Alberta | Blockade at Coutts border crossing lifted

(Coutts) Trucks and other vehicles honking their horns left a town in southern Alberta, ending a blockade that paralyzed a U.S. border crossing for more than two weeks.

Posted at 12:50 p.m.

Protesters had been restricting access to Alberta’s main border crossing at Coutts since Jan. 29 in protest against mandatory vaccinations and broader health restrictions related to COVID-19.

The convoy left a day after the Royal Canadian Mounted Police arrested 13 people and seized a cache of firearms and ammunition.

More details to come.
