Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau blames Americans for the civil unrest causing gridlock along the U.S.-Canada border and in Canada’s capital city of Ottawa.

Trudeau on Friday said that Americans were funding the “Freedom Convoy” protesters who have demonstrated against vaccine mandates and other COVID-19 restrictions in Ottawa for over two weeks. Other protesters have blocked off crossings along the U.S.-Canada border, including the Ambassador Bridge connecting Detroit to Canada.

“This morning, I had a direct call with President Biden to talk about our shared challenges at the border,” Trudeau said, according to Just The News. “I updated him on the situation, particularly in Windsor.”

Poilievre to Trudeau: 'eliminate these mandates' and 'let the protesters go back to their jobs'

"While the rest of the world, and provinces across Canada are beginning to remove restrictions and mandates, Trudeau decided to pile new ones on, targeting truckers' livelihoods."

Shadow Minister Pierre Poilievre told Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday that he must lift the COVID restrictions and that this would end the protests nationwide.

"It's clear that Justin Trudeau has caused a political emergency," Poilievre stated.

"While the rest of the world, and provinces across Canada are beginning to remove restrictions and mandates, Trudeau decided to pile new ones on, targeting truckers' livelihoods," Poilievre said.

"And now, he's got protests right around the country. Now, he's dropping in the polls, desperately trying to save his political career and save face for himself."

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau addressed media on Monday, where he invoked the Emergencies Act in order to deal with the freedom protests that have broken out across Canada at border crossings and major cities. Specifically, the prime minister referred to "illegal blockades" and claimed that freedom protesters were guilty of "harassment" and that their protests were not peaceful.

Rumours circulated that the prime minister would invoke the act, following a late-night cabinet meeting on Sunday. The prime minister would go on to hold private meetings with premiers on Monday, as well as another meeting with his caucus.
