The large-scale Freedom Convoy protest in Canada’s capital city, started by truckers, continues. Police in the Canadian capital of Ottawa said protesters blocking the streets will face arrests
At the moment, it is mainly the drivers of hundreds of trucks and their support groups who are in the city centre. The action is peaceful, but the truck drivers are almost constantly hitting their klaxons, which makes the locals nervous. Traffic in the city centre is almost paralysed and the road is only open to special vehicles.
The reason for the rally was the introduction of compulsory vaccinations at the Canadian-US border, introduced by the Canadian authorities. Freedom Convoy organizers said they are expecting reinforcements from the US in the near future.
