Canada's 'Freedom Convoy' Occupies Ottawa Against Vaccine Mandates

Truckers and anti-mandate protesters occupy Ottawa's downtown core and blockade U.S.-Canada border crossings in protest of COVID-19 vaccine mandates. Prime Minister Trudeau invokes the Emergencies Act on February 14 — the first use of the Act since its 1988 creation — to clear the blockades. The protest becomes a global symbol of anti-mandate movements.
