Canadians greeting Truckers’ convoy with enthusiasm

After a weekend of reading and viewing social media coverage of the Truckers’ convoys, it appears that a large number of average, everyday Canadians are in support.

Of course, there are probably not any large groups of people standing on bridges in winter weather to flip the Truckers off, so perceptions may be skewed….but clips like this one are pretty sincere, and compelling.

While there is skepticism on Twitter, where I live in Ontario, groups are springing up all along the 401 to gather on the bridges as Facebook messages fly around groups.
