The Prime Minister is urging protesters to return home as the blockade on Ambassador Bridge continues.
Ford said at last report, there were five truckers at the Ambassador Bridge and the rest were pedestrian cars.
"That trade employs hundreds of thousands of Ontarians who work in auto plants and factories across our great province," Ford said. Ford additionally warned of severe consequences including steep fines and possible license revocation for those who continue to block infrastructure.As the demonstrations stretch into a third weekend in Ottawa, residents continue voicing their frustration, fear and confusion about why the situation is still happening. Ford said all actions taken were to ensure a peaceful resolution and allow goods to continue to be traded.
The Ontario government says it has successfully petitioned a court to freeze access to millions of dollars donated through the online fundraising platform GiveSendGo. The funds were supposed to go towards the trucker convoy protests in which demonstrators were opposing COVID-19 restrictions in Ottawa and at several border crossings.
