Travel has been completely blocked on both sides of the border. Semi-trucks have been parked in both lanes approaching the border on either side.
More than a thousand Albertans in hundreds of trucks and vehicles have descended on Alberta’s Coutts border and have stopped all cross-border travel.

These truckers claim they are prepared to wait 2 weeks or more, until Alberta Premier Jason Kenney, ends the vaxx mandates in Alberta. They cannot join the protest in d'Ottawa, so they're doing their bit, in Alberta.
Local Hutterite 'colonies' (somewhat similar to Amish, or Doukhabors) in Southern Alberta are providing food for the protesters.
Though I have a weekend off, my car is on the fritz, so I cannot join them, as much as I would love to!
WAY TO GO, GUYS! Prayers up for all these fighters for freedom!
Lockdowns are all fun-and-games until the elites start to feel the pain.
Will the truckers block the only road going into Nova Scotia?
They best way to support them is to provide food & drink to them.
Any activity at the Estevan border (NW North Dakota)? That’s the one we used to cross.
civilization is fully dependent on a transported supply chain
This video was shot all around downtown Ottawa tonight trucks and cars and people everywhere just sitting there between 950 and 1134 PM.
At 5:30 in you see the first of the trucks...

Anyone else getting an East Berlin 1989 vibe? God bless these good men.
Wide open in these 2 spots after a quick check on live webcams.

I absolutely love this; the people are speaking, loud and clear. Be prepared as the Deep State, now in a panic, will attempt to issue draconian laws and regulations to stifle this grass roots movement, but the truckers, being as tough as they are, will power through this, and the people cheering on the roadways will not be silenced. Alternative methods to protest will rise from the ground up to circumvent any attempts to silence VOX POPULI, and we will win, one way or the other. My gut tells me so.
I haven’t heard anything about any protests at that crossing. Coutts-Sweetgrass is the busiest crossing in Alberta. Alberta, sometimes referred to as the ‘Texas’ of the North, IS a hotbed for independent thought AND action (though both Calgary and Edmonton have too large a share of leftist ‘sheeple’).
This AM, I heard about a convoy heading to the Legislature in Edmonton, but I haven’t heard any more about it. I also read of a BC convoy heading to the Chilliwack border crossing, but I haven’t heard anything else.
“Lockdowns are all fun-and-games until the elites start to feel the pain.”
The elite are going to get even more pain.
I hope the frequency and intensity of these types of protests continues. It needs to be continuous until freedom is upheld and the control freak mentality is crushed.
IMO these ‘rodeos’ are just getting started.
“They ain’t seen nothing yet.”
These truckers have the ability to cause HUGE PAIN to these politicians they have the power to shut the supply chain down, stop it dead in its tracks!! It will be rough on the public for a while HOWEVER it will be worth it!! GOD BLESS THEM ALL!! I think the truckers got a HUGE BOOST seeing the massive support they have!!
Without Truckers we get NOTHING!...and we don’t eat!
Live chat rolling on that one too.
Turns out that the trucks, that move everything, and the drivers are more powerful than the threat of using guns. All the truckers need to do is just park their rigs.
As the Good Witch said “You’ve had this power all along”.
