..."What may have begun as a peaceful assembly quickly turned into an unlawful blockade. While the Alberta RCMP has been in a position to conduct enforcement, we have been engaged with protesters at the Coutts border crossing in an effort to find a peaceful and safe resolution for all involved. We thought we had a path to resolution, the protesters eventually chose not to comply," RCMP said in a release.

The RCMP is Canada’s FBI.

I guess you are left with no choice but to beat, cuff and stuff a bunch of violent terroristic CANADIANS.

The blockage is not going away. It is being reinforced. Here's a livestream: Coutts Border Blockage - Western Standard

Yes. Assisted by Dudley Do Right.

We’ll be able to monitor things this side of the border with the help of Schuyler “Sky” King.

“”negatively impacted the flow of goods and services, and impedes the public’s freedom of movement.””

Oh yeah, this is rich!! The truckers are complaining about both these things being caused by totalitarian mandates from on high! The truckers were 10-14 days without work before all this started.

Livestream host said that the RCMP has called multiple tow truck companies to engage in removing the trucks and all have declined.

Exactly!

BLM'ers shutting down highways was about more federal control, ostensibly to fix local government problems.

This truckers protest, though in Canada, is about getting federal government off of people's backs. Thus it can't be tolerated.

I’ve been watching a lot of the convoy and blockage coverage from citizen reports since Friday. It is often pointed out the CTV is typical leftist media in Canada and no different than mainstream media in the US. They lie to fit a leftist narrative. Their reporting does not even closely resemble the truth. At this very moment the blockade is being reinforced with local farm equipment. They have made it past the RCMP checkpoints and have established let another line in the blockade.
