Calgary mayor calling for police enforcement against continued COVID restriction protests
Calgary’s mayor is calling for enforcement against anti-mandate marches through a downtown neighbourhood. Police say approximately 2,000 people took part in opposing protests Saturday.
1/4 I spoke with Beltline residents & businesses this morning. I was in the Beltline this afternoon. The weekly disruption this community faces is not a “protest”. It’s a parade. At Central Memorial Park, it’s a festival with merch & food vendors. Yet no permits or licenses.Opposing protesters got into a confrontation on Saturday, creating a blockage on 17 Ave. S.E., for more than an hour, police say.
“We thank the downtown residents and businesses who worked with our officers on scene to ensure everyone’s safety.”Calgary city council to have regular police briefings about weekly Beltline protests
