The cross-border vaccine mandates for truckers in/out of Canada have caused a stir among the trucking community. By Sunday, truckers from around the country embarked in several convoys headed to Ottawa, Canada’s capital, to protest a federal vaccine mandate, according to CBC News. 

“Called the “Freedom Rally” against the federal mandate for cross-border truckers, Canadian truck drivers are furious with the Jan. 15 order to force unvaxxed drivers into two-week quarantine and COVID-19 testing before crossing into Canada. At least 26,000 out of the 160,000 (16.3%) drivers who make frequent trips, hauling goods across the Canada-US will be sidelined.

The goal of the convoy is to arrive in Ottawa later this week and create a large enough presence to demand lawmakers to put an end to the mandate. ”

Here are some views from the ground of the convoy rolling down highways to Ottawa.

STAND WITH THE TRUCKERS — The GO FUND ME is still accepting donations — you don’t have to be driving in this convoy to help the truckers with fuel and food!

The GO FUND ME fund is approaching $4M , HOWEVER, there are also suggestions of >50,000 trucks participating + >500,000 ordinary citizens intending to arrive in Ottawa as support — they will need every $$$$$ raised.
