Trucks lined roadways leading into Canada’s capital Ottawa as drivers staged a massive protest against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates
a vaccine requirement for cross-border
"It's not just about the vaccines. It's about stopping the public health mandates altogether," said Daniel Bazinet, owner of Valley Flatbed & Transportation in Nova Scotia on the Atlantic coast. Bazinet is unvaccinated, but operates domestically and so is not affected by the cross-border mandate. Few wore masks, but many were in balaclavas as the temperature with windchill was minus 21 Celsius . A downtown mall closed because demonstrators refused to wear masks inside, CTV reported.
Earlier this week Trudeau said the convoy represented a "small fringe minority" who do not represent the views of Canadians. About 90% of Canada's cross-border truckers and 77% of the population have had two COVID vaccination shots.
