I'm with you on that logic/understanding. It makes no sense to
impose strict jab-mandates on truckers who spend very little
time mingling in crowded environments. The whole point of
lockdowns and restrictions was/is to discourage crowding.
The trucker's protest on Parliament Hill tommorrow ought to be
interesting!

The federal transport minister says that the shortages are not
due to trucking problems. He says it's due to shortage of
labour higher up the chain before shipments. I don't know if i
can trust the minister. He sounded very upset about the
truckers taking a stance and organzing a protest to the
mandates.
