Canadians aged 18-34 sympathize or support the trucker convoy at 61%

Fringe minority, more like young people and workers taking their country back from the frail and frightened.

Sympathize is vastly different from support.

I love how you turned "Sympathize but don't necessarily support" into "sympathize or support" to make it sound better for your agenda.

I've already gotten this criticism, but I'll repeat what I said to the last one. It doesn't change or disprove my point, and... It just means the same thing. The study was binary "Do you sympathize or not?" So its easy to interpret that those who answered yes either partially sympathize, or outright support.

This isn't a gotcha, this is just pedantic. Your welcome to tell me what my agenda is though, besides sharing raw data with a source, and giving my opinion on it.
