That’s some amazing work. If I need a (non political message) paint and sign work I’ll be heading to you, assuming the border reopens to unvaccinated folk.
Thanks for the kind words. I've been doing this sort of thing since I was 15. Hopefiully 25 years of experience shows here! These signs were all pretty quick, I don't think any of the layouts took much more than 15 minutes to design, we simply didn't have time.

OTTAWA - Almost two-thirds of Canadians oppose the Ottawa protest against COVID-19 measures, with more than four in 10 saying they strongly consider the demonstration a selfish display, a new poll suggests.

But almost 30 per cent of Canadians surveyed by Leger disagreed with that characterization of the demonstration against COVID-19 measures that has seen hundreds of large trucks create gridlock and incessant noise in the national capital.

I can find you a poll of 25,000 Canadians, where 24,000 of them support the truckers.

I accept the challenge. Forgive me, it's an ongoing vote, it grew since I made my original comment. Point still stands, I believe, though.

I didn't say it's accurate, but its as accurate as Canadian Press, I'd imagine.

Hence my previous comment, as well as me even going to look for this. I don't trust the media in any of their polls, either, but was pretty sure a counter poll could be found.

The survey also points to interesting trends in religious beliefs within different populations in the country. Belief in God is lower among men (50 per cent) than women (57 per cent). Younger people also believe less, only 41 per cent of respondents aged 18 to 34 say they believe compared to 64 per cent of those 55 years of age or older.
