As the Freedom-Convoy continues for a second weekend in downtown Ottawa, a local tow-truck company is refusing to tow vehicles involved in the 

demonstrations.  

In a tweet from Alliance Towing Ottawa, on Saturday February 5, the company states they believe in “choice, freedom and peace” and that their drivers will not tow away any vehicles from the downtown core. 

The towing company has different locations all across the city, including Kanata, Orleans and Gatineau.
