The cross border vaccine mandate for truckers in/out of Canada is now in effect. The U.S. vaccine mandate takes effect on January 22nd.
It will take a few days to see the consequences, but there will be consequences.
Keep in mind, any impact is taking place in a supply chain system that is already tenuous and unstable at best. A small disruption that may have been minimally significant against a fully operational supply chain, is more likely to be a much bigger disruption in a supply chain that is already under a severe amount of demand side stress. Somewhere in the range of 16,000 to 38,000 daily loads are likely to be impacted.
When questioned about this, Canadian Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Dominic Leblanc says the trucking industry “has had adequate time to prepare for this.” Keep in mind, the mandate was announced 45 days ago (November 30th). According to the Canadian government, changing the structural rules for all the logistics and commerce in cross border shipping, 45 days is enough notice. WATCH:
CANADA – […] “I think you probably won’t see that movement … that the government’s looking for,” retail expert Bruce Winder told CTV News Channel on Saturday when asked if the effort will encourage truckers to get vaccinated.
[…] The mandate throws a “major wrench” in the Canadian and North American supply chains, he added, with grocers, food producers, the auto parts industry and building materials among the sectors expected to be most affected.
“I really hope that we’re not at the stage where you see food insecurity, where you’re actually going to grocery stores and there’s nothing on the shelf,” Winder said. “That could be the worst-case scenario.”
Mike Millian, president of the Private Motor Truck Council of Canada, told CTV News Channel on Saturday that there were as many 23,000 vacancies at the end of the third quarter of 2021, with his group’s own studies showing that roughly 20 per cent of Canadian truck drivers operating across the border are unvaccinated.
[…] “If we remove a fifth of that workforce, we’re going to see shortages on shelves and we’re going to see inflation of prices, because the cost to bring this stuff here is going to go up.” (read more)
The truth is no one knows how bad the disruption will be. What we do know is that there will be disruption, and there is no infrastructure for a level of rig-switching at the border crossing region that could accommodate changing rigs, drop-offs and/or pick-ups or driver transfers on the scale that is being discussed. The logistics here are a total mess.
Keep your fingers crossed, but prepare for FUBAR.
We have a friend who drives for a trucking company. They have 10 drivers who go in to Canada, he is one. Company told them – you all must be vaxx’d. Seven (7) refusing… company now has 3 drivers (for Canada).

I don't know who you talked to that gave you that information, but it's logistically impossible to sustain. I've worked booking trucks across the border for 5yrs and it is significantly affected everyone involved. Many companies will go under if this is not reversed.

there is no room for it. The I-81 crossing at the St. Lawrence is near my home. You can't cross drop a load and then pick up there. Ever seen Windsor/Detroit? No way to do that there. How about the Rainbow bridge at the Falls? Nope, no room there.

Typical of government, coercion and force. Get the shot or lose your job, we will starve them into submission. Instead truckers should walk out of even domestic deliveries as solidarity to their countrymen,so should doctors, border police take sick days,and every other sector. Peacefully stay home and let the collapse they want. happen .
The rich doubled their money during the fakedemic because they knew the plan ahead of time.
Bezos knew from day one. I used to work at Amazon and he sent an email to all of us who worked for corporate. I knew right then this was all planned and was not ending in”15 days”. I do believe whole heartedly that all the profiteers knew.
If the government can decide where and when food can be shipped, that is the ball game. I was wondering if all the bad news about vaccine death and injury is allowed to create vaccine resistance. At the same time they mandate the lethal shots to workers in essential services expecting them to refuse. A sneaky way of disabling essential services.
Almost 40 million Canadians and they’re playing chicken with the choice between not eating or taking a death shot mandated by a fruity twink. But not just any fruity twink, the very fruity twink that they elected to lead them and represent them in global affairs. How did you get here Canada? What literally in the f@#& has happened to you? Sometimes you look and sound and feel like America, but then you remind us exactly how much you aren’t. This is an embarrassment. America is not perfect but we still have men willing to fight against tyranny. A rarity in the Anglosphere and non existent in the Commonwealth. Just remember this when yet again it is us who has to save the world from itself. To be the example of freedom. Everybody hates the police until they are victims of a crime. Then they are their first call. Remember all the stupid shit you said about us being warmongers and polluters and ‘world police’ when you were living in the stability and prosperity we created. Remember them when the needle is feing forced into your arm and you’re too malnourished to fight it. I have an Aussie friend who used to lecture me about Americans being obsessed with guns. He now apologizes to me every day for his blind stupidity. Everybody’s principles are equally as good when they’re not being tested. But now that the test has come America’s founding principles again reveal why they are unrivaled in all the history of civilization. I’m sorry so many chose to learn this lesson the hard way. Goodbye Canada. Hope you don’t run out of deer.
United Nations. UE/UK/Elites/Big corp/ radical democrats/Vatican/New world order. 🇺🇸 is a major leader NWO movement. USA politicians are corrupt. The American working class “people” ( global working class), who work hard, pay taxes and keep the world economy turning and turning will suffer, starve, and be homeless & jobless in the near future. I hope the UN has a financial plan to keep the world economy going, because the USA no longer has a dedicated working class. Small businesses closing. Homelessness. Hunger. Poverty. Govt pushed plp toward depression, drugs,
sickness, and hopeless. Migrants didn’t hike across countries to be poor, homeless, and hungry too. I guess the 🇺🇸 is taking care of immigrants before natural born Americans. But they will be dropped too. I would leave the USA sooner than later.
No, SCOTUS said that the OSHA-enforced mandate for companies w/ 100+ employees was an overreach, and that OSHA is not the agency that should be setting social policy (or something to that effect). They pushed it back to Congress and the states to set such sweeping policies. They did NOT forbid companies from setting mandates, they just ruled it is outside of OSHA’s purview.
didnt they reverse it? https://www.cp24.com/news/feds-make-last-minute-reversal-on-vaccine-mandate-for-truckers-1.5737465
Thanks for sharing that.
Do a web search for “biden i did that stickers.” Pick up a gross. Paste them on every empty shelf in every supermarket you frequent. Ram it up the leftists’ collective prison wallets.
This guy is a liar these vaccines do not stop covid
I lost my job as a amazon delivery driver in 2021 because they were about to force the jab on their people. i also will not wear the badge of fear mask to work. This is the PRIMARY cause of the “worker” shortage. It is self induced harm via corporation i.e. “modern governments”. This is the murder of conscience i.e. the “elite” of the world projecting their 0 empathy and 0 conscience on the entire earth. These “elites” know that many “3rd and 4th worlders” have almost 0 conscience when it comes to working for their bellies and will submit to almost anything for food. The “elites” end goal is submission.
i truly wonder if there is a Divine Court, how is what has happened on the earth for the past say 350 yrs not violated every rule in the book. Because if you learn what man’s feeble attempt to define under duress in legal terms. Well mankind has basically suffered this from mankind’s starting point.
This is just part of deliberately bringing the economy, and therefore also society, and therefore also the post-war world order and perhaps even western civilization itself to its knees.
Jesus is King!
