Polarized in every way imaginable.

24% of 18-34 and 34-55 support the truckers and what they are doing

27%/26% support them but not the way they are doing it

49%/50% think they are completely wrong and need to be stopped regardless

There's no real difference between young and middle age, although over 55s skew significantly to "stop them". Not much difference on income, but educational attainment shows significant skew, with university educated far less likely to support the truckers

I don't think your statement is at odds with gp's. A legitimate concern doesn't make it popular.

However, the greater issue is a lack of organization and so nothing (very little) is going to get done (much like with BLM).

The best thing ruin collective disputes is to add more noise and discourse so that the original cause is lost in the shuffle and the majority just sit back and shrug. "I can get behind solving one problem at a time, but when they're shouting for 20, I can't be bothered to care."

Re: getting things done, so far it seems counter-productive in the sense that now the government doesn’t want to seem “weak” and relax restrictions, even though it’s what reasonable governments are doing at this point. I’m not going to put this at the feet of the organizers (whoever they are); it simply deepens my already deep disappointment with the Canadian government since thats a political move.
