Any cultural issues that arise - forget your traditions and so on...
Am quite sure that in all the above situations - even a slight suggestion of such solution would cause a huge uproar.
Regardless of what legality of the truckers protest, I think its having desired effects: the conversation mandates is getting up to speed in the country..

All arguments are not equal, and require different approaches.

It wouldn’t make much sense if they did. It would be just as bad for the right as for the left if Trudeau just gave in. I’m sure the conservatives know this and that’s why they’re hoping it lasts.

Millions is probably over exaggerating. Do you even have a number of those “coerced” or “affected” by the mandates? Not just the mask wearing, social distancing mandates. How many people have lost their jobs or homes? Any stats out?
The truckers association seems to think these “trucker” protesters are the minority in their group. Apparently 90% are vaccinated and unaffected by the federal mandate.

Just some things the locals and Canadians gave them to help support with their stay more comfortable lol.

Lol. Saw some guys bbqing on a live YouTube feed. Looked like a party atmosphere more than a protest.

The problem is we are in a race that many can't keep up with.
Who are the majority of them getting and buying these businesses? Some will be alright but the top is buying up the broken.
It's happening all around the world

Fishfood, that’s the world we’ve been living in for awhile now. It’s a rat race. There is no Mayberry anymore. I’m not saying it’s not sad, but it’s certainly not new.
