Erik Baron works for a northern Michigan trucking company in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan.
“We do a lot of cross-border business. We are one of many companies in America and Canada being hurt by these unconstitutional vaccine mandates,” Baron told The Epoch Times. “We have lost several drivers due to this. Our efforts to the government fell on deaf ears. The economies on both sides of the border are suffering. It’s time for people on both sides of the border to stand up for our constitutional rights and freedoms. We will be proud to stand with our Canadian friends on Saturday to let the governments on both sides know enough is enough.
“Right now we’re trying to get the word out, to get as many patriots as possible to head to the border here in Sault Ste. Marie on Saturday,” Baron said, “As for myself, [I’m] just like the rest, a hard-working American tired of the government overreach and our freedoms being taken away!”

It's a mostly peaceful convoy.

I read on the local news that it's only 1000-2000 Truckers....
Does anybody have some evidence of how many there are ?

Only?
Only one or two thousand rigs each twenty-five meters long, plus as many civilian passenger vehicles, plus the convoy coming north from the States, plus whomever they pick up in the next 2000 km (by far the more populous stretch)?
Only?
Don't know if Ottawa's Saturday commuters are going to share your adjective.
That said, there are much higher numbers floating around. Counting them would be very difficult.

I've renamed the thread to make the title punchier and more direct.
And since it concerns a Canadian event, I also moved it from "U.S. Political News" to "World News & Affairs".

"Please get vaccinated", Justin? Why don't you just mandate it? You don't have to ask. Use those dictatorial powers you're becoming so fond of.

He may be strong on pronouns, but he's awfully weak on conjunctions. That's stay safe or get "vaccinated".

50,000 estimated.. 100k long before the split.
Traffic Cams Disabled in Ottawa in anticipation.

Truth is, they did it first, and this is their second.

Apparently, now that it's clear the convoy isn't going to just peter out and vanish, the glad-handers are moving in.
The mealy-mouthed bastards didn't want anything to do with it until it became obvious that there's enough support for it to be worth pandering to.
(Erin O'Toole is the leader of the Conservative Party in Canada - a sort of MitchMcConnell McCanuck, I guess you could say.)
