Is it really as bad as the /r/ottawa reddit post claims? I think things have gotten better recently, but surely everyone agrees that blasting train horns 24/7 in a densely populated residential area isn't "peaceful", right? That misrepresentation alone makes me skeptical about the rest of the truckers' claims of peacefulness. The arson attempt comes to mind. Are the truckers & co. really getting upset about people walking by with masks on? Does anyone know how many truckers camped out in Ottawa are American? Some more predictions: I can almost guarantee that the blockades at the border won't last more than another day or two, because they disrupt corporate commerce. Only blockades targeting city centers and federal buildings will be relatively un-policed. Disruption of government and liberals will be where this movement finds itself, and the small business closures in the area will be considered an expendable casualty.
