Police in Canada have been somewhat successful at clearing big rigs from the Ambassador Bridge — one of the most vital links between the United States and Canada.
But the more protesters they move off the bridge, the more arrive to take their place. And in the city of Ottawa, the protesters show no sign of leaving anytime soon.
Other important bridges connecting the United States and Canada, including Coutts, Alberta, which connects to Montana, and Surrey, British Columbia, which connects to Washington state, are also under siege. In Nova Scotia, an important ferry landing has been hit with paralyzing protests.
The Canadian authorities keep threatening to forcibly remove the protesters but have yet to take any action toward that end. Naturally, their credibility has fallen to zero because of their hesitation, and the protesters remain.
In the capital Ottawa, police grappled withan influx of anti-government and anti-vaccine-mandate demonstrators for a third straight weekend despiteboth local and provincial officials declaring states of emergency. Law enforcement appeared to be floundering in their attempts to get Freedom Convoy protesters to leave by threatening them with fines, prison time, and the loss of their licenses.
Ottawa police said Saturday that over 4,000 demonstrators were in the city throughout the day.
“Safety concerns – arising from aggressive, illegal behavior by many demonstrators – limited police enforcement capabilities,” the police said in a statement.
What sort of “illegal behavior”? None is specified, which is in keeping with the propaganda campaign that’s been underway since the Freedom Convoy arrived in Ottawa. The truckers and other protesters are painted as racist Nazis who are trying to overthrow the government and are disrespectful of Canadian liberty.

Senile Joe says it’s time for F-15s and nukes........./s
Too late, Slow Joe already sent our weapons to fight Russia over the Ukraine.
Turns out all we needed was some Peterbilts and Kenworths. No F-15s and nukes needed.
RE: Bill Clinton would have known when to cut his losses.
Love the man or hate the man, Dick Morris was there to advise Slick Willy... and Slick Bill had the good sense to listen to Dick.
I don’t know if Justin has a Dick Morris advising him because he looks as tone deaf as the much older Joe Biden.
Trudeau is between a rock and a hard place. He is toast because the Truckers will hold their ground.
The very effective Passive Resistance tactics of the Truckers has been awesome to behold.
End the tyrannical mandates, Justin.
It’s that simple.
RE: Trudeau is between a rock and a hard place.
An entirely self-created mess. The solution to all this is a simply announcement which he can do at any moment.
This all goes back to one thing. No Pharma, or entity of any kind, should be given a blanket of immunity from legal responsibility for any reason no matter what.
Doing this takes away any effort or barrier to worry about acting with integrity or honor.
They have been given a legal pass to kill and ruin lives.
He is under great pressure from the Globalists not to do that.
He can't.
He has to keep going, all the way to the bitter end. If he gives an inch, the entire house of cards falls on all of the leftist governments who have pushed this disaster.
Their only choice is to try and wait it out and hope that that they can hold on.

Are they holding their ground at Windsor or have they been cleared?
“Safety concerns – arising from aggressive, illegal behavior by many demonstrators – limited police enforcement capabilities,”
hey, who knew that illegal behavior limits police enforcement capabilities!
Yes he can.
He chooses not to. His fragile ego and thirst for power are driving his actions.
I hope it bites him in the azz. Sooner, rather than later.
“Are they holding their ground at Windsor or have they been cleared”?
That was a CBC report. They are as good at deception and propaganda as CNN.
So far there is nothing to indicate the truckers are backing down.
He chooses not to because he’s under tremendous pressure from the Globalists. Their agenda is falling apart.
You are correct, his ego and thirst for power simply will not brook any dissent. Thus, he can’t/won’t relent.
The real question(s) are: how far is he willing to go? and will Canadians let him?
Agenda 21 is in play. One dare not disobey the orders.
Pat King, one of the convoy leaders, put a video on Facebook warning of this. He says ask for badge numbers of people you don’t know and record it. Watch the language. ‘Spies’ are trying to get truckers saying inflammatory things to set them up. It’s on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/therealpatking/videos/3240386296240055/
