Update: Convoy of Trucks Travelling on QEW Through Niagara

Thursday, 27 January 2022 08:05

Slowdowns reported on QEW at Glendale

Supporters have lined some of the highway overpasses in Niagara Falls and St. Catharines as a local convoy of truckers heads to Hamilton where they will rally on Kenora Avenue at 9:30.

From there they will get back on the highway and meet up with the larger Freedom Convoy on its way to Ottawa for Saturday's demonstration.

The drivers are protesting a new rule requiring them to be fully vaccinated when crossing the border.

Truckers in the ``Freedom Convoy'' set out from B-C last week on their way to Ottawa.
