Friday's parade was a protest against claimed government overreach, and came less than three months after a truckers' movement paralyzed the capital for more than three weeks.
Several honking truckers and protesters standing atop of pick-up vehicles and cars, shouting "freedom" marched through downtown Ottawa as police deployed additional officers to get the situation under control. Ottawa Police, which came under criticism for their handling of February protests, had said they would not allow motor vehicles to stop or park on downtown streets. They had brought in additional personnel to bolster municipal authorities ahead of the Friday march.
In a video posted to YouTube, Sheard said his plan is to lay a wreath at the National War Memorial in a show of respect for veterans. Other groups that are participating are protesting more generally against the government and government mandates.
Canadian has no rights to parade? What a pity!
That was a long wind story of bullshit. Your header (click bait) makes it sound like a riot broke out or something. Some people protested i n Ottawa today and your article talks about Truckers in Ottawa months ago. I want my minute back.

Overwhelming majority of Canadians sick of these self-proclaimed “freedom protestors”. Their bravado comes from the FACT that they live in a safe, free and prosperous nation. The ignorance, the flag waving, horn honking & anti-government selfishness is embarrassing. Clownvoy
