Evidently the Fiends did business with Truckers.

“… Another local business that is open in downtown Ottawa is Iconic Cafè on Slater Street. While the owner declined an interview request because of how busy it was on Saturday afternoon, Nic Langman, an Orillia resident who has attended the protest for two of the three weekends, says the cafè has been more than accommodating to protesters.

On Saturday, the business well exceeded the six-person capacity limit posted outside its entrance. Customers could also be seen inside not following the mask mandate.

“The owner and his staff have been wonderful,” Langman said. “They are saying if someone needs to use a bathroom, they are more than welcome to come here.”

‘The job’s not yet done’: Blair says risk that prompted Emergencies Act still exists

Even after nearly 200 arrests made in Ottawa over the past couple of days in an effort to crack down on “Freedom Convoy” protesters, Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair says the job is “not yet done.”

Following a briefing with law enforcement officials on Sunday morning, the minister said threats that prompted the federal government to invoke the Emergencies Act are ongoing.

“It’s still clear that although they’ve made very significant progress, and we’re pleased with the progress that they’ve made, the job’s not yet done,” he said in an interview on CTV’s Question Period. “The reasons why we had to bring forward these measures, unfortunately, still exist.”

A New York Times feature about an upcoming book by Toronto filmmaker Sarah Polley says it includes allegations of a decades-old violent encounter between her and former CBC Radio host Jian Ghomeshi.

Times reporter Dave Itzkoff zeroed in on a chapter titled “The Woman Who Stayed Silent,” and recounted a passage as saying Ghomeshi “became violent during a sexual encounter in which he ignored her pleas to stop hurting her.”

Ottawa’s mayor says any vehicles seized during the police crackdown on the occupation of the downtown should be sold to cover costs incurred by the city.
