Drivers protest paralyzing Ottawa! There are American forces behind the supporters, and Trump and Musk are listed

According to the United States Today, Barron's Weekly and other reports on the 6th, on Sunday, after being occupied by truck drivers who protested the vaccination order for up to 10 days, the Canadian capital Ottawa was almost paralyzed, and Mayor Jim Watson declared a state of emergency. A former U.S. diplomat said U.S. right-wing forces and anti-vaccination groups must stop efforts to fuel protests in Canada. It is understood that supporting the Protests in Canada also includes former US President Trump and Tesla CEO Musk.

The U.S. right has supported the Canadian protests

"Under no circumstances should any group in the United States finance destructive activities in Canada," Bruce Heyman, a former U.S. ambassador to Canada, said on Twitter. "Why are many Republicans 'paying more attention' to the events in Canada than to those in Russia?"

Heyman said anti-vaccination groups and right-wing forces in the United States must stop efforts to fuel protests in Canada. Previously, GoFundMe opened a funding page set up by U.S. groups to support Canadian truck drivers and others protesting covid-19 measures.

Currently, the page is closed. However, the move also angered some U.S. Republican lawmakers who claimed to investigate the site's behavior.

It is understood that former US President Trump and Tesla CEO Musk also expressed support for these truck drivers.

Trump said the truck drivers "are peacefully protesting the harsh policies of the far-left madman Trudeau, whose COVID-19 measures have devastated Canada." ”

Rule out the possibility of using the army to disband protests

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson declared Ottawa a state of emergency on Sunday, saying the ongoing trucker protests in the Canadian capital are now "completely out of control" and that downtown Ottawa remains blocked by opponents of the anti-epidemic measures.

Protesters reportedly arrived in the capital for the first time on Jan. 29, parking large trucks on city streets and setting up tents and makeshift shacks, paralyzing the capital, alarming officials and increasingly disillusioning many residents.

"The current situation is completely out of control," Watson told a local radio station, adding that the protesters "far outnumber our police." ”

"It's clear that we're outnumbered and we're losing this battle," "that has to be reversed, we have to take back our cities." ”

Trudeau, who is in quarantine after testing positive for COVID-19 last week, has ruled out the possibility of using the military to disband the protests.

Trudeau and his family left their downtown home last weekend for safety reasons, and his location was not disclosed.
