won't make it to downtown but will be redirected to a parking lot somewhere.

Rumour that the original Convoy will move to Toronto.

Ambassador Bridge, where 100s of millions of car parts cross between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario every day, has been shut or 3 days. So that puts auto parts workers jobs in danger. There have been layoffs. But FOX News says these Trucker occupations are between the common man and elites. (Representative from the Canadian autoparts manufacturing association just said this is putting future investment in danger). Way to try to align populists in Canada to those in the USA. We get American news in Canada and see how populism is really all about authoritarianism in the USA. It benefits the Plutocrats with policy for them while the common man is in a cult, gets no policy to make their lives better, at at times faces charges from police. But they get to parade.

1. Coming from Quebec? or from Atlantic?

Who the hell are these people? Put up some road blocks and if they are not on a legitimate transport run, send them back. The police in Toronto broke the previous one up pretty quickly, does that mean the protesters "can't let them win"?

I am sick of this.

4. I don't know much about the slow convoy coming but the Feds did open

a federal parking lot in the west end so probably they are doing what Police in Toronto did and sending them to a designated parking lot, where they have to take public transportation to the demonstration. I hope that is what Ottawa is doing.

3. Yes. Check their manifest... if it shows delivery of product to a destination,

let them proceed.
