You have to have proof of vaccination to cross the US-Canada border. In
either direction. 90% of Canadian truckers have been vaccinated so there aren’t that many unvaccinated Canadian truckers. Some of these, though, in their rigs, supplemented by a bunch of other anti-vaxxers in their cars, pickups, vans, etc, are blocking some major roads.
It’s a pretty big deal especially in the car manufacturing business, where the closure of the bridge between Windsor and Detroit has resulted in a parts and component shortage sufficient to cause Ford, for example, to cut back a shift or two at a couple of its plants.
Apparently police can’t get the appropriate tow trucks to help them move the tractor trailers because of the tow truck operators’ fear of losing business after this little tantrum is all over. There aren’t many operators in the specialized business of tractor-trailer hauling.
