Experts say truckers should have done more to prepare for vaccine mandate
‘Slow-roll’ protest planned by Quebec truckers against COVID-19 vaccination mandate Lori Turnbull, director of the School of Public Administration at Dalhousie University, questioned the wisdom of truckers’ lobbying strategy, given how firmly Prime Minister Justin Trudeau staked out his position in favour of vaccine mandates during last year’s federal election.“Trudeau really drilled in on putting the pressure on for vaccines,” Turnbull said. “If some companies are making an effort and others aren’t, I don’t get it.“It’s another thing again if companies are really resisting it, as though government doesn’t have the right to make us do this,” she said.Some big-riggers feel strongly that Ottawa should stay out of their way.
