Some of the demonstrators in the so-called “Freedom Convoy” blockade in downtown Ottawa have been arrested with body armour and smoke grenades as a police push to end the convoy encounters with what officials describe as “assaultive” and “aggressive” behaviour by the crowds.
So far, police say they have arrested 47 people at the demonstration on Saturday, raising the number of vehicles towed since Friday to 38. Police say there have been 170 arrests total in their push to clear the blockade.
Since yesterday, 46 vehicles from the secure zone downtown have been removed, Ottawa police said Saturday. In addition, 22 licence plates have been seized and 11 Commercial Vehicle Operator Registrations in Ontario have been suspended.

"Clash"? Is the definition of "clash" somehow different now too? Looks like "ARMED Police in Ottawa ATTACK un-armed, peaceful demonstrators" to me.
Good thing the protestors were able to remain level headed vs. the "trained professionals".
This is communism police being controlled by a dictator stand firm God bless each of you! 💗
Foreign mercenaries(UN forces) on Canadian soil. Shame on Trudeau.
This is how a tyranny looks like. I went many times to Canada. I love the Country, but I will not return there until the tyrant is deposed.
Lol! Looks like the Maple Leaf Land is getting the exposure it desperately needed.
We stand with the peaceful protestors and truckers and farmers of Canada. The fascist authoritative Trudeau and his govt is not letting the peaceful protestors fight for their rights.
Fascist Trudeau should implement what he preached during the Farmers protest in India. He should learn how to be a people's leader from Narendra Modi instead of being a Fascist bigot 😛
Leftist totalitarianism at worst……….I bet Trudeau is on first name terms with Hong Kong's Carrie Lam.
Totally Disgraceful behaviour by the Canadian Government & Police !
This is insane
Breaking the truckers windows, freezing, or stealing, their money, threatening their kids, their pets, Canada is a communist country now. Biden told Turdroll to do this. Biden has already thrown up his wall at Fort Pelosi, called out NG troops, what is in store for American truckers???
And what actually truckers thought. To stop whole country bcz they dont won't to be vaccinated
Whats next. They are against tax,mandatory education etc.
Legal way to fight is to vote on next elections.
It was crazy to think the police would do what's right.. I wanted to believe with my heart but my mind knew better
I saw 0 assaultive crowds.
What I have seen is lots of video of people getting hit with rifle butt repeatedly when already dragged down on the ground.
I saw a petite female report knocked down and repeatedly hit.
I saw an older disabled women, with mobility issues, on a scooter knocked over and trampled on by horses.
I saw a women trying to get a coffee and being intimidated by 3 officers, not letting her get a coffee because, when asked, she said she was from Alberta..
I saw an officer spraying tear gas wildly all over a crowd like he was spraying bug spray. Isn't that suppose to only be used on a person when they are resisting arrest. This was just wildly sprayed around hitting multiple people. None of them looked like they were resisting arrest.
Democrazy?
So painful to watch peaceful, freedom suporting Canadians being violently assaulted by the police they pay to protect them
Idk what was happening between them but I'm on the police's side but it seemed cringe what they were singing infront of the police
If there is violence the police are the ones doling it out.
Mivé lettünk emberek?!
Even if we all struggle with
the pandemic and what's going on
around the world we struggle together,
especially for some lives affected
permanently now. It won't be fair if some
people are happy and some people are
sad. I feel that if the pandemic is over some people will be ok and some lives are permanently affected and that’s not fair
In the end JT ordered the Emergencies Act with decisive action.
Without it the occupation would still be ongoing.
In the end, the judges decides the fate of these separatists. It was never about "truckers", but an attempt to smear the government. They failed. Miserably.
During the week I interviewed Tom Marazzo on my podcast Be My Guest (SW Ireland). I hope you enjoy listening to it and please feel free to share it. I am overjoyed with the positive reaction to it. …………Mary ……….. @
Is the convoy still going strong? No new coverage ever since the war started
Let me fix that.. "Tyrants in Ottawa clash with peaceful protesters."
Gas em and drag em to jail
Support for the police.. these Dead Heads will wake up some time soon.
Clash? Police beat peaceful protesters.
No violence in here. Only shouting. They walk with a guns would they use them on citizens?
We aint going to take it anymore!!!
