‘Our city has been completely let down,’ says counter-protester
As an ongoing protest against COVID-19 public health measures continues through its third weekend, resistance from Ottawa residents appears to be growing.
Counter protests began on Saturday, with hundreds marching through Ottawa’s Glebe neighbourhood, and continued Sunday morning as a group of people blocked a major intersection to prevent a number of vehicles from joining the main protest downtown.
The impromptu blockade began to form on Sunday morning at about 9 a.m., when roughly 20 residents stepped into the intersection at Bank Street and Riverside Drive.
