Later this week, a mandate ordering injection of all truckers with Pfizer or Moderna goes into effect in Canada, risking collapse of our shaky supply chain, and dramatically raising the cost of living. For anyone not independently wealthy, a rising cost of living translates into a falling quality of life, so for the majority of us this is very bad news.
"Canada will require all truckers entering from the USA to show proof of vaccination starting on January 15, as part of its fight against Covid."
Industry experts say this could result in the loss of 22,000 truckers, about 10% of the workforce. The transport industry is already dangerously short on truckers, since this comes after the loss of 18,000 truckers in the past few months, who quit in advance of this mandate taking effect.
Just 2 months ago, rainstorms triggered mudslides and knocked out roads here in Canada's most Western province, British Columbia. I documented the empty grocery store shelves:
Officially, inflation is 5% right now, the highest in years. Unofficially, it's closer to 30% for most necessities, like food. And it's no secret that the supply chain is a complete nightmare right now, with some goods taking 6 months or longer to arrive at their destination, if they arrive at all. Mail service between many countries is currently suspended. The world is nearly at a complete standstill. Foods are not being produced in the same quantities they were, and they're not being transported as efficiently as they were. Prices are up, availability is down, people are suffering.
Further assaults to the transport industry will mean more bare shelves and shortages. This is mandated hardship.
Banning as much as 1/4 of all truckers, when this vital industry is already strained, is incredibly risky and foolish. At some point, it won't just be reduced selection and higher prices, it will be bare shelves, hoarding, panic, price fixing, lineups, and hungry bellies. Risking that is diabolical.
What about freedom?
Are we still the true North strong and free, if we force people to take injections so they can feed their children?
Mandates are like restrictions. While restrictions limit us from doing what we want to do, mandates force us to do things we don't want to do. Both are destructive to Liberty.
"To fight Covid"
The consequences aside, what about the fact that the "vaccines" don't stop Covid?! Blocking the movement of unvaccinated truckers does little or nothing at all to stop any virus, and the main reason is that the injections don't stop transmission! Vaccinated truckers spread Covid just as easily (or even more easily, because they have a false sense of immunity) as any other.
What is the intended purpose of this mandate? They say they're trying to encourage more vaccinations, and stop transmission. We already know mandating failed injections can't stop transmission, but what about encouraging uptake? Yes, some holdouts will decide to keep their jobs, and accept the injections. This will result in more accidents, just like those soccer players dropping dead in the middle of the field in recent months.
But yeah... it's all about health and safety! ; )
Omicron has reached almost every household in the world in a matter of weeks. At this point, even completely closing the borders and stopping all transportation wouldn't do anything. Pretending that injecting truckers is going to keep the virus from spreading is 100% ridiculous.
What it's really about
For the elite, moves like this accomplish multiple goals at the same time:
- Get a few more people injected and onto the digital passport system.
- Destabilize the supply chain, driving up costs, fear, division, and misery.
- Justify more government interventions.
Truckers were declared "essential" and an integral part of the supply chain, and made to work through the first 20 months of Covid. Now that there's an injection (which doesn't stop transmission), they're being fired if they won't take it, risking the health and safety of everyone?
Hmmmm. It's almost as though destabilization - and even risking depopulation - are acceptable outcomes to the "leaders" and "experts".
To the truckers: Hold your ground! We can't do this without you. If you say "NO", you will be victorious! Strike, if you have to! Make them fire you. Do NOT quit. You have the numbers, and just like in other vital industries, if you unite against the mandates they will be postponed or cancelled!
These "vaccines" - along with mandates and passports to increase their acceptance - have no place in a free society!
I think it's time for the people to take our countries, our markets, and our supply chains back from these globalist tyrants, before it's too late.

They are indeed trying to disrupt the supply chain and fuck the economy. And of course get a few more people jabbed as a bonus...kind of like in a video game where you know you're losing anyway, so you just go ape-shit and try to cause as much destruction as you can before you're KO.
"this comes after the loss of 18,000 truckers in the past few months, who quit in advance of this mandate taking effect" yeah that was strange when so many of my favourite brands of staples like soy milk or gluten-free pasta were going out of stock...permanently. At first stores didn't talk about it, and then they just called it the "supply chain shortage" or disruption or whatever. And of course the same thing with the "healthcare" system.
They are denying alcohol and cannabis to people who aren't fully "vaccinated" in Quebec and other parts of Canada now! That will lead directly to suffering and deaths. Horrible situation, and all avoidable!! : (

Keep putting out these wake up posts DRUTTER ))) we are running out of time.
We've had a week and a half off of our restaurant job losing pay because they decided to close for the holidays. Now I wonder if when we return this weekend (take out only) they will make enough money to stay open. My partner and I work together so both incomes at risk. I also wonder how much time we have until we're not allowed to work there anymore. We were outside today and it was lethally cold. We wondered how anyone who becomes homeless would survive if they dodged the concentration camps. The compliance of the masses get the handlers to the next level of their game, not back to normal.
Yes, they think they can behave themselves and comply their way back to freedom. I asked my wife today, has that ever happened in history? She can't think of a single time that compliance was how people got their freedom back from tyrants.

Great point.

We've had this problem internally for the last year too - Thai government requires full vaxx for INTER-PROVINCE truckers - so we've had big issues with supply chain from Bangkok to the north where I live. It continues.
From Thailand? We've seen maps of 5G there and Thailand is completely covered! Seems like it has been for a while. Any thoughts or observations on that? How are you feeling regarding that.
Yes, 5G is everywhere here - "state of the art internet" so-called. Cheap and incredibly fast. NO ONE is talking about health effects. I refuse to use my cell much or keep it on my person, much to most people's disgust. When I check on my connection here in semi-rural Chiang Mai in the north, it flits between 2G and 4G. Very rare that the service actually delivers 5G.
Do what I can to mitigate on the health front...
these vaccine mandates are whats causing people to believe that being vaccinated will stop the spread of covid. You can still get and spread covid if you are vaccinated & boosted.

If the injections don't do anything to stop transmission, but many people who take them THINK they stop transmission, the injections actually have the net effect of increasing transmission.

Does this vaccine actually solve anything among people or injecting fear to people body rather. Quite Pathetic how this holds
All I can think about is the transition to self-driving cars... weirdly enough. Surely this breeds the perfect excuse for mass automation/elimination of jobs across the board. Fun.

You are the 39th most reputable account on Hive now. Nice! I am the 1060th most reputable account.
As in Reputation score (79)?
Woof this is embarrassing I should have programmed a new one already.
Heh yeah, apparently you've just been sent down to #40 by @abh12345. The top 100 must be very competitive. I'm only just breaking into the top 1000.
#1 is @hbd.funder, approaching 91 rep.
Just numbers, for the most part. But it's hard to gain that much rep without making a fair bit of HIVE in the process. It's somewhat of an indicator of success, anyway. I just feel blessed that my posts regularly achieve 30 USD+ nowadays, that's the start of something significant.
Meh, Hive goes x100: let's how you handle $3000 posts.

News,flash; Ten Foot touch poles are still on back order, Current Inventory still stuck on in bound Chinese container ship queued outside Vancouver harbor. Canadians forced to improvise and make their own ten foot poles.

Yup, the vaccinate mandate and vaccine passes don't do anything to stop the spread.
The same tired and old talking point that somehow taking a vaccine makes the virus die off doesn't make sense. Viruses mutate and most never fully go away anyway.
Vaccines only help the body of the person who had the vaccine injected. MRNA "vaccines"aren't vaccines either, they just inject spike proteins into us that don't last long and need continually re-upped. It's a total joke!
It is obvious that they can do nothing to stop a virus or bug if it is indeed going to be transmitted from human to human. They will only stop their power trip when we stop complying fully. We will probably see mass shortages the further they try to enforce their insane mandates and unjust 'laws'. I have hope that the People will unite as one and refuse this global pandemic of tyranny in the end.
