UNITED IN THE CAUSE

 There was a call from an older cattle dealer in central Ontario. He had never protested in his life. Ottawa was going to be a first. He told of a local small operator, “I mean he’s small and needs the money,” who had donated $10,000 to this convoy.

“It’s the fear,” he said. “I’m not sure what scares them more? The fear of COVID, or the fear of people critical of them for not complying? There has only been one farmer demand I wear a mask in his barn when out buying cattle. He’s on the milk marketing board.”
