Ontario is declaring a state of emergency in response to convoy protests against public health measures meant to curb the spread of COVID-19, which have caused major disruptions in multiple areas of the province in recent weeks.
Premier Doug Ford made the announcement Friday morning while protest blockades continue to shut down parts of Ottawa’s city core and portions of Windsor’s Ambassador Bridge.
Meanwhile, more protests are expected at Queen’s Park in downtown Toronto, forcing police to close off several roads in the surrounding area.
