To begin with, this is your president. This ought to be one of the most shameful things ever said by a sitting president.

The Canadian government is fighting back the only way they can, i.e., sending in the cops to arrest, tow and imprison people). It has been all over the news this weekend. Some locations are standing firm.
Others are in a bit more trouble. When the cops arrest the main actors and tow their trucks, there isn’t much that can be done about it. Or is there?
At Coutts, they have changed tactics up a bit. I’m not sure what this was about, but I’m guessing that a way around the roadway was being planned by the government, and the farmers figured out a way to circumvent those plans. The farmers and tractors have supplemented (or in some cases fully supplanted) the truckers. Everyone needs sleep and has to go home at some point.
And this brings me to the analysis. At the Ambassador Bridge, after the arrests and truckers finally leaving, the line of protestors formed in a different location, while still blocking access.
The tactics are going to have to be malleable and evolving. When one trucker drives away, he should be replaced by another. When one protester leaves, another should come along to take his or her place. When arrests begin happening, reform the line elsewhere. When more arrests occur, truckers can jam up traffic by moving slowly or “strategically” running out of fuel right beside another trucker to which that also happens. When the truckers tire, the farmers can take their place.
It looks like much of this is already happening.
This can be done, but it will require determination and evolution of tactics, techniques and procedures.
