Canada police move in to clear protesters occupying bridge | Coronavirus pandemic News
Police begin operation to clear demonstrators blocking a bridge linking Canada to the US after a court order to end the blockade took effect.
Canadian police say they are enforcing a court order to clear protesters occupying a key bridge on the Canada-US border, after a judge granted an injunction to end the blockade by people opposing COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
The police action on Saturday comes after demonstrators blocked the Ambassador Bridge, a vital link between Windsor, Ontario, prompting calls from US President Joe Biden to end the blockade. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promised Biden quick action to end the crisis.
On Friday, a judge granted an injunction to end the occupation, while the province of Ontario declared an emergency.
