The Epoch Times: 'Truckers protesting in Ottawa deserve to have their voices heard and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s refusal to meet them shows a disregard for democracy, says a Conservative MP.
'“These [truckers] are hard-working Canadians, and they deserve to have a voice, they deserve to be listened to,” MP Rachael Thomas told the Epoch Times in an interview.
“They came to Ottawa because they’re desperate. They’re desperate to have their lives back. They’re desperate to be able to provide for their families. They’re desperate to be able to travel to see family. They’re desperate to have loved ones be able to access the healthcare that they deserve. They’re desperate to see our country flourish economically the way that it should.”
'But Trudeau appears unwilling to hear their voices or give weight to their concerns, added Thomas, who represents the Lethbridge riding: “He is willfully turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to the situation that is taking place in Canada.”'
