"We are today serving notice if your truck is being used in these illegal blockades, your corporate accounts will be frozen. The insurance on your vehicle will be suspended,"
Blocking up city streets for weeks, disrupting people's lives, preventing emergency services from operating because of it, all while "protesting" when >90% of truckers were vaccinated, far greater than the average population, oh and all major trucking companies supported vaccines and mandates for obvious reasons. Meanwhile a select few "truckers" some funded by US interests, were, as you call it.... protesting. Give me a break.

- dragonwriter 3y ago> An analysis of the data by Newsweek found that California, Texas, Florida, New York and Michigan topped the list of the highest number of U.S. donations by state. California, Texas, Florida, and New York also top the list of the highest number of people in the US by state (and while Michigan is the whole way down at #10 rather than #5, the gap between #10 and #5 isn’t that big – much smaller than the gap between #4 an #5), so this much of the analysis says very little, because the very large size differences of the few largest states are masking anything interesting that might exist in the distribution.
- barbazoo 3y agoTrue, superfluous part of the quote I pasted. The point was that donations came mostly from the US.
