The Canadian truckers blockade is posing a risk to the auto industry's supply chain and U.S. officials were in close touch with their counterparts in Canada on the issue, the White House said on Wednesday.

The nearly two-week long protests against COVID-19 pandemic mandates and other restrictions have at times this week halted or sharply slowed traffic at the Ambassador Bridge that connects Detroit, Michigan, and Windsor, Ontario. The bridge, Canada's busiest link to the United States, accounts for about 25 per cent of trade between Canada and the United States as it is used to transport vehicles and parts and agricultural products.

Chrysler-parent Stellantis said the Windsor Assembly Plant had to cut short its first and second shifts on Tuesday over parts shortages caused by the disruptions.

This is NO longer a peaceful protest it is terrorism and it is NOT OK😢

We all know. Stop

The terrorist blockade

But 'mah freedumb'! More distractions from a party that isn't even Canadian.

Dr Fauci poses....posed a risk to us all....chicom

disinformation campaign

I'll bet there's some real muscle in Teamsters TeamstersCanada who could both help out by borrowing a few tow trucks & perhaps some friendly persuasion during off hours to motivate these protesters. Canadians in Canada would appreciate help to get supply chains back to normal

Is and there will be layoffs

Stop Covid-19 restorations!!!

The TruckerConvoy2022 are deliberately blocking roads & border crossing in their insurrection now spreading to other nations. The world supply chains will be infected with prices rising. Every nation should bring in their military to quash this insanity & arrest them immediately

They’re not truckers, they’re terrorists.

Lol did grandpa joe just figure that out? 🤣🤣🤣

If USA and Canada just lifted all mandates this would be over tomorrow 🤷🏼‍♂️ be instead they complain about supply chain issues… what about basic right issues?…

Continuing to divide Democracies & abandoning the working class

Maybe they’ll wake up and say enough is enough

If this doesn't wake up Canadians that we have elected fools at all levels of government? Why do people run for office if they don't like governing? The protesters seem to know what they're doing; let's tap into that pool of talent next election. This antiall is well done.

Stop fake truckers! The real truckers want to work. hateconvoy

So why are these truckers now making fake posts of huge crowds and supporters that don't exist? If they were sincere about their cause they wouldn't have to lie.

Ya right

They don’t give a damn about our country. Only care about being a bunch of thugs with big trucks acting like bullies!! Go home and get to work, or is unemployment or CERB easier than actual work.

The truckers are making up fake posts of crowds supposedly in support of them but it isn't its crowds from decades ago in another country they do the same with pics of Amish. This isn't about freedom from vaccines its about something else. Time for Canadians to wake-up.

I guess Biden/Trudeau should have thought of that before putting in place an unnecessary mandate.

Then maybe Biden should help cut off the US funding they’re getting

Two and fine them. Make them pay 90 days storage for their trucks as well.
