Trucker convoy Descends on Ottawa!
This is Canada, not the USA! The first stunt they pull, they will get an 800 dollar ticket for “Stunting” and they impound the vehicle.
Want to see how long their block aid will last as they tow away the trucks?
Next this group is not made up of 90% of the pop, it is like 3%, a very tiny minority. So when they upset the regular folks, the police will have to act.
The biggest killer of cops?
The year 2021 was a year where so many cops died from…
COVID-19
So the ones who are left will have little to no sympathy for these rednecks.
Like most extreme protests it will be covered as big news, but they don’t have the backing of the population and the politicians who are there are People part of Canada or Conservative reform alliance party
they are playing to the base
If anything this protest will backfire on them all and drive people to the liberals for fear of being anywhere near these idiots.
Remember the first rule of Canadians politics, we are a small, silly little country.
This protest is how large? Millions? Not
A few trucks and a few thousand people. That is it!
But it gets eyes to watch news and see commercials
It has the former guy posting he thinks it is genius… that alone is enough to stop and drive back home
Lastly, keep this in mind. We at CPC deal with the feds, but the vast majority of people deal with provincial regulations and mandates
The fed have so very few
Now, if you are an idiot, or Jason Kenny, PM of Alberta you hold a news conference to support the truckers. Only to be asked if he approved the Fed dropping their mandates, why has he not dropped all of his?
Because he is holding his medical system together by duct tape and prayer.
It is a testament to the strength of doctors and nurses that we have health care at all. Kenny and Legault and all premiers know just how close they are to the wall
This stunt has raised a few dollars, but only a few. 4 million this morning? A little more?
Out of 38 million people
less than 1 in 10 Canadians parted with a dollar…. WOOOO big war chest
NOT!
But news media sell the sizzle not the steak
Okay so I looked
I checked
I searched
What am I not seeing?
I saw one picture of a crowd of people in the ground.
No pictures of the convoy
No picture of all those screaming trucks
no mention of numbers.
Why not?
There should be MILLIONS of people, thousands of trucks.
So shout it out brother and sisters scream those numbers out
But newscast after newscast and I watched all the big three, CTV, CBC and Global and strange, not one mentioned how many. Not one showed them haul down the highway.
Not one.
Why is that?
Because they are so small, the media is afraid they would lose credibility if they mentioned the numbers of trucks and people, hoping instead for a much larger number on Saturday, to make their reporting seem justified.
The emperor has no clothes.
Despite the news media lying and laying fancy robes of gossamer thread and ethereal cloth.
Claim
“Current accounts say the convoy is over 70 km long, and may comprise around 50,000 trucks. It may break the world record for longest convoy ever assembled, the source of these stats is the event organizer,
It’ll be hard to impound and ticket 50,000 semis crowding into Ottawa.”
A semi is 72 feet (21.95 m) long
70 Km is 229658.8 feet (ca. 70 km) or 921 jumbo jets
simple math 3,190 semis in that length
Mind you 3200 trucks is a lot, but it is nowhere near 50 000 trucks
Remember what I said about credibility?
Mainstream won’t even try?
Yes, so you have Rebel media. Who have no credibility to lose or worry about!
Canadian Truck Protest Set to Become the Longest in History
The truckers on their way to Ottawa for an anti-mandate protest on Saturday may well be the longest truck convoy in history. Will it matter to the Stalinists in charge of their government? According to Guinness World Records, the longest truck convoy ever recorded was 7.5 km long, in Egypt in 2020. The Toronto Sun […]
http://www.independentsentinel.com
“The largest parade of trucks consisted of 480 trucks and is achieved by Tahya Misr Fund (Egypt), in Cairo, Egypt, on 20 November 2020,” Guinness says on its website. “With a length of 7.5 km, Tahya Misr Fund was able to organize a parade of 480 trucks, amid the harsh weather and heavy rain, breaking the Guinness World Records title for the largest parade of trucks, which was achieved 16 years ago in the Netherlands with a parade size of 416 trucks.”
So, by their own logic, 10 times the world’s largest would hold 4800 call it 5000 trucks, yet they claim 50 000 trucks?
Err
5000 is a far cry from 50 000?
Based on this math the convoy would stretch not 70 KM but 700 km.
There are an estimated 2 million trucks in the USA
Canada usually has about 10% of that number or 200 000
So they are claiming that 1 in 4 of all trailers will arrive in Ottawa?
25% when the unvaccinated makeup less than 10%
Normal motivation is around 1% of any given population. So this protest is carrying 25 times their weight in real numbers?
Really?
WOW
I am so impressed!
Or…
The convoy is total Bull…
One last point to ponder. In the spacing above, I was only putting in parked trucks, not driving trucks. Whereby, a separation would need to be anywhere from 6 to 10 time the length of a truck to avoid tailgating.
So, those 5000 truck that might fit in 70 km nose to nose is even smaller driving so 1/5 or maybe 1000 trucks. I can see a thousand crazy people driving to Ottawa, but I won’t mistake that for the harbinger of doom: The door knock of the apocalypse: or even the return of the revenant. It’s January and there is no real news to report. This sounds scary. Fearful people watch TV longer leading into sweeps month in February!
Postscript
Yes i know I am anal…
So they said 50 000 trucks
I did some math… Never leaving my chair.Just numbers…
Just me and my numbers and oh yes, reality on my side…
Care to take a guess at those 50 000 trucks how many showed up?
Who is closer? their 50 000 to my 1 000 hmmm
| Live updates: Trucker convoy protest in OttawaThe ‘freedom convoy’ of truckers and their supporters are protesting COVID-19 vaccine mandates on Parliament Hill on Saturday. Follow along for live updates from our reporters on the ground in Ottawa.www.ctvnews.ca |
10:45 a.m. EST
CTV News Ottawa’s Natalie van Rooy spoke with Antrim Truck Stop owner Tom Orr this morning on the convoy coming from Arnprior. Orr estimates there are more than 700 vehicles in total that have begun to leave for Parliament Hill.
Even I over estimated their numbers by 300.
1000 to 700 is close.
50 000 to 700 is easily not even in the same planet.
I know, I should be just humble but…
When you are good, you are good!
And
When you are right, you are right
And I was both good and right!
