Group of protesters targeting Ottawa International Airport
A group of people protesting against Canada’s pandemic rules slow traffic to and from Ottawa’s main airport on Thursday morning.
Traffic cameras showed a group of vehicles heading towards 8 a.m. ET.
AIRPORT UPDATE: About 30 vehicles are going around the loop right now. They impede traffic if you are unfamiliar. The auditor called me and said it was “intimidating”. #otttraffic #Ottnews https://t.co/CcPlSAtZmq
A live stream from the account of Pat King, an influential voice among the anti-vaccine warrant crowd, shows vehicles circling the arrivals and departures area of Ottawa International Airport.
At around 8 a.m., there were still more than 50 flights scheduled to arrive or depart the airport on Thursday. CBC News has contacted the airport authority for comment.
This is the 14th day of these protests in Ottawa.
