great music but it's noticeable how repeated are the views of the same trucks and also the number of cars and pickups in this "truck" convoy Probably because the footage was taken by one person in one location over a limited timescale? possibly but there looks to be a lot of cars in some of the other shots I've seen
I think a lot of people have jumped on the bandwagon, Trudeau is a very long way from Canada's favourite Premier.
There are a lot of banners from many dissatisfied Canadian groups with many different agendas

Fair play to them. It's hard to imagine an occupation in which you are less likely to contract or pass on an infectious disease, given the largely solitary nature of the job. This is simply punishment for disobeying State Orders and refusing the Dr Mengele vaccine. Hopefully the stand-off will result in serious food and fuel shortages. as over 80% of Canadians are vaccinated and it wouldn't make any difference to them ...... I would very much doubt that Many of the truckers in the convoy are vaccinated. It's not an anti-vaccine protest, it's a pro-freedom protest. interesting

It's not an anti-vaccine protest, it's a pro-freedom protest. Yes I'm quite sure, that Canadian truckers, like British truckers are extremely altruistic (at least judging by your post signature)

agree .... there might be two, three or even four times as many silent supporters in which case it would only be ............. 27:4 Or 15:15 as over 80% of Canadians are vaccinated and it wouldn't make any difference to them ...... I would very much doubt that

Some of those 30 might personally be in support but find it easier to follow the group. It's not unusual for this to happen. Animal herding instinct. agree .... there might be two, three or even four times as many silent supporters in which case it would only be ............. 27:4

Just a bit breezy here yesterday, had calmed down by the evening, still calm but the next one is due tonight, again hitting Scotland and then down the east coast. Make sure your mainbrace is tightly spliced JohnV . Night before last there was a short length of ali pipe lying on the deck and the wind was making it roll up and down ..... it sounded like a bloody runaway train !
and no .... I was not chuffed to bits
been out today and tried to ensure there is nothing else left like that
You be careful as well, from your photos I would guess that you are a lot more exposed than me

nope ........ but you estimated that 5% of their supporters are contributing to their coffers and 105,000 people have contributed ... then work it out for yourself
That would be millions then. 2.1 million on those figures. exactly what I calculated and exactly what I posted ..... "Millions of people might be supporting it"
Your post, your calculation, my post, my calculation = agreement ..... so what's your complaint?

Incidentally millions of people might be supporting it ..... on line
but how many are Canadian and how many of them are truckers ?
Did I say "Millions of Canadian truckers are supporting it"? nope and neither did I .... I said supporters ........ but you estimated that 5% of their supporters are contributing to their coffers and 105,000 people have contributed ... then work it out for yourself

I notice Trump is supporting the Canadian Convoy ..... figures Millions of people are supporting it so what's your point exactly? personally, if Trump supported anything I would look at it twice
Incidentally millions of people might be supporting it ..... on line
but how many are Canadian and how many of them are truckers ?
Let's be honest, there might be hundreds of trucks and truckers involved but when there are literally hundreds of thousands of truckers in Canada
and according to the figures I have read (and not just in Trudeau's speech) the percentage of Canadian truckers who are vaccinated is about 83% to 87% (Trudeau says nearly 90% but he's a politician ..... alledgedly)
