This AP report is pretty comprehensive. Was updated around 9:00 PM Eastern. They say that a blockade by semis at Ambasador Bridge by semis was cleared this morning, but more ptotestors have arrived and road is still blocked.

This item in the report regarding protests in Ottawa caught my eye: “Safety concerns — arising from aggressive, illegal behavior by many demonstrators — limited police enforcement capabilities,” Ottawa police said in a statement late Saturday.

Accounts I've read of troubles in Italy leading to Mussolini's takeover spoke of ineffectual responses by government troops to the blackshirts, due to strict orders to avoid hurting anyone.
