OTTAWA - The latest developments on Saturday's plannedOne of the main organizers of the trucker convoy to Ottawa has addressed the crowd, suggesting that he believes their concerns can't be ignored.
He adds that watching people arrive in Ottawa to say no to vaccine mandates “is the most amazing thing I've seen yet.”RCMP say several hundred vehicles, possibly up to 1,000, took part in a protest near the border crossing at Coutts, Alta. Local residents are once again being warned to avoid the area as streets are closed due to the gridlock caused by the truckers' protest on Parliament Hill.
Ottawa police say they have officers from forces in Ontario including Toronto, Durham Region and London, as well as officers from the OPP and RCMP. In a statement posted to Twitter, Moe says the current federal border policy for truckers makes no sense and believes an unvaccinated trucker doesn't pose any greater risk of transmission than a vaccinated trucker.
Several signs also say, “We are the fringe minority,” playing on comments Trudeau made a few days ago that characterized some in the convoy crowd.More trucks are still on their way as organizers try to keep everyone moving and note where traffic has stopped, or exits blocked. About one-tenth of truckers that haul goods are estimated to be affected by requirements on both sides of the Canada-U.S. border for drivers to be vaccinated in order to cross freely.
Hundreds of demonstrators are marching up and down Wellington Street, which runs right in front of Parliament Hill and the Prime Minister's Office.

I fucking love this protest. Best thing that's happened in two years. And watching people pigeonhole this into some nazi Jan 6 fest is just sparkling stupidity in action.
