There are more police officers on the streets of downtown Ottawa today, and Quebec's public security minister confirms provincial police are being deployed to Gatineau, just across the river from the capital.
In addition to the growing numbers of officers in position to begin clearing the protest in front of Parliament Hill, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland says banks are already freezing accounts.
Freeland says the RCMP has shared the names of individuals, businesses and crypto wallets associated with the protest convoy.
She's telling protesters there is a really easy way to avoid being affected, go home.
