America should have led the way in the fight for freedom. I think the reason Canadians started it is that they have had it worse than us. Their restrictions have often been harsher. Also, in the US, we've had states like Florida, Texas, and South Dakota, and red towns scattered throughout the country that ignored a bunch of the mandates, allowing freedom-lovers to flee the most restrictive blue states rather than organize to fight back.
We've also had hope that Trump was going to be rightfully restored to the presidency at some point, exposing the corruption that led to the mandates, thus ending them, and doing so through normal political channels. Freedom lovers have donated generously to him and attended rallies in support of him.
We also have had millions of people imported from foreign lands over the past 50 years, who have no ties to our traditions and history, and whose ancestors played no role in fighting for our freedom. Many of these people prioritize big generous government over liberty. We've been propagandized to believe not wanting our country to be flooded with illegals or unvetted people from places whose culture is diametrically opposed to ours is racist and that being a racist is worse than being a mass murderer.
We've also been safety crazed for a few generations, maybe due to parents only having one or two children and subconsciously feeling the need to protect their genetic heritage at all costs. Gone are the days when children went out to play independently all day, the way we did when I was growing up. When parents had four, five, or six children, they loved them just the same, but somehow didn't feel the need to keep them in bubble wrap throughout their childhoods. "If it saves just one life..." has been our absurd mantra for years.
I hope the Canadian truckers have helped inspire us to stop waiting for the cavalry to arrive and stand up and become it.

This is exactly why and it hasn't just been covid. It's been many things. Justin Trudeau has been active in trying to wreck Western Canada from day 1 he was in office. Business has fled from Western Canada in massive waves. Our province alone was reaching a record high for people moving in to take on work and almost overnight that all changed with the Liberal government. Suicides went up drastically as did foreclosures while not a single one of our urban neighbours in the larger places cared. Finally after a while things reached a sort of balance (not a great one mind you) and then came the triple whammy of Covid.
This is the system breaking down and the workers rising up to tell the elites their time is up.

You Americans started this a LONG time ago. We call that thing the American War of independence. Since then, this is all accumulative work.
It's not starting with the Canadians. It's merely accelerating and shifting gears (which is what truckers do best, nes pa?)
