Large Crowds Come to Support Ambassador Bridge Freedom Protest, as Windsor Ontario Police Pass Out Warnings

An injunction aimed at ending a blockade by truckers, supporters and protesters at the Ambassador Bridge in Windsor, Ontario went into effect at 7:00pm last night.  However, despite the court order even more people came to support the Freedom Protest.

Ontario police are handing out enforcement warnings in an effort to stop the blockade that has tied up cross-border traffic since Monday:

The last line says, “These measures will be permanent“?

Video from the area (below) shows crowds growing despite the court order.   Any effort to physically enforce the ruling, an outcome of Premier Doug Ford declaring a state of emergency, is going to be challenging – and could backfire.

Meanwhile a recent poll [pdf HERE] shows the truckers have the support of about half the country.  The support for the truckers is greatest amid 18- to 34-year-olds.
