RCMP tweeted Thursday morning that traffic is moving — albeit slowly — after a second blockade on a highway leading to the main United States border crossing at Coutts, Alta., had briefly choked it off.
Protesters agreed Wednesday to open a lane on each side of the highway at the crossing, where there has been a blockade since Saturday. But for a time, there was no stream of vehicles crossing the border.
A second blockade about 18 kilometres north of Coutts briefly disrupted traffic and, although numbers have decreased since Wednesday night, there was still a large presence Thursday morning with semi-trailers, heavy equipment and trucks blocking access.
