“All options are on the table,” Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trindade said today to end a series of protests by health workers who have been blocking the border and the city of Ottawa for two weeks. .
“Everything is on the table because this illegal activity must stop,” he told a news conference.
“Borders can not and will not remain closed,” he said, referring to a conversation he had with US President Joe Biden.
For the past two weeks, a protest movement against health measures has been paralyzing the Canadian capital, Ottawa, as well as several major highways along the US border. Washington yesterday called on Canada to use “federal forces”.
“We never want to develop an army against the population, it is something we must avoid at all costs. “It’s a last-minute, last-minute solution,” he said.
He stressed that above all he would promote a “progressive” approach with enhanced police intervention.
“If you are participating in the protests because you are tired of Covid, you must now understand that you are breaking the law. “The consequences will be more and more serious,” he stressed.
