While the noisy protest has been largely peaceful, police are stepping up personnel with the rise in violent threats. The protests continued all day long and at all hours of the night. Those with the so-called “Freedom Convoy” say they’re staying out.
– Canada’s capital remains paralyzed for the second straight weekend by a trucker protest. The truckers have blocked the streets of Ottawa with their big rigs to protest the country’s COVID-19 mandates.
“This whole event has gone beyond just vaccines and it is now about the entire ordeal,” protester James McDonald said.The protesters have been free to park big rigs next to the prime minister’s office and to set up camp in front of the country’s national parliament. Ottawa police say they have learned much in the past week, especially after reports of assaults, intimidation and allegations of hate symbols and speech.To try and do that, they have called in more reinforcements, moving to what they call a surge and contain strategy.
Toronto, Canada’s largest city, is closing a large section in front of the provincial legislature this weekend as trucker’s descend. More worrying, they are closing off the adjacent hospital row where exhausted healthcare workers carry on battling COVID.
