Canada's Truckers' Protest Against COVID-19 Measures in 2022
Two organizers of Canada's trucker protests against COVID-19 restrictions in 2022 found guilty of mischief for their roles in the mass protest in Ottawa. The protests, known as the Freedom Convoy, were sparked by a Canadian government vaccine mandate for truck drivers crossing the U.S.-Canada border. The organizers encouraged people to join or remain at the protest despite the adverse effects on downtown residents and businesses.
