Despite a court injunction, police blockade and the threat of arrest, hundreds more joined the protest throughout the day

Efforts began at around 8:30 a.m. Dozens of officers formed a line across Huron Church Road, slowly walking away from the highway’s intersection with College Avenue where a crowd of protesters had been stationed only hours before. With that area cleared out, police inched towards Tecumseh Road West, face to face with a group of protesters walking backward.

Asked if he had a message to protesters this morning, Bellaire said he encourages people to leave peacefully. Bellaire said he couldn’t comment on the number of officers involved in Saturday’s enforcement action, but did say Windsor police had been joined by officers from the OPP and RCMP as well as London, Waterloo and Hamilton police forces.A man in a truck told police they were pathetic.

The Windsor Police & its policing partners have commenced enforcement at and near the Ambassador Bridge. We urge all demonstrators to act lawfully & peacefully. Commuters are still being asked to avoid the areas affected by the demonstrations at this time.Windsor Star reporters on the ground saw many protesters leave willingly in the morning. As of around noon, enforcement has been peaceful, and no arrests had been made.

No arrests made protesters just laughing at police what do you expect mr ford 😼

I want Russia to stop interfering with Ukraine and the USA to stop interfering with Canada.

Failed

Any remaining protestors who are opting to stay following a declaration of an emergency provincial order should be in jail. If they are not, then the police are either not doing their job or have been compromised.

sendinthearmynow The police haven't cleared the Ambassador Bridge nor cleared Ottawa of this menacing occupation. Such an embarrassing situation! We're crippling or International Trade relations. Protesters should have been removed from Ottawa on the 2nd day. sendinthearmynow

MAKE THE FREEDOM PROTEST LAWFUL & PEACEFUL WITH BLOCKADES IN EFFECT . VIOLENT PROTESTORS ARE RUING THE PROTEST WITH A VIOLENT ATTITUDE , violent protestors go away .

Sergeant Pepper would have taken care of all of this in no time.

Guess why? Look up systematic racism. If this were black or Indigenous people we wouldn't be having a conversation because they'd have been cleared days ago.

What are they going to do about blockade on American side?

Music and Dancing, Pizza and Coffee at an illegal protest blocking critical infrastructure in direct defiance of a legal injunction in the face of police. This is what WhitePrivilege looks like. Recognize your privilege. CanadaTruckers Canada CanadaHasFallen
