Canadian police have started arresting leaders of the trucker-led protest that has blocked the capital's streets for three weeks and prompted the government to invoke a rarely used emergency act
A video shared to a Twitter account for the so-called"Freedom Convoy" showed protest leaders Tamara Lich and Chris Barber being taken into police detention.
Canadian police have begun arresting leaders of the trucker-led protest that has choked the capital's streets for three weeks and provoked the government into calling on rarely used emergency powers. Earlier, Lich posted a tearful video to say she was expecting to be arrested. She called on supporters to flood the capital, saying truckers already in place "are gonna stay and fight for your freedom."But city police chief Steve Bell said access to downtown Ottawa would be restricted to prevent people from joining the demonstration, and he warned of "imminent" action against those already there.
