I think many people also forgot truckers in Canada blocking border transit demanding lifting restrictions. It was fun because when it started Canada already announced the date their restrictions will be lifted.
Frankly that whole thing smelled like Russian psyop (not only it started right before invasion, about restrictive that already were planned to be lifted, but also it’s goal was to disrupt important supply chain and even tried to cause unrest (when someone tried to start a fire that could burn alive some residents as the person also locked exits)
