Thursday. We continue to wait and watch to see how big this 'Freedom Convoy' will be when it reaches Ottawa on Saturday. CityNews has new polling from Maru Public Opinion on how the Canadians are feeling about this event.
11:30 – “To those coming to Ottawa, obviously in a free society people have a right to protest but it has to be done peacefully. I encourage them to be respectful, they're coming into a community where people live and work.”
Rob speaks with Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson about the preparations the city is making before the convoy arrives.
23:23 – “It sends a signal that the Liberals have not necessary decided it's going to be a minority government, it's another signal that they want those NDP seats back”
'Ontario Politics This Week' featuring strategists Andrew Brander and Lindsay Maskell breaks down the latest news from Queens Park that has insiders taking notice, as we continue to count down to June's provincial election.
