Police break up remaining protest at Windsor's Ambassador Bridge
CBC News ^ | 2/13/2022 | Mark Gollom, Samantha Craggs

Officers lined the road near the border and told protesters to move as vehicles towed.

Officers from multiple police forces advanced Sunday morning to clear out the remaining protesters and break-up a days long occupation near the Ambassador Bridge border crossing in Windsor, Ontario.

"Time to leave", police said, as they formed a line and prepared to march forward along Huron Church Road, which leads to the international border crossing connecting Windsor with Detroit.

"If you don't leave, you will be arrested"

Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens told CBC's "Rosemary Barton Live" on Sunday that he heard "several" people were arrested...

Don’t believe this report until you see it and/or confirm it.
The CBC has been pumping dispiriting propaganda and lies, several of their reports have stated the protests was cleared only later to be shown 180% a lie.

Aaaaaad, they need to come back again as soon as the bridge is near opening.
Or, bring on a dump truck and lose its load.

This is the sort of visible demonstration that even the boneheads who watch CNN won’t ignore. Losing that trade is closing nearby businesses. Those businesses voted for the crappola that the commit trash in charge stand for.

Hurt them.

Will those arrested disappear into a hellish gulag like the J6 protestors?

Also Canadian lawyer David Frei is doing a live stream on the situation in Windsor right now at “Viva Frei”...

The protesters actually had left a lane open so there was access...however, most left last night to regroup elsewhere, and there were only a few pickup trucks and individual posters there.

I suspect they had probably arranged this largely symbolic action in advance with the police, who are not all (or probably even mostly) on the side of the government.

One thing that nobody is commenting on is Biden’s interference in Canadian affairs by urging the Canadian government to go full Federal on the protesters.

Since when do the Canadians take orders from the US?

Since the US Dems and Canadian Trudeau are in charge, I guess.

From Viva Frei reporting: They have slowly pushed the protesters two or three blocks from the bridge, and have cleared the bridge. However, the bridge is not open yet for unknown reasons.

What happens next is the big question.

The Canadian fake news media is just as bad as ours. If the police did a reenactment of the march across the Pettus bridge in Selma, turning the fire hoses on the protesters the media would insinuate the truckers had it coming to them, or ignore it altogether. Hence, my revised tagline:

The police want to make sure they don’t get a curve ball thrown at them like a new blockage they need to create and staff a big zone that traffic can move through.

If traffic moves it will have to be controlled under their supervision a giant checkpoint separate from the usual border checkpoints here they have to check and see if anyone is a protester or just normal traffic.

I keep reading these reports about the protestors being removed from around the Ambassador Bridge, but I am not hearing anything about the trucks parked on the bridge.

Have any of the trucks been removed yet????

As soon as everything goes back to normal and the scab tow truck companies get back to Michigan then block it again. Make them do it every day.

I’m told trucks were removed trouble is the cops have been clearly seen in videos I watched putting concrete barriers in.

They have it gummed up themselves for the moment nothing can move across the bridge yet.

We have the same mandates for truckers crossing into the USA. So Trudeau and Brandon are conspirators in re: to the mandates.

Break up meaning beating the snot out of unarmed peaceful protesters; where were cops when BLM went crazy?
