Trudeau slams 'fear mongering' over COVID vaccine mandate for truckers TruckersConvoy2022

“I regret that the Conservative Party and conservative politicians are fear mongering to Canadians about the supply chain, but the reality is that vaccination is how we’re going to get through this,” Trudeau told reporters when asked about supply chain disruptions resulting from the policy.

Pierre Poilievre, finance critic for the main federal opposition Conservative Party, last week called the requirements a “vaccine vendetta against our hardworking truckers” that will drive up inflation and result in “empty shelves” at stores. Alberta Premier Kenney tweeted on the situation.to delay the mandate, saying everyone should be vaccinated and Canada is aligned with the United States, its largest trading partner.

Canadian Manufactures & Exporters President and Chief Executive Dennis Darby said he and other manufacturing lobbies spoke with Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne on Friday about problems caused by the vaccine mandate.“Our supply chain in North America is a very, very efficient supply chain, but it’s not very resilient,” Darby said in an interview on Monday. “It doesn’t have a lot of slack.

After the meeting with Champagne, Darby’s group and some 30 other trade associations called for concrete action to tackle supply chain problems, including reversing the trucker inoculation mandate.started off from Vancouver on Sunday on its way to protest the mandate in the capital city of Ottawa.

You are the fear monger

JT is an ass. I’m 3x vaccinated so no need to profile me. Can they definitively show through data and contact tracing that truckers are super spreaders? Last I knew, they live a solitary life. They can wear masks at transactions. JT is up the creek w/o a paddle. As usual.

Fuck CCP

Here's a couple for ya

TRUST HIM. OBEY. GET QUADRUPLE JABBED. NEVER QUESTION. STAY AT HOME.

Interesting the PM claiming 'fear mongering' while that is what is government has been doing for two years to scare people and grab more power.

Funny how he uses that word “fear mongering” when all he and media have done it the whole time. The government can’t stop a transmissible virus. Bottom line. Vaccinated or not we’re speading it. Mandates only create division. TruckersForFreedom EndAllMandates

The truckers are addressing far more than mandates for themselves. They feel a peaceful approach is best - I'm no longer sure non-violence will work.

Trudeau doesn't much like it when anyone but him and his cronies do the fear mongering. He hates competition.

Fear mongering? What a joke. Watching shelves go bare and just ignoring it is what he wants. Sounding the alarm before people starve is what any sane person does, calling it fear mongering shows signs of mental defects.

I always feel a bit flummoxed when I see Canadians acting like the worst Americans.

The same man who told us vaccines were the ONLY way to beat COVID? Even tho the CDC has now come out and said there are other affective remedies?

Weird, because, as an Albertan who went to Safeway this morning ... all seemed good. No shortages, no price increases. My understanding is that approx 85% of truckers are vaccinated anyways so the issue is those last 15% or so that are the actual cause of this so-called problem.

Every day Trudeau becomes more out touch with real people .

Fear mongering?! He's all but put targets on the unvaxed backs. Trudeau is acting criminally at this point.

😆 Ha freedom is a fear ?

What’s ridiculous is the US has the same mandate. Even if Canada lifted the mandate, truckers could still not cross the border without a vaccine. 85% of truckers are vaccinated, but hey, let’s give the 15% what they want. 🤦🏼‍♀️
