WINDSOR, Ontario (LifeSiteNews) — As the Freedom Convoy continues to rage on in protest of COVID restrictions in Ottawa, American and Canadian truckers have now converged to block access to the Michigan-Ontario border.

American and Canadian truckers have made a convoy blocking access to the border crossing from Michigan into Windsor, Ontario on both sides in solidarity with the growing freedom movement currently protesting COVID measures in Ottawa and elsewhere in Canada. According to the government of Canada’s official website, as of Tuesday afternoon, the crossing, known as the Ambassador Bridge, is “temporarily closed” and the Windsor police are advising people to take alternate routes.

“Congestion continues along Huron Church Rd. Limited traffic is being allowed into U.S. through the Ambassador Bridge. Officers are on scene maintaining traffic points, public safety and enforcement. Please avoid the area and use alternate route. Thanks for your patience,” the Windsor Police stated on social media at noon Tuesday.

“REMINDER: Commercial vehicles are being redirected to the Blue Water Bridge in Sarnia. Local international travel can use the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel (Except for commercial vehicles),” the police added.
