WASHINGTON: If death in a storm with the Family of Patel Gujarati – which dominates the motel industry in the United States – while illegally crossing the Canadian-US border into headlines last week, weekend has placed the spotlight on Sikh, which is the driving force in the truck business in North America.
In the midst of inner doubts in the community, thousands of Sikh drivers have joined the epic convoy tens of thousands of truck drivers of about 40 miles due to directing the road to Canada, driving from Vancouver to the capital Ottawa to protest vaccine mandates and restrictions related to Covid.
This problem has become the main political headache for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who initially rejected the protest, began to fall on Ottawa during the weekend, as a small edge of people …
who held an unacceptable view and did not represent.
People’s views Canada who has been there for each other.
“But on Friday, the truck driver gets injections in the arm with prominent anti-enforcement Americans, including host radio Joe Rogan and Elon Musk Tesla, the richest person in the world, supports what Dubbed “Freedom convoy.” “Canadian Rule Truckers” Musk tweeted on Friday, added, “If you are quite scaring, they will demand the elimination of freedom.
This is the path to tyranny.” Rogan said the Canadians “in the rebellion,” even as a fundamentalist Republic of Indonesia expressed support for rally, one of the biggest in Canadian history, said the truck driver was a real opposition in Canada.
Sikh is a significant percentage of truck drivers in the US and Canada, with estimates of 150,000 and 200,000 personnel ruled up to 40 percent of business.
Many of them are part of the US-Canadian supply chain and they are said to be annoyed from the mandate of the vaccine and other covid protocols.
However, there was a doubt in the community that protests were being hijacked by a politically radical white truck against Trudeau for reasons other than the vaccine mandate.
The division arose when Jagmeet Singh, the leader of the new Democratic Party, Trudeau allied, criticized the protest that said some people behind him pushed “false information” with “inflammatory comments, dividing and full of hatred.” However, Brother-in-law of Singh, Jodhver Singh Dhaliwal, reportedly contributed $ 13,000 for the protest.
“[Me] …
disagree with him about this donation and told him.
I oppose this convoy and fight dangerous rhetoric and divide the sides that we see come from him,” Singh told local media.
A gurdwara in Ottawa also said it closed the door after the truck driver was told that they could take place there.
Truck drivers in the US and Canada can make more than $ 100,000 driving heavy rigs and in dangerous conditions, the money that attracts a large number of Sikh immigrants to take the job, finally moved to the business side.
Their role in the supply chain is getting closer in recent months, especially because of the lack of the Covid era, and the truck driver seems to have decided to use moments to reduce better conditions and easier cross-border protocols.
According to the Canadian truck alliance, 32,000 of the 160,000 Canadian and American cross drivers may have to be taken out of the way because of the vaccine mandate institutionalized by the Trudeau government.
