I'm extremely concerned with Smith & her UCP destroying my AB. I used to vote conservative before the RWNJ took it over and merged the RPC and the PC party.

Met up with an old friend Curtis, in Hope, BC last night in his 2023 Peterbilt. We haven't seen each other in 11 years! Just another fully vaccinated "trucker" out providing for his family, like yours truly. So awesome to see you Brother ❤️
A huge shout out to the Sikh community from Kamloops. They brought fresh cooked meals for all stranded truckers. They are preparing/delivering these to all, in need. Community ❤

I'm a trucker from western Canada. I voted for Justin Trudeau in the last 3 Federal elections, will continue to do so! My work in international export transportation has not been impacted, during the last 26 months. I, as my family is, am fully vaccinated.
Thanks, once again, to the Sikh Community in Kamloops, BC. They just delivered 2 Med Pizza Pepperoni/Hawaiian to my friend Misha & I, stranded for the 3rd day in Barriere,BC

I saw Kenney today! He was crossing 99 ave by 108 street. I shouted, "Kenney!". He turned and waved and I yelled, "You're an asshole!". One of his entourage spoke into his lapel. Soon after this Suburban drove up and watched me...lol.
I sure as hell didn't. I was vaccinated and worked throughout bringing food to AB, from BC. I hauled loads of frozen & fresh pork for export. The real "truckers" were here, still are, supporting our families and trade.
How many people look at a Canadian Flag on a car, and question its placement there? I hate the fact that our Flag was hijacked by these free dumb idiots!
Am I weird? I became a Dad, later in life. I have 2-13yr old sons. One mine biologically, one my step-son. I tell them I love them several times daily. Something I didn't hear often growing up. Is this wrong?
BBQ getting ready for the steak. Diana Krahl on, perhaps a little vino. Sure better to be home, with family, then at a

or sitting in Ottawa Remand Center. No, not rubbing it in here.
It's a dirty road out there, this afternoon. Had to clean the windows, lights & fill up my washer fluid. 6 litres since Calgary! Hot chocolate for a beverage, on my way to Langley.
While getting my truck washed this morning, YYC, I encountered another truck driver who was sympathetic to the convoy. I asked him if he was vaccinated, no. I told him you're part of the problem, be part of the solution. I them asked if he voted UCP, yes. That's your problem!
I just spoke with a S/Sgt (RCMP) in Lethbridge. They, RCMP, are unable to find any tow trucks in AB to move the offending vehicles at Coutts. He asked us to spread the word. They need help with tow trucks.
RCMP have layed 7 charges in Banff, to US citizens, stopping in Banff. They've no business stopping there. They should be transported back to the US border, refused entry back into Canada. We're going to end up with sick Canadian's, as a result.
I'm watching Mark Carney speak to the Liberal Caucus meeting. He's said more in those brief moments than Pierre Propaganda has said in 2 years. Good dig at Poillevre, as well. "Slogans don't work"
Just got to Lickman Road, Chilliwack, BC. The Freedumb protestors are out in full strength here. The RCMP just showed up,2 vehicles, looks like their going in to shut down the shit show. FFS does this garbage ever end?
2/ after chatting there were MH issues. He said he remembered me from a previous encounter, that I was nice to him then too. I honestly didn't remember. My point

is real! Be kind & help your fellow man, not just during this season. Do it always.
For those people who like to ride with their feet on top of the passengers side airbag, this a a not so gentle reminder of the damage that can occur. Please keep your feet on the floor, wear your seat belt properly. Airbags are dangerous, when seat belts not worn properly.
I arrived back in YYC, yesterday. I did a delivery, 36st NE, was on Memorial headed back to Deerfoot. An older RV with "Canada Unity" and all the signatures with "F

I've worked my entire adult life, payed taxes. I demand that my tax dollars be used to finance health education & social programs that help us all ( ie seniors, singles, families & underprivileged persons)

Guess who was Minister of Defense when Vance was promoted to CDS? That's right, none other than Jason Kenney. This was done despite there being serious complaints about Vance's behavior towards subordinates. This was done under Harper as PM!
We're stuck in Hope, BC , 4000 other trucks and I due to a multiple fatality accident at the east gate to E.C. Manning park. There are at least as many stuck in Princeton, Merritt & Kamloops. It's going to be a long weekend Stay safe all.
I'm talking to my older Sister this morning. She is an RN AHS ( 38 yrs), the covid death rate in AB is climbing high again. The UCP doesn't want anyone to know. My Sister is in a position to know because of her assignments. The UCP is hiding this, because of their, /1
I don't know about you, my kids attend Calgary Public Education. If I wanted them to attend a private chartered school, I would be paying for that. Why does
@jkenney
feel it's appropriate to waste my tax dollars $72 million on private chartered schools? I don't approve of this!
I’m sick and tired of people who make $25,000 an hour trying to convince people who make $25 an hour that people who make $15 an hour are making too much money.
Husky Energy, after major layoffs, has stated their cutting their investment in AB by $500 million over the next 2 years. How's that $4.7 billion dollar tax give away working

Socialism isn't getting free stuff. It's getting things you pay for with your taxes, like education, healthcare & infrastructure. Rather than giving it away in huge corporate donations.

sheep for wearing a mask. I replied; Is that what you were doing before you came to the bank? He didn't say anything after that.
Good morning. I was in Golden, BC the other morning. Stopped for my coffee. Before I was out of my truck, a man approached. He asked politely if I would buy him a coffee. I said sure, are you hungry? He replied yes. I told him to meet me in T.H. It became evident, 1/
Good morning, today is bittersweet. I'm taking the truck back to the owner in Langley. I've decided to come off the highway, many reasons have precipitated this decision. My most important, my family. My guys are now G-10 and I need to be here. The highway 1/
In Alberta, we prefer this to windmills or solar panels. We think this is downright beautiful and we don't want windmills to get in our way when we want to look at it. (Note the tiny little truck on the road to appreciate the scale of this beauty.)
I'm thinking about the video from Coutts, AB when the protestors decided to leave. The RCMP & protestors sang O' Canada and hugged shook hands! Really like WTF? When they broke up the pipeline protestors(indigenous) the logging protestors on Van. Island (indigenous & others) 1/
Good morning. Let me get this straight; you've eaten bologna your whole life, but you won't get the Coronavirus vaccine because you're afraid of what's in it? Simply amazing!
Someone should remind
@PierrePoilievre
that the Phoenix pay system was budgeted at $309 Million, it was forecasted to be at $2.2 billion, 2023, still doesn't work properly. It caused the suicide of federal employees. Poilievre was in government under Harper. Let's not forget.
2/ The flipping mandates are over, give it up FFS! I'm sick of these BS protests! If you want to protest injustice, protest against Poo Tin, his staged occupation and war in 🇺🇦. This isn't Russia's war its Poo Tin and his S.D.S!
After watching the testimony from the Ottawa Inquiry, two items are crystal clear. 1. Pat King is a lying, uneducated P.O.S.! 2. The "Truckers Convoy", did not represent myself, most other "Truckers" I know. I didn't have any "Freedom" imposed upon. I was respected & responsible
Wee bit of a rant here. To all the Covid deniers, who are you going to when sick? That's right, your Doctor! If you don't believe Covid is real, perhaps go to your auto mechanic for health care concerns. Otherwise STFU and get vaccinated! Rant done.
Tonight was my worst nightmare. One of my team members was killed in a truck accident. I unfortunately had to drive by, on my trip. I knew about being there, made it worse. Please be kind to everyone, always, you never know when this tragedy will happen RIP JL, we will miss you
I'm having trouble understanding how Danielle Smith was unaware that a Prov. Premier doesn't have the same power as a State Governor. She didn't know about the Crim. Code of Can., being federal jurisdiction? That the prov. gov. and its leader can't pardon people?
How stupid 1/
Heads up, SH 519 & Hwy 24, they are blocking the traffic circle with a mobile home! I drove around some of them, after telling them to get the hell out of my way! Thankfully they moved.
The conservatives in UK went through 5 leaders in 14 yrs. The conservatives in Canada have been through 5 leaders in 9 years. Do we see a conservative pattern?
#NeverEverTrustConservatives
My stepson sent me this photo, just now. This was in Hwy 33, looking north from Swan Hills, AB. We lost everything in the Slave Lake Wildfire on May 15th, 2011. This is a very scary reminder
I was just speaking with my Sis, retired RN in Red Deer. Strange Lagrange shows up on her door, campaigning. Strange says "Hi I'm" My sister replies, "I know who you are" Tells her, "I'll never vote for you, or the UCP" You tore up Doctor's contracts, demoralized H.C. 1/

#EnoughIsEnoughUCP
rally in Calgary. I'm estimating 1500 folks were there. All in all it was good, a very good cross section of folks. The sky's were threating to pour, only felt a few drops.
