The Ambassador Bridge is the busiest U.S.-Canadian border crossing, carrying 25% of all trade between the two countries. The standoff comes at a time when the auto industry is already struggling to maintain production in the face of pandemic-induced shortages of computer chips and other supply-chain disruptions.
The Freedom Convoy has been promoted and cheered on by many Fox News personalities and attracted support from the likes of former President Donald Trump. The protests have spread outside Canada as well. Demonstrators angry over pandemic restrictions drove toward Paris in scattered convoys of camper vans, cars and trucks Friday in an effort to blockade the French capital, despite a police ban.And in a bulletin to local and state law enforcement officers, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security warned that truck protests may be in the works in the United States.
Put the auto company big wigs in the semis for a few weeks with the mandates and see how they feel. Guess their bonus is more important than truckers rights
Seems like an Army Corps of Engineers is needed to build a new bridge around this problem.
I work in the auto industry that is effected by this. I was sent home early on Wednesday and haven't been back to work since. I 100% support these truckers! The virus mandates have gotten ridiculous with government overreach. Keep it up truckers!!
