Ottawa, Canada – The occupation of Canada’s capital by the so-called “Freedom Convoy” continues to reverberate, raising questions about pandemic policies, the limits of public protests, and the presence of far-right, white supremacist groups in the country.
It also has spurred an ongoing discussion about the role of police, as many Ottawa residents said they were abandoned amid threats and harassment from convoy participants, who paralysed the city’s downtown core for three weeks.
