Participants and supporters of several truck convoys that have been making their way toward Ottawa from across Canada for several days are holding a demonstration in the nation’s capital on Sunday to protest COVID-19 vaccine mandates and other public health measures.
The convoy movement, known as the “Save Canada” movement or the “freedom convoy,” started last Sunday in British Columbia, when hundreds of truckers took to the road to protest a mandate requiring all cross-border essential workers, including truckers, to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination at points of entry. Without it, they must quarantine for 14 days.
I was just checking out Lenora Thompson’s blog. I noticed that there is at least one mechanic who has offered his services free of charge and will go to the truck if they are in his area. I think there are some medical people who are traveling along, too. I was not as sure about that, though. There is a motel offering rooms for the night. Oh, and I saw that there were 12,000 trucks from the U.S. that made it across the border and joined them. Good luck and prayers for them all.
