Why "Canadian Truckers for Freedom 2022" is pure, unadulterated grift.

Bear with me as I explain this really, really slowly, and feel free to correct me if I misunderstand something.

First, many, many really stupid truckers are apparently furious over, well, this:



Now, read that very, very carefully to make sure you understand it -- that the contentious vaccine mandate would require Canadian truckers entering Canada to be vaccinated. Or quarantine. Or be tested. You get the idea.

Let's go over that again -- the Canadian truckers who would be inconvenienced by this mandate are truckers crossing from the United States into Canada. Do you understand that? Seriously, don't read any further until you understand that. It's not rocket surgery, it's pretty simple.

So ...we're good? All right ... onward.

Now, for a Canadian trucker to be entering Canada, he must be in the United States. And for him to be in the United States, he must have entered the United States by crossing from Canada into the United States. Again, let me know if I'm going too fast here, because all of this is critically important.

And here's the kicker -- if said trucker is unvaccinated, then there is no way he could have entered the United States in the first place, as explained in the very next paragraph of that Blog TO piece:



Let me repeat that for the truly stupid among you:

Canadian truckers ... will also be barred from entering the United States at land borders without proof of vaccination starting Jan. 22 ...

So, let me explain that one more time so there is no confusion: The vaccine mandate for Canadian truckers returning to Canada is absolutely and utterly irrelevant, since those dumbfuck stupid unvaccinated truckers are barred from entering the United States in the first place.

But, hey, Tamara Lich needs another winter coat:

I don't expect the MSM to cover itself in glory fawning over this contrived outrage, but it would be most excellent if some journalist would, when interviewing one of these angry truckers, ask the simple question:

"How does the vaccine mandate affect you PERSONALLY?"

And if the trucker says, "Well, it means that I have to quarantine coming back across the border into Canada ...", that's when the journalist should interrupt and say, "But if you're unvaccinated, you can't get INTO the US. So that doesn't answer my question."

There are such obvious questions to ask, and I don't expect to hear any of them.

Once again, a totally bogus controversy for people to waste brain cells thinking about when there are truly pressing crises that need attending to.
