Trucker rally protesters in Canada target Ottawa airport as demonstration reaches 14-day mark


Ottawa, Feb 11 (IANS): A group of protesters moved to the Ottawa airport on Thursday morning as the protest reaches the end of its second week, according to local media.

Nearly 30 pickup trucks arrived at the airport and began driving slowly around the loop in both the arrivals and departures lanes, CTV reported.

One of the organisers said they planned to stay and slow-roll the airport for "hours," CTV said.

The "Freedom Convoy 2022" protest began on January 29 as a rally of truckers against the requirement that Canadian truck drivers crossing the border into the US be fully vaccinated as of mid-January, Xinhua news agency reported.
