A truck convoy rolled into Winnipeg on Saturday in support of the cross-Canada freedom convoy in opposition of federal vaccine mandates.
A truck convoy rolled down Portage Avenue in Winnipeg on Saturday in support of the cross-Canada freedom convoy in opposition of federal vaccine mandates.
In a tweet, Winnipeg police said the convoy is making its way through the city and stretches from Broadway to the Perimeter Highway.
Police said to expect traffic delays and to avoid the downtown area.
The cross-Canada convoy passed through Winnipeg on Tuesday, and drew large crowds on both shoulders of Highway 1 in Headingley, just west of Winnipeg to show support.
The convoy was unable to stop as planned due to traffic concerns. RCMP officers were on scene throughout the rally and said in an email the convoy was 20 km long.
The national convoy arrived in Ottawa on Saturday to crowds of protestors.
