A peaceful pro-choice trucker convoy is heading to Ottawa.
Members of the Canada wide convoy including a BC contingent currently 70 kilometres long and with over 600 truckers, are taking the fight to the Federal government.
Jeremy Boucher, who has been a truck driver for 22 years says the convoy is for everyone.
He says the rules that truckers need to adhere to seem to be changing on a daily basis.
He says the community support since all of this began has been incredible.
Boucher, added, the convoy protest is aimed at ending mandates.
The Southwestern portion of the convoy will rendezvous in Kingston Friday morning before heading to Ottawa.
The federal government and the Canadian Trucking Alliance are acknowledging the unprecedented challenges facing the sector, which ships the vast majority of food and consumer products.
The Canadian Trucking Alliance says 90 per cent of truck drivers are already vaccinated and has denounced the convoy.
However the Canadian Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian Manufacturing Coalition both urge Prime Minister Trudeau to back down.
