Protests over vaccine mandates and Covid-19 restrictions widened across Canada, with truck blockades halting commercial traffic at critical border crossings including the Ambassador Bridge into Detroit.
The structure that connects to Windsor, Ontario, was shut down in both directions late Monday. The land crossing is the most important link for goods moving between Canada and the U.S. and a crucial artery for auto parts suppliers and manufacturers.
Another border crossing at Coutts, Alberta, which had already been partly blocked by truckers, was also completely closed for a time, the Canadian border agency said. It’s the main route for the province’s commercial vehicles bound for the U.S. and one of the busiest border posts in western Canada.
The blockades represent a potentially dramatic escalation for protests that began in late January when a convoy of truckers moved into Ottawa, paralyzing Canada’s capital. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau warned that the demonstrators threatened to hobble the economy and undermine democracy.

Democracy=dictatorship
LOL
Is Biden stupid enough to follow Trudeau if it spreads to the US?
Life without truckers will make a Zombie Apocalypse look like a family reunion with two drunk Uncles. It will seemingly happen overnight.
And lockdowns and other totalitarian edicts made under cover of medical emergency somehow didn’t hobble the economy or destroy democracy. Sheesh.
I believe that this is the only way to defeat the tyranny of our leftist Kakistocracy.
Those of us in flyover country could last as long as a week to 10 days without truckers. DC? New York? San Fransicko? Maybe hours.
“Trudeau warned that the demonstrators threatened to hobble the economy and undermine democracy”
Trudeau rules by fiat. There’s no democracy left to undermine.
Yep, people may be pissed know because the cracker shelves are empty but just wait...
Wait til the gas pumps are all shut down. No milk unless you own a cow...
Seriously, the question should stop right here “Is Biden stupid enough.......?”
The answer: Yes he is.
The scary part: What will Poopy Pants do about it?
Is Biden stupid enough to follow Trudeau if it spreads to the US?
The Geppettos behind him, however, probably are that stupid.
Did they bring their Nazi and Confederate flags?
Finally, our side has discovered what the left has known for a long time - activism and organization is the way to get your way.
...organization is the way...
