The White House has urged Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to use federal powers to get trucks in the ongoing blockade moving again as the fervent COVID-19 demonstrations continue to disrupt economies on both sides of the border.
The so-called “Freedom Convoy” protesters blocked the Ambassador Bridge linking Windsor, Ontario, to Detroit for a fourth consecutive day Thursday, prompting the Biden administration to call on Canadian officials to demand an immediate end to the blockade.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg discussed the matter with their Canadian counterparts, a White House official told CNN. President Joe Biden is “being regularly briefed” on the situation, the official said.
