Canada’s capital city of Ottawa is set on Saturday for a “massive” protest against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates with the arrival of convoys of hundreds of vehicles from across the country.

People protest on an overpass above Autoroute 20 as truckers drive in a convoy headed to Ottawa to protest coronavirus disease vaccine mandates for cross-border truck drivers, in Boucherville.

The convoys are scheduled to get in around noon, but already on Friday dozens of vehicles blocked the roads in front of parliament. A total of some 2 700 trucks are expected, a federal government source said. Sloly added that teams will be video taping “all aspects of the demonstration” and warned that anyone breaking the law will be arrested.

Trudeau announced a vaccine mandate for federal workers in October on the eve of the election, and then last month both Canada and the United States imposed one for cross-border truckers.
