Time to Close the Border

[rmhay]

Enough is enough. Border closed to Beef. Tarrifs on wheat, pigs,softwood lumber. The list goes on & on. I believe it's time for Canadians, to stand up and disrupt trade headed across the border. Band together local groups, pick a day, and block EVERY border crossing in this country. Stop the flow of U.S. goods coming up into our country. No cheap corn or canola or apples.Nothing. Should get some serious attention and the urban powers and media might get the message how widespread the pain is across this country. What have we got left to lose? No doubt some will reply that it can't be done ,but I think it could. Sitting and whining won't change anything. What do you think??

Oh, definitely could be done, not going to argue about that. Picture tractors parked sideways at every crossing with farmers chaining themselves around them...pretty hard to move. The question is what does that do with our relationship with the rest of Canada. Who cares about blocking all the borders, just get enough irrate farmers to block off the bridge at Windson/Detroit and you'll piss of every one in the Toronto high rises as that one crossing involves millions of dollars of goods crossing everyday.
