Thursday’s report warns that “the Office of the Prime Minister (PMO) has directed that Freedom Convoy 2022 be dispersed by not [sic] later that [sic] Saturday, 12 February 2022.”

In Canada, politicians cannot direct police operations, but the increasing paranoia of the protesters present a worrying change in tone.

1. I am originally from Canada and very concerned.

I still have a lot of family there on the West side.
This siege in Ottawa is alarming. I really hope it doesn't become violent.
Organizers need to be found and charged, but so should the truckers.
