Three quarters of an hour before the passage of the convoy of truckers, citizens had already invaded one of the three viaducts overlooking the highway.
The passage of semi-trailers was highlighted by a salvo of fireworks.
Among the crowd, parents with many children and even grandparents.
People sympathetic to the cause of truckers, but above all citizens exacerbated by the restrictive measures put in place by the government since the start of the pandemic.
This protest movement is gaining considerable momentum and will culminate tomorrow when many citizens of the region intend to travel to Ottawa on board chartered buses, in order to join the demonstrators; people who say they are tired of seeing their rights and freedoms violated.
