A Canadian Trucker's Point of View

Karl Krebs is a Canadian trucker who "legally" trucks frequently in the USA:

Karl writes in referance to the link to the article below: "The author discusses the recent decline in the number of Canadians traveling to the United States through the Pembina ND crossing, suggesting that this decrease has been is a form of protest among Canadians. They express frustration over discussions about the potential annexation of Canada, stating could be further from the truth. This liberal-minded media outlet is guilty of falsely spreading fear. I refer ti them as "the false press" or rather than the "fear press."

Anyone who travels to the U.S. as frequently as I do understands the sense of freedom and exhilaration that comes with crossing the 49th parallel. It simply feels better—and is better—to be in the United States whenever possible. Donald Trump is not the issue; rather, we are facing a crisis of leadership in Canada that is prompting many Canadians to seek opportunities elsewhere. It may not be the U.S. right now, especially with the current state of our Canadian dollar, but as someone who spends a significant amount of time in the United States, I can assure you that it remains the best country, bar none. It saddens me to admit that this includes my own experience of living in Canada.

We were once a proud nation, but now we find ourselves feeling defeated. We are under a government that seems indifferent to our ability to thrive and proper in our own country. Currently, Pierre Poilievre is a prominent figure who aspires to be the Prime Minister , but he struggles to figure out how to win an election. This leaves us in a difficult position. I am reminded of the movie "Desperately Seeking Susan"; we are desperately seeking someone to lead this country toward a brighter future. However, I cannot clearly identify who that leader might be, as he has yet to emerge, and the party he would represent does not even exist.

This is just one man's opinion. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below."
