(Picture: AP)Ontario’s premier has declared a state of emergency due to the lorry blockades in Ottawa and at the US border and said he will urgently enact laws to crack down on those who interfere with the free flow of goods and people.
Since Monday, scores of drivers protesting against Canada’s Covid-19 restrictions and venting their rage against liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have clogged up the Ambassador Bridge connecting Windsor in Ontario to Detroit, disrupting the car industry on both sides of the border.
