Kenney made the accusation of the assaults and “swarming” incidents during a press conference Tuesday afternoon.
RCMP is disputing claims made by Premier Jason Kenney that their officers have been assaulted by truckers blockading the Coutts border crossing in southern Alberta.
“I am not aware of any assault on any of our officers,” RCMP Cpl. Curtis Peters told the Western Standard.
Kenney made the accusation of the assaults and “swarming” incidents during a press conference Tuesday afternoon.
The Western Standard has reached out to Kenney’s office for an explanation of the discrepancy between the two stories but hasn’t heard anything back.
“This is a serious situation,” Kenney said at a press conference, describing incidents of RCMP being “swarmed” by protesters.
He said one RCMP vehicle was rammed which caused another accident.
Kenney said he was “disappointed that a small number had broken the law.
“This is totally unacceptable. I am calling for calm.”

Alberta Premier Oberführer 'Justin' Kenney 'calling for calm', and the reaction from the Justin True-dolt funded Canadian MSM and pols who were onside with this massive CCP-Coronavirus fraud. </sarc>
Reality is, Kenney lied (about the CCP-Coronavirus and the CONdemic) and people died.
According to the article, 10,000 trucks joined the convoy to Coutts but less than 100 remain. Other articles from the Western Standard suggest that the Mounties were trying to impound, and get tow trucks to tow away the trucks. No operators in Southern Alberta are prepared to assist Oberführer Kenney in his quest.
Not even by the ones with swastikas and confederate flags?
What the leftists have done in response to covid is normal for them and no surprise. What some “conservatives” have done is a surprise however.
When is this jerks term up? Someone needs to announce today. That man should never be allowed to hold office again.
Way to go propagandizing with words right out of the communists' mouths.
Shame.
Oh, did I need the “/S” on that comment? Guess I did.
I’m sure he was. He was probably hoping for a large number so he could justify using force and clamping down on it turthlessly.
The RCMP just thew Kenney under the truck.
The truckers were torturing the cops with slightly stale sandwiches and not very hot coffee.
American beer would have crossed a line.
The socialist around the world have awaken a sleeping giant.
I wonder how many FIB guys are learning to drive big rigs for when/if US truckers get a convoy going?
Yeah, but the cold donuts was what really drove them over the edge.
HONK.
If you like Honking, you have to check out this flag. Very Canadian
Must not be any African-Canadian truck drivers up there.
Maybe, if little Justin T. ever comes home, he can get in touch with “Karen” Pelosi and have her whip him up a 1 February “commission” to double check that no Mounties were actually injured or killed during the Rubber Duck Convoy.
