Canada’s most populous province, Ontario, will lift its COVID-19 proof-of-vaccination requirements in two weeks. Premier of Ontario announced the decision on Monday, saying he was taken not because of the protests that blocked the border and crippled Ottawa, but because “it’s safe to do so”.
Meanwhile, the busiest border crossing between the United States and Canada has been opened again On Monday, after the police dispersed the last of the protesters who had bottled up the ambassador’s bridge for almost a week in a demonstration against Coronavirus restrictions in Canada. But the most grand truck-protest brought in the capital Ottawa has persisted as city the inhabitants were seething over authorities’ inability to take to the streets.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford said on On March 1, the province drop son requirement that people duty show proof of vaccination to enter restaurants, gymnasiums and sports events. A push of case caused by the crested omicron variant in Canada.
The province will also remove its 50% capacity limit on restaurants on Thursday, four days ahead of schedule. Ford gave no timetable for drop the requirement that people wear face masks protection in public places.
“Let me be very clear: We are moving in this direction because it’s safe to do so. Today announcement is not because of What is happening in Ottawa or Windsor, but despite that,” Ford said.
Ford said he would support of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau government if he proposed new measures to quell the protests.
“We need Law and order. Our country is risk now. It’s not just it’s not happening here in Ottawa, but it’s happening in Alberta and British Columbia,” Ford said. “We won’t accept it.”
Trudeau had planned to meet virtually with The leaders of Provinces of Canada on Monday morning, as well as with legislators.
the prime minister has so far rejected calls to use the military but said, “Everything options are on the table” to end the protests, including by invoking emergency measures. Trudeau called the protesters ‘outsiders’ of Canadian society. Federal and provincial politicians have said they cannot direct police what to do.

“It’s stressful. I feel angry about what’s going on. It’s not Canada. It doesn’t represent us“, Colleen Sinclair, a counter-protester who Lives in Ottawa.
