Besides they are among the ones who have overcome the dependency on government handouts, been working long hours, sometimes in very difficult conditions, to keep us fed over the past two years.

Also the fact that the truckers spend most of their time in their cab, they pose minimal risk for spreading the virus.

I think to offer the dispensation from the mandate, and then take it back by our PM and his advisors, in a very short period of time, shows how dictatorial the present Liberal government really is. And I can appreciate how incensed the truckers would be by this behavior.

Right now we are stuck with a messy situation, not only in Ottawa, but at our borders.

Sure... truckers spent most of their time in their Cab

But how about when they are off the job? do they spend most of that time in their house?
