chasovschikVox объясняет своей аудитории всю правду про Freedom Convoy: The “freedom convoy” that has besieged Ottawa isn’t a people’s revolt. It’s a fringe movement protesting its defeat.
Избранные места:
Особенно мне понравилось то место, где провинции отменяют ограничения по плану, потому что наука, а тракеры тут вовсе и ни при чем. У нас тут, в общем, то же самое: ограничения отменяются, потому что science has changed, причем тут выборы? Не мешает даже то, что далеко не все демократы заметили эти научные перемены. А что поделаешь, очень уж быстро наука меняется.
Кстати, знает ли кто, почему опять перестала работать трансляция из Дрима, и можно ли что-нибудь с этим сделать?
Избранные места:
The so-called “freedom convoy” is nominally protesting a vaccine mandate for truckers, implemented in mid-January on both sides of the US-Canada border. But the demonstrations have swiftly ballooned into a broader far-right movement, with some demonstrators waving Confederate and Nazi flags.
---
But while the protests are generating a lot of noise and attention, the eruption actually points up a counterintuitive fact: The Canadian far right is weak and ineffectual, especially when it comes to pandemic restrictions.
---
The current demonstration is quite unpopular with the general public, divisive even inside the center-right Conservative party.
---
News coverage of the convoy, especially from sympathetic anchors on Fox News, may lead Americans to believe that Canada is in the midst of a far-right popular uprising. In reality, the mainstream consensus in Canada about Covid-19, and the nation’s institutions in general, is holding. The so-called trucker movement is on the fringe, including among Canadian truckers — some 90 percent of whom are vaccinated.
---
Alberta and several other Canadian provinces are now in the process of lifting some of the more burdensome restrictions. But this generally reflects the omicron surge’s ebb rather a wave of public opposition; in Ontario, home to Ottawa and Toronto, the Conservative provincial government is following a preexisting reopening script pegged to a decline in case counts and hospitalizations. Some provincial leaders, like Quebec’s François Legault, noted that reopening plans were in no way influenced by trucker shenanigans.
---
It makes sense, then, that the trucker protest is widely unpopular.

Дайбог все заживёт гладко как положено тьфутьфу. Это счастье, что поймали/диагностировали во-время, опаснейшая штука.
У меня папа 22 года уже после такой операции, пока полёт нормальный.
