Inspired by the mobilization which has lasted for several days and paralyzed the capital Ottawa, French opponents of the vaccine pass would like to immobilize Paris from February 11. The mobilization is organized on social networks. More than 2,500 Internet users have already joined the initiative on Facebook.
Will we soon see in France endless lines of trucks blocking the roads as is happening in Canada, where truck drivers oppose the vaccination pass? For a few days in France, a similar movement seems to appear. On Facebook, a page entitled “The Freedom Convoy” has nearly 270,000 members as of Tuesday, February 8. She calls trucks and cars to rally Paris Friday, February 11. Then, direction Brussels on February 14 for a European gathering.
In France, will small transport companies join the movement? They denounce health measures less than increases in fuel and taxes. For the moment, in Europe, only the Netherlands have experienced the first blockages. In France, the Ministry of the Interior monitors mobilization. The first French rallies are announced on Wednesday February 9.
