Injunction to take effect at 7:00 p.m. today.

An Ontario court has granted an injunction to remove protesters blocking traffic to the Ambassador Bridge in Windsor.

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice made the ruling, after the Automotive Parts Manufacturers’ Association and Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers' Association applied for the injunction, which received support from the City of Windsor.

Since Monday, demonstrators protesting against COVID-19 mandates have been on the road in front of the bridge.

To give protesters a chance to clear the area, the injunction will take effect at 7:00 p.m.
