First of all, if I were even remotely close to this, I would not "avoid travel into the downtown core" I would be traveling there for sure!! Second, I think the businesses are doing just fine. I doubt the truckers are holding off on food, water, coffee and even a new shirt. That's just fear mongering. Third, it's not costing them anything extra. What it is doing though is making them move money from other fluff accounts to the police account, and they are cranky about it. Suddenly they are posting their bills online... how much did covid enforcement cost in police dollars? How odd that they didn't do a dramatic post for that...
