“We fear the mandate will lead to a lack of inventory for our retailers during their historical re-stocking period and/or price increases to our consumers. We hereby call on the government to delay the deadline for mandatory full vaccination until a later date to allow us to work with our suppliers so that we can minimize the supply chain disruption.”–Eleonore Hamm, Recreation Vehicle Dealers Association (RVDA) of Canada

Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court temporarily halted President Biden’s vaccine mandate for private sector workers, including cross border truckers. However, Canada has imposed a vax mandate on truckers crossing the U.S.-Canada border and already Canada is reporting that the cost to truck produce (fruit & veg) from the U.S. into Canada jumped by 25%!
Canada’s vax mandate on truckers began on 15 January, while Biden’s mandate was supposed to start on 22 January. Canada’s mandate is already causing massive delays in shipping, even cancelations, which result in less product in the stores to meet demand, which jacks-up prices. Also, ‘fully’ vaccinated drivers can now command top pay, again causing prices for end users (consumers) to go up.
Driver’s from Mexico, crossing through the U.S. into Canada, must also meet the new vax mandate.
