The same kind of lines at inspection area were seen yesterday. 2/ 
And the delays hit 1 hour 15 minutes tonight in the commercial line; but were 52 minutes at the same time in the regular passenger vehicle queue. 3/
And virtually all of the trucks at Peace Bridge were pulling trailers with loads. The videos of the Freedom Convoy show a plurality of the rigs were not pulling trailers. 4/
So either these US truckers own their own cargo trailers, or they decided to bring the freight they are carrying to Canada for the protest. Maybe?! 5/
Also, traffic cam on the Canadian side showed truckers leaving customs at a very slow pace, suggesting some kind of slow down on the QEW, as opposed to heavy volume. 6/
Many of the trailers in these lines were from Canadian-based logistics companies, most from Southern Ontario. Still could be US truckers behind the wheel. 7/
And then, as pointed out by others, all of these US truckers would have to be vaccinated to cross the border. So maybe vaxxed drivers decided to detour from their work to come for the protest? Possible. 8/
So it’s *possible* the delays at Peace Bridge tonight we’re caused by huge numbers of vaxxed truckers blowing off paid work and coming to Canada for #freedomconvoy, but… yeah. 9/end.
