'Freedom Convoy' anniversary may draw 500 people to Parliament hill, security warns
A year ago, news about the so-called “Freedom Convoy” was dominating the headlines. Trucks were allowed to roll in and occupy the streets near Parliament Hill for weeks, and protests stalled trade at several border crossings. One year later, Ottawa police are stepping up their presence as hundreds of people are expected on Parliament Hill this weekend. Global News’ chief political correspondent looks at the impact the convoy is having on national politics.
