life, Myer was involved with philanthropic, scientific and arts organisations. Early life and education Myer was born on 11 January 1926 in San Francisco, California. He was one of four children of Sidney Myer, who founded the Australian department store chain Myer in 1900, and Merlyn Myer ( Baillieu). Because Sidney Myer's divorce from his first wife was not recognised under Australian law, his second wife, Merlyn, travelled to San Francisco for the birth of each of her four children so that they would be considered legitimate. Baillieu had an older brother, Ken, and two sisters, Neilma and Marigold. In 1929, the family moved to Toorak, Victoria, Australia. Myer attended Geelong Grammar School where one of his teachers was the historian Manning Clark. He served as a sub-lieutenant in the Royal Australian Navy during World War II aboard HMAS Pirie. After the war, he studied commerce at the University of Melbourne for one year and then attended Pembroke College at the University of Cambridge where he received a Master of Arts degree in economics. He then trained in retail at Macy's in New York and Harrods in London. In London, he worked with the speech therapist Lionel Logue to manage his stammer. Business career Myer joined his family's business, the Myer Emporium, in 1949, and was named executive director | down from his position as executive director in 1972 but remained on Myer's board. After Ken Myer's retirement, Myer became the non-executive chairman of the board in 1978. He was named executive chairman of the company in 1983 during a major recession and led its takeover of the department store chain Grace Bros. that year. He also oversaw the Myer Emporium's merger with GJ Coles & Coy to create Coles Myer and served as the deputy chairman of the merged company from 1986 to 1994. He was named a Companion of the Order of Australia as part of the 1990 Australia Day Honours "for service to business and commerce, to government and to the community". He retired from the company in 1994. Outside of his family's business, Myer was a director and chairman of the financial services company National Mutual from 1978 to 1992. He was a member of the boards of Cadbury Schweppes, the Commonwealth Bank, Henry Jones IXL, Elders IXL, N M Rothschild & Sons and Ten Network Holdings. Other activities Myer was actively involved in philanthropic, scientific, arts and agricultural activities. He and Ken Myer established the Myer Foundation, a philanthropic organisation, |
lighting system and served as the electrician for the troupe. Another volunteer, Nancy Christensen, provided accompaniment on a small organ for the occasional musical. First two seasons Borum brought two of her LACC drama students along for the first season. Ray Aghayan, an established designer-director for small theaters, would fullfil the same roles in Tustin. Jacquelyn Sue Browne, who had won an LACC award for Best Actress, would play female leads under the stage name "Cathy Browne" (which she later changed to "Kathie Browne"). Plays were presented Tuesday through Saturday evenings, with a two-week run for each play. The plays were all stock work from recent decades; no original productions were mounted the first two years. Only three already notable actors appeared in the first two seasons: Bobs Watson, Tony Carbone, and Beverly Long. A few younger performers would later become well known in other mediums: Cathy Browne, Zeev Buffman, and Sherwood Price. The rest of the casts those first two seasons were local amateurs. Browne was very popular with the Tustin audience, playing one of the female leads in nearly every production those first two seasons. Price, who had a touring company background, was brought on for the second season and proved popular with both the audience and Browne. Browne and Price announced their engagement at the close of the second season, marrying in November 1953. Leadership change Borum turned over the producer role to newlyweds Browne and Price during spring 1954, as she had a commitment to produce a play at the Ivar Theatre in Hollywood that summer. She took designer/director Ray Aghayan with her (they were married from 1955 to 1971). The new producers were granted a two-year lease, which in August 1955 was renewed as a three-year lease. Browne and Price expanded the number of plays performed each season from four to five, retaining the two week run of each. They also instituted a series of five original children's plays, written by Sadie Hurwitz, to be performed on Saturday afternoons, which would also change every other week. From previous experience Price knew these matinees were moneymakers, at a time when less than half of American homes owned television sets. Local amateurs and drama school apprentices provided the cast for the matinees, while by 1956 leads for the evening productions were all professional actors. This had its drawbacks; the producers could not afford to hire understudies. When the star of one 1956 play was delayed on a television set in Burbank, the audience chose to wait two hours rather than accept their admission charge back. The producers also experimented with winter matinees for children and a winter play for families put on at the Tustin High School auditorium. Another innovation was a Sunday night revival of Victorian theatre, with a melodrama and musical variety acts. They also presented the only original evening production ever done at the Playbox, a musical revue called Line Up the Girls!, written by locals Bob Bowers and Sadie Hurwitz. Community involvement The Tustin Playbox depended on community support in the form of volunteers, who handled the technical aspects of productions, and sponsors, who arranged summer housing for visiting actors and used their influence to ensure the school district remained amenable to renting its facilities. The most vital local support for the Tustin Playbox came from the owners of the The Tustin News, William and Lucille Moses. Their weekly newspaper provided coverage for all of the producer's forthcoming plans and actual productions, and in later seasons Lucille Moses would provide reviews under her own byline. The paper also gave space to covering the growing screen careers of Browne and Price.

A number of Tustin residents formed the Tustin Playbox Association with two primary aims: to find or build a nearby permanent venue for the performing company, and to sponsor year-round performances. The producers encouraged this effort, but neither aim was ever achieved. Growth With each new season, the reputation of the Tustin Playbox grew, bringing in full houses. Tustin lay near existing road, rail, and bus networks, allowing easy access for actors coming from Hollywood and audiences from all directions. It's nearest competitor, the Laguna Beach Playhouse, had suffered a mid-season breakdown in 1955 when its production company dissolved, and was off to a late start for the 1956 season. As actors, Browne and Price began receiving parts in television shows and films from producers who had seen their performances. As producers, they were recruited by the Laguna Beach community to also take over the Playhouse, which they agreed to do for the 1957 season only. The Playbox benefited from drawing quality stage directors, including William Schallert, Robert Cornthwaite, and Joseph Sargent. Price's best friend, upcoming actor Robert Vaughn, also lent a hand at directing. Actress Nancy Hadley had received a significant boost to her television work after appearing in several plays at Tustin during the 1954 season. Later seasons Standing room only crowds at many Tustin productions drove Price to negotiate with the school district to begin using the much larger auditorium of Tustin High School for the eighth season (1959). This had a raised stage, curtains, lighting, and backstage areas, enabling the company to abandon center staging. The school district also wanted to repurpose the now outdated Tustin Grammar School.

trusted advisor of King Frederick II of Germany. Conrad was born around 1175. His father was Frederick of Tanne. His brother became the bishop of Constance. He had no sons and one daughter, Irmengard, who married Conrad of Schmalnegg. Irmengard's fourth son, Ulrich of Winterstetten, became a prolific Minnesänger. She and Conrad had six other sons (Henry, Conrad, Eberhard, Rudolf, Herman, Burkhart) and four daughters (Matilda, Guta, Elizabeth, Engelburg). Conrad held the office of (Latin pincerna, German Schenk). This was one of four great offices of state (the others being marshal, seneschal and chamberlain). In practice, the office was held as a hereditary fief and divided between several holders on a regional basis. Conrad exercised the butlership of Swabia from the new castle of , which had been granted to him by Frederick II. Career Henry (VII) When Frederick II left Germany for Italy in 1221, he put his son Henry (VII) in Conrad's care. Henry was about ten years old and had been elected king of Germany in 1220 after Frederick's coronation as Holy Roman Emperor. Frederick left the royal insignia with Conrad's uncle, Eberhard of Tanne–Waldburg. A document of 1222 refers to Conrad and Eberhard "who at that time had stood as procurators of the land and the royal business." The land of which they were procurators was the Duchy of Swabia. In 1232, Conrad witnessed Frederick's confirmation of Henry's Statutum in favorem principum. When Henry rebelled | noster). Conrad of Winterstetten continued to govern the duchy of Swabia under Conrad IV. He witnessed five royal charters between 1237 and 1241. One of his personal charters was drawn up at the royal court during the same period and two more were confirmed by the king. A document of 1240 refers to Conrad as "butler of the lord king and procurator of Swabia" (pincerna domini regis et Sweuie procurator). Around February 1238, Frederick II charged Conrad, Godfrey of Hohenlohe, Conrad of Schmiedelfeld and Archbishop Siegfried of Mainz with raising an army in Germany to fight in Italy against the pope. In 1239, he and Ottoberthold of Waldburg judged a dispute over woodlands between the abbots of Isny and Kempten. In November that year, he took part in a major gathering of Conrad IV's counsellors at Schwäbisch Hall. Conrad may have commissioned the , which lists the tax liabilities of imperial towns. He may have been organizing Conrad's war-chest for the continuing war against the pope in Germany. He is mentioned it in as one receiving the tax revenues of various places, including Zürich, as compensation for his services. Conrad founded Baindt Abbey. In October 1241, Conrad IV placed it under royal protection and guaranteed its freedom from lesser royal officials. In May 1242, Conrad was with the royal court in Rothenburg as it planned an expedition against Archbishop of Mainz, who had defected to the pope. Death and |

Crosley ended its sponsorship on March 26, 1950. A review of This Is Broadway In Radio Best magazine's October 1949 issue said, "Here is a show that started slowly, but built. As of end of summer, it is one of the outstanding variety pieces on the radio side of the dial." It noted that earlier difficulties, primarily presenting guests who really had no problems with which they needed help, had been resolved. In September 1951.

Protesting listeners began calling CBS before the episode ended, and letters of complaint went to the sponsor, American Tobacco Company, and to CBS in the days that followed. CBS officials responded by asking Kaufman not to return for the three remaining episodes (all that were scheduled at that time). Sources close to the program said that several hundred complaints came in, some of which contained threats to boycott the sponsor if Kaufman did not leave.

in Oklahoma since January 2015 following two controversial executions in the state. The first, that of Clayton Lockett on April 29, 2014, involved Lockett having a violent reaction after being injected with the sedative midazolam; witnesses reported that Lockett twitched, convulsed, and spoke expressing his physical distress. Officials halted the execution, but Lockett died of a heart attack 43 minutes after the execution process began. Lockett's execution marked the first time Oklahoma had ever used midazolam as the first drug in their three-drug cocktail. The state subsequently revised their protocols to increase the dosage of midazolam administered to inmates. The second controversial execution, and the one ultimately leading to the moratorium, was that of Charles Frederick Warner, who was executed in Oklahoma on January 15, 2015, using the protocol that increased the amount of midazolam administered. During the execution, Warner reportedly said, "It feels like acid," and "My body is on fire," but otherwise did not show any other signs of physical distress. Warner's execution took approximately 18 minutes. Days following Warner's execution, the Supreme Court of the United States agreed to hear an argument from several Oklahoma death row inmates arguing that the state's lethal injection protocol violated the Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibiting cruel and unusual punishment. In June 2015, in a 5–4 vote, the Supreme Court upheld Oklahoma's usage of midazolam, after which the state scheduled the execution of Richard Glossip to take place in September 2015. Shortly before Glossip's scheduled execution, the state learned that a drug supplier had sent the Oklahoma Department of Corrections a supply of potassium acetate rather than potassium chloride. Potassium chloride is the third drug prescribed in Oklahoma's lethal injection protocol. An autopsy on Charles Warner's body revealed that the state had used potassium acetate during his execution as well. Then-Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin issued a last-minute stay of execution for Glossip, while then-Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt indefinitely stayed all executions in the state so that his office could investigate the error, stating that his office and the state had "a strong interest in ensuring that the execution protocol is strictly followed." Resumption of executions in Oklahoma A grand jury consisting of Oklahomans from several counties reviewed Oklahoma's execution protocol and recommended several revisions. On February 13, 2020, Oklahoma announced intentions to resume carrying out executions by lethal injection while following the recommended protocol revisions, stating that although they had explored nitrogen gas asphyxiation as a potential substitute, the state had found a "reliable supply of drugs" for future lethal injections. The revisions included verifying that the proper execution drugs have been ordered and will be used at each step, and providing more training for the corrections team tasked with carrying out executions. The revised protocol still included the usage of midazolam, alongside the muscle relaxant vecuronium bromide, and potassium chloride. A federal lawsuit filed by 32 Oklahoma death row inmates is scheduled to be heard on February 28, 2022; it seeks to challenge Oklahoma's lethal injection protocol in an effort to have it declared unconstitutionally cruel and unusual, in violation of the US Constitution's Eighth Amendment. Of the inmates on the original challenge, 26 provided the federal court with alternative methods of execution, including seven agreeing to the usage of different drug combinations that did not contain midazolam, and 19 agreeing to the firing squad. The other six inmates, including John Grant, failed to offer an alternative method of execution. Their failure to offer an alternative method led to them being dropped from the lawsuit, soon after which they had execution dates set, with Grant's execution being scheduled first out of the six, for October 28, 2021. While the challenge to lethal injection is scheduled to be heard by Federal Judge Stephen P. Friot in February 2022, meaning that the other 26 inmates will not be executed until the challenge is heard, Friot ruled that the executions of those inmates who had | is scheduled to be heard on February 28, 2022; it seeks to challenge Oklahoma's lethal injection protocol in an effort to have it declared unconstitutionally cruel and unusual, in violation of the US Constitution's Eighth Amendment.

While the challenge to lethal injection is scheduled to be heard by Federal Judge Stephen P. Friot in February 2022, meaning that the other 26 inmates will not be executed until the challenge is heard, Friot ruled that the executions of those inmates who had refused to propose an alternative could move forward. In his ruling, he stated, "The case is complete in this court as to these five plaintiffs." Appeals and execution Appeals for clemency Grant made several appeals for a commutation of his sentence to life without parole prior to his execution. One, in 2014, was unanimously rejected after Grant's attorneys claimed that his murder of Carter was motivated by an alleged romantic relationship that he had with her. The victim's daughter Pam Carter called the allegation "heinous," stating, "I lost my mother, and now I feel victimized all over again." Grant's final appeal to Oklahoma's pardons and paroles board was in early October 2021, weeks before his death. This time, Grant's attorneys focused on his troubled upbringing and extensive prison history. Grant's attorneys also insisted that Grant was remorseful for Carter's murder. Oklahoma officials countered by stating that Grant's conviction and sentence had been upheld by numerous courts. They also mentioned a 2005 incident in which Grant assaulted a fellow death row inmate who subsequently required stitches, as well as two incidents in 2008 and 2009 where he threatened corrections officials. The board rejected Grant's second clemency appeal by a 3–2 vote. Execution On October 28, 2021, at 3:15 PM, approximately 45 minutes before Grant's scheduled execution time, an internal report claimed that Grant was observed "hurried[ly]" eating and drinking a large amount of potato chips and soda. A restraint team took him to get a shower, after which he was escorted to the execution chamber. Grant's execution began at approximately 4:00 PM. Eyewitness accounts of what happened during Grant's execution varied. Grant reportedly shouted, "Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!" from behind a curtain. Afterwards, the curtain was raised, at which point Grant shouted a "stream of profanities." Witnesses agreed that after the first drug, midazolam, was administered, Grant began convulsing and vomiting. Several minutes after Grant began vomiting, two members of the execution team wiped the vomit from his face and neck. Sean Murphy, a reporter with the Associated Press who had witnessed 14 lethal injections at the time of Grant's, stated that Grant "began to convulse – pretty hard, I would say – and then began vomiting about a minute later." Murphy described Grant's convulsions as "full body" and "pretty violent," stating that Grant continued to breathe until one minute after the second drug began flowing. Murphy said, "I've never seen an inmate vomit. I've witnessed about 14 executions and . . . I've never witnessed that before." Grant requested that a public defender named Julie Gardner attend his execution. Gardner, who had seen six executions prior, told reporters that Grant's execution was the first she had seen where midazolam was used. She called the execution "horrifying" and stated that it looked peaceful at first, but Grant began struggling to breathe, gasping for breath, and struggling to raise a shoulder from the gurney seven minutes after the midazolam was administered. Gardner stated, "It appeared like he was drowning in his own vomit." Another one of Grant's requested witnesses, public defender Meghan LeFrancois, also reported that Grant struggled to breathe and gasped for air during the execution and that his back arched off of the gurney at one point. LeFrancois claimed that Grant's breathing did not calm until more than six minutes into the execution process. Several Oklahoma officials who witnessed the execution contested the graphic press accounts of Grant's execution. Scott Crow, the Director of the Oklahoma Department of Corrections, said in a news conference the day after the execution that contrary to reports of Grant convulsing and breathing, Grant began snoring lightly seconds after being administered midazolam. Crow said, "There's different opinions as to what occurred next. . . . There's some that have indicated that [Grant dry-heaved] two dozen [times]. From my vantage point, I didn't see that." Crow stated that, "There were no instances of any unusual behavior throughout the drug protocol, other than the . . . regurgitation." Crow accused reporters of publishing "embellished" accounts of Grant's execution and declared that the Department of Corrections was not "planning any new changes" to their protocols in response to Grant's execution. Oklahoma paid an anesthesiologist, Dr. Ervin Yen, to observe the execution from a separate witness room behind the media. Yen stated that Grant's execution had been smooth and occurred without errors and that Grant appeared to have been unconscious and incapable of feeling pain between 30 and 45 seconds after receiving a dose of midazolam. Yen claimed that the midazolam alone was likely Grant's cause of death. In February 2022, results from Grant's autopsy were made public. The findings, which were recorded the day after Grant's execution and finalized on January 24, 2022, largely corroborated what media witnesses had stated regarding Grant's physical reaction to the lethal injection drugs. Dr. Jeremy Shelton of the Oklahoma State Medical Examiner's office found that Grant had inhaled vomit into his airway. The autopsy also showed that Grant's lungs were "heavy" with fluid and that he likely experienced "flash pulmonary edema" as liquid quickly built up in his lungs, giving Grant a feeling akin to suffocation or drowning. Lethal injection experts have likened the sensation to waterboarding, a form of torture, and described it as "drowning, asphyxia, and terror." Grant's lungs were 1390 grams at the time of the autopsy, more than three times the weight of an average human lung, and he suffered intramuscular bleeding of his tongue, a common phenomenon found in victims of drowning and asphyxiation. After the execution, Robert Dunham, the executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center, criticized Attorney General Crow for accusing reporters of exaggerating what happened during the execution, stating, "When self-interested public officials deny reality, it further undermines public confidence in everything they do. When it comes to capital punishment, it suggests that Oklahoma can't be trusted with the death penalty. If they're not willing to tell the truth about things that neutral, objective reporters have seen with their own eyes, then what else aren't they telling the truth about?"

situation of the demonstration has scaled down over the last 12 hours" and that "We want that trend to continue until this demonstration comes to a complete end. I cannot guarantee you that right now but I can guarantee that every effort at negotiation, coordination, de-escalation, has continued throughout the last four days and will continue until the complete end of this demonstration." On February 1, large downtown Ottawa amenities like Rideau Centre and the National Arts Centre continued to stay closed due to security concerns. Ottawa police set up a hotline for hate-motivated crimes to be reported. On the night of February 1, Ottawa Police said that about 250 protesters remained around and on Parliament Hill. A video circulated showing protesters appropriating First Nations drumming while dancing, drinking beer, and chanting "yabba dabba doo" and "fuck Trudeau". Senator and Mi'kmaq leader Brian Francis tweeted: "I am disgusted, appalled and saddened. This blatant act of racism must be vehemently condemned by all. Drumming is sacred to all First Nations. Our ways of life should never be mimicked, mocked and appropriated for political or other gain." The Algonquins of Pikwàkanagàn First Nation, whose traditional unceded territory includes the city of Ottawa, issued a statement condemning protesters who held an Indigenous pipe ceremony and set up a tepee in the city's Confederation Park without the First Nation's permission on February 2. On February 2, organizers of the protest said that they would not leave Ottawa until governments across Canada "end all mandates associated with COVID-19" and will stay "as long as it takes for freedom to be restored". On February 3, the protesters started building a wooden structure in Confederation Park and gathering fuel supplies. Social media reports suggested that the structure is intended to serve as a community kitchen for the protesters. On February 6, Ottawa Police promised to increase enforcement on protesters, including handing out tickets and arresting anyone who attempts to bring material aid, such as fuel, to protesters. A state of emergency was declared by the City of Ottawa on the same day. In a statement, the city said that its declaration "reflects the serious danger and threat to the safety and security of residents posed by the demonstrations and highlights the need for support from other jurisdictions and levels of government". On the evening of February 6, Police performed a raid on a stockpile hub of supplies for protesters, seizing fuel and making two arrests for mischief. An emergency debate of the House of Commons was held on the night of February 7, at the request of NDP leader Jagmeet Singh. Trudeau stated that the convoy is "trying to blockade our economy, our democracy and our fellow citizens' daily lives. It has to stop." Transport minister Omar Alghabra used the debate to encourage Ontario Premier Doug Ford to use regulatory powers to discourage the occupation, such as suspending commercial licences or insurance of the truckers. As of February 7, the Children's Aid Society (CAS) was working with the OPS to ensure the welfare and safety of the children who are living in about 25% of the 418 convoy trucks, according to Ottawa Police Deputy Chief Steve Bell. Concerns were raised about sanitation, noise levels, and fumes. According to the Canadian Press, there were about 100 children living in the convoy trucks as of February 8. Bell said that the presence of children is an "important factor" complicating a "challenging operation". By February 9, people with police, military and survivalist experience had helped the protesters set up camp with tents and wooden kitchens, creating a supply chain to ensure continued protest. The logistic centre at the Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton Park (RCGP) baseball stadium includes trailers of food, tents, toilets and distribution points for gasoline and propane. The Freedom Convoy's head of security and spokesman is Daniel Bulford, a former RCMP officer who served on Prime Minister Trudeau's security detail. Police on Guard, a Facebook group of about 100 police officers, mainly retired, and 50 soldiers endorse the convoy. Two serving members of the Joint Task Force 2 (JTF2) are under investigation for alleged involvement. On February 10, leaders of the Freedom Convoy declared February 11 an "orange shirt day" and called for student walkouts to end COVID-19 restrictions in schools. Indigenous leaders condemned this announcement as misappropriation. On Day 15, February 11, Doug Ford declared a state of emergency in Ontario as protesters continued to occupy the Ambassador Bridge, while Ford referred to the situation in downtown Ottawa as a "siege". By February 12, police had cleared trucks from the bridge, with busloads of police, some with heavy weapons, and an armoured vehicle. By day 14, February 10, the newest tactic was "convoy circles". Ottawa-Centre MPP Joel Harden noted that a "convoy organizer" had been encouraging protesters to form them around public schools in Ottawa. A group of about 60 convoy vehicles headed to the Ottawa Macdonald–Cartier International Airport at 8 a.m., slow-circling it, honking and blocking traffic until about 10 a.m., then returned to their Coventry Road, one of three Ottawa protest encampments. Chief Stoly said many "vexatious calls" from the United States to 9-1-1 flooded the system and endangered lives. Mayor Watson sent a letter to Tamara Lich and Keith Wilson to negotiate terms with protesters. On February 13 afternoon, Mayor Watson's Office said that they had reached an agreement with protesters limiting the protest perimeter to "Wellington Street, between Elgin Street and the Sir John A. Macdonald Parkway" to "reduce pressure on residents and businesses". Truckers will leave residential neighbourhoods. On February 15, Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly resigned after weeks of criticism aimed at his handling of the protests. Organizers Chris Barber and Tamara Lich were each arrested on February 17. Lich's bank account had previously been frozen. Organizer Pat King was later arrested on February 18, and an Alberta woman in the convoy, Kerry Komix, offered $50,000 for bail. The Crown lawyer noted that allowing her to act as surety was like "one thief being tasked to supervise another burglar." Komix was listed as the co-creator of a crypto donation platform. King was denied bail on February 25, after the presiding Justice ruled that Komix was not suitable surety, and expressed concern that King had a high risk of reoffending. On February 28, a convoy leader from High Prairie, Alberta named Tyson 'Freedom George' Billings was denied bail. Various nearby rural areas became new encampments for the protesters. More than fifty trucks moved to a truck stop in Champlain Township, near Vankleek Hill, immediately following the Ottawa clearance. In interviews, those at the site mention plans to continue the convoy, with no specifics. Sites have also opened in Trent Lakes and near Kinburn, in Carleton County. (Protesters originally intended to use the Arnprior Airport.) As of February 17, 2022, a farm in Russell Township, outside of Embrun, continued to be used by truckers as a convoy base camp. The Ontario Provincial Police is monitoring the site. As of February 20, the site near Kinburn remained active. Prime Minister Trudeau has commented, saying the groups were showing a "desire or an openness" to return. "A few days" before February 21, a convoy from Fort McMurray, Alberta was turned away at the Manitoba border. At a special meeting of the Ottawa Police Services Board on February 24, Acting Chief Bell feels the Highway Traffic Act and other laws would be enough to manage a possible return, despite removal of the Emergencies Act. Major blockades Alberta–Montana On January 29, the date that the Freedom Convoy arrived in Ottawa, a group of truckers blockaded the Sweetgrass–Coutts Border Crossing—one of the busiest ports of entry west of the Great Lakes which connects Sweet Grass, Montana, via U.S. Interstate 15 with the village of Coutts, Alberta, via Alberta Highway 4. The United States Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is located at this crossing, making it the principal port of entry for Alberta's large meat industry, and one of three main points where all meat products from the rest of western Canada cross the border, according to the Canadian Meat Council. The group of around 100 protesters demanded an end to all COVID-19 restrictions. The blockade, which extended about into Canada, also blocked public and emergency vehicle access to the village of Coutts, prompting condemnation from the town's mayor. Alberta Premier Jason Kenney called the blockade illegal, and threatened that protesters would face penalties under the province's Critical Infrastructure Defence Act. Alberta RCMP initially negotiated with protesters for a peaceful end to the blockade, and protesters agreed to release about 50 vehicles trapped on Highway 4 and U.S. Interstate 15. On February 1, police ceased negotiations and demanded that protesters leave the highway, and set up a police roadblock on Highway 4 about north of Coutts. A few vehicles left, most remained, and several incidents of violence against police and civilians were reported, including protesters ramming RCMP vehicles. Some vehicles wanting to join the blockade evaded the RCMP roadblock by driving through a ditch and drove south in the highway's northbound lanes, resulting in a head-on collision. The two men involved in the collision were taken to hospital. On February 12, due to ongoing protests, CBSA suspended all travel at the Coutts border crossing. On February 14, RCMP stepped in and arrested 13 people, seizing long guns, handguns, body armour, a large amount of ammunition and high capacity magazines. Four men were subsequently charged with conspiracy to murder RCMP officers. The border crossing was reopened on February 15. Ontario–Michigan Protesters at the Ambassador Bridge, connecting Windsor, Ontario, with Detroit, Michigan, and one of the busiest international border crossings in North America, blockaded the border crossing on February 7. On the evening of February 7, movement at the bridge came to a complete halt. The blockade continued into February 8. On the morning of February 8, officials declared the bridge reopened, but the blockade resumed, pushing trips to the Blue Water Bridge connecting Sarnia and Port Huron. Supply shortages caused by the blockade led to work shortages at Ford Motor Company's assembly plants in Oakville and in Lansing, Michigan, and shut down its Windsor plant. Parts manufacturers for Chrysler were also shut down, and on February 10, Toyota revealed that its three Ontario plants could not produce vehicles for the rest of the week. The Bank of Canada warned that the blockade could have a "measurable impact" on the Canadian economy. The Windsor-Essex Children's Aid Society condemned protesters for using children as human shields during the protest. On the morning of February 12, aided by Ontario Provincial Police and the RCMP, Windsor Police began to clear out the blockade using new powers. Despite the heavy police presence, by the end of the day on February 12, most protesters remained, although had been pushed much further from the bridge. Police arrested two individuals, towed 7 vehicles and issued 11 tickets. On the morning of February 13, joint police forces took control of the area and began to make arrests. In the late evening of February 13, the Ambassador Bridge had fully reopened. 42 arrests were made in total, with 37 vehicles seized. Windsor Police requested resources from other police organizations on February 9, 2022, after the number of participants climbed to around 100, with between 50 – 70 vehicles. Windsor, Ontario, where the convoy blocked the Ambassador Bridge, intervened in an action by automobile manufacturers in Superior Court for an injunction. Mayor Drew Dilkens declared his intention to clear the bridge with the assistance of police reinforcements. An injunction was granted February 11 effective 7 p.m. A deadline of midnight was set. Local police were to be employed to clear the bridge. At 9 a.m., police from several Ontario cities, including London, Ontario, were at the bridge in force together with buses and tow trucks, an armored personnel carrier, and a sniper. The Windsor police announced via Twitter that enforcement had begun. Some protestors, after discussion with police, had peacefully departed with their vehicles. The police, from Windsor and 5 other jurisdictions, succeeded in clearing the area of tractor-trailers, but a large crowd gathered in the area; the crowd was peaceful, even festive, singing the national anthem, but the bridge remained closed. The police maintained a strong presence in the area, but did not attempt mass arrests. In the evening one arrest was made. The protesters were completely cleared by February 13 at approximately 8 a.m, although the border was not immediately opened. The bridge re-opened Sunday evening with 25 to 30 people arrested and 12 small vehicles seized. There was a substantial police presence and Jersey barriers were installed to keep the three-mile long access road to the bridge open. On February 16, police intercepted a convoy of six or seven trucks away from Windsor — heading towards the city after leaving Ottawa. Participants and response Groups In the lead-up to the planned arrival in Ottawa, it was reported on January 25 that far-right and white supremacist groups were hoping for violence on Parliament Hill akin to the 2021 United States Capitol attack. This has caused organizer Tamara Lich to address convoy members and denounce political violence, saying that protesters should "hold a peaceful protest" instead. Organizers and leaders of the convoy condemned extremist groups, and asked that participants report lawbreakers to the police. They also stated that any extremists found would be "removed" from the convoy. Despite this, some protesters were photographed waving Nazi flags at the rally. The Globe and Mail noted that "signs comparing vaccine mandates to the persecution of Jewish people by the Nazis remained" until the clearance. On January 28, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau expressed concern that a small group of protesters are going to be posing a threat during the weekend. One of the lead organizers of the convoy, James Bauder, has previously stated support for QAnon, endorsed conspiracy theories about the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020 U.S. presidential election, and called for the arrest of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for alleged treason. On February 3, 2022, Romana Didulo arrived in Ottawa with supporters. Didulo calls herself the "Queen of Canada" and is a conspiracy theorist linked to QAnon. In November 2021, she called on her 73,000 Telegram followers to shoot healthcare workers. An episode of The Faulkner Focus, hosted by Harris Faulkner, was criticized by The Daily Beast in February 2022 for trying to normalize the protests and anti-vaccine sentiment. The episode said that the protesters were not a fringe minority, but represented the mainstream of society and had international support. The montage of protesters she showed prominently displayed imagery relating to QAnon. The Facebook page for the convoy has shared content from, and listed as an organizer, the Wexit co-founder and Yellow Vest Canada organizer Patrick "Pat" King, who has previously hosted counter-protests to anti-racism rallies, spread COVID-19 misinformation, and spread the Great Replacement conspiracy theory. In December 2021, while talking about COVID-19 public health measures, King said "The only way this is going to be solved is with bullets." On February 8, King falsely claimed that "50% of the Ottawa police force have all turned in their resignation today". Tamara Lich, the protest's fundraiser, is Secretary for the Maverick Party, a Western Canadian separatist group formerly known as Wexit Canada. Lich was previously the regional co-ordinator for Wexit in southeastern Alberta and a board member for Wexit Alberta. The Maverick Party denied involvement with the convoy on January 24. Action 4 Canada, which is associated with the Canada Unity group inside the Freedom Convoy, has been called an Islamophobic and anti-LGBTQ hate and conspiracy group; it hosts webpages about the dangers of political Islam, health consequences of 5G technology, and the alleged underreporting by the mainstream media of adverse reactions to the vaccine. Action 4 Canada appears to have been founded by Tanya Gaw, who actively supported the Yellow Vests protests of 2019. Jason LaFace, Canada Unity's Ontario organizer and official representative to the Freedom Convoy, is also a main organizer for No More Lockdowns Canada, an anti-lockdown and anti-vaccine mandate organization primarily associated with expelled Ontario MPP Randy Hillier. No More Lockdowns Canada holds anti-lockdown rallies across Ontario. Benjamin Dichter, who is listed as an organizer on the Freedom Convoy's GoFundMe page, was a speaker at the inaugural 2019 People's Party of Canada national convention, and has claimed political Islam has infiltrated the Conservative Party of Canada and is "rotting away at our society like syphilis". Convoy leader Dave Steenburg has posted material by Soldiers of Odin, a neo-Nazi vigilante group, on his Facebook page; Jason LaFace, an administrator of the Convoy Facebook page, has done the same thing. LaFace has also posted a photo of himself wearing a Soldiers of Odin jacket. Following the seizure of weapons, ammunition and body armour at the blockade in Coutts, one piece of body armour was identified to have patches signifying relation to accelerationist right-wing militia Diagolon. Counter-protesters Counter-protests in favour of public health measures were held throughout the convoy's duration. In Ottawa, with protestors in the parliament area spilling into residential neighbourhoods, lawsuits and injunction requests were filed by residents. Counter-protests were held in several cities on February 5. Counter-protestors forced a convoy of vehicles to split up in Vancouver. Some 200 people gathered in front of Ottawa City Hall to demand the end of disruptions caused by trucks downtown. People held pro-vaccination signs in Whitehorse while anti-mandate protestors passed them in vehicles. A counter-protest organized by health care workers was planned in Toronto for February 12, but was called off when the provincial government instituted a state of emergency. In counter-protests on February 12, thousands of people joined the "Community Solidarity March" through Ottawa to demand the end of the protests. On February 13, a group of Ottawa residents blocked the intersection of Riverside Drive and Bank Street to prevent a newly-arrived contingent of vehicles from joining the main protest. The original group of 20 grew to more than 1,000 people and successfully kettled the eastern artery of the "Blue Collar Convoy" for eight hours and were joined by groups in other neighbourhoods. The convoy vehicles left one at a time under a heavy police escort after the vehicle owners took down their signs and flags. Throughout, various individuals gained public note for their counter-protesting. The protestors' Zello push-to-talk-style voice channels have been the subject of coordinated disruption from counter-protestors, including users playing the homoerotic country rock song Ram Ranch to "troll" participants and listeners. Counter-protesters started the hashtag #RamRanchResistance. Law enforcement response Ottawa Police Service response Ottawa Police Service faced criticism for how it responded to the convoy during the first three weeks, culminating with the resignation of Chief Peter Sloly. At a January 31 press conference, Ottawa Police Service (OPS) Chief Peter Sloly described the demonstration as "unique in nature, massive in scale, polarizing in context and dangerous in literally every other aspect of the event itself". He said that starting on January 28 there was a "traffic gridlock" which turned into "traffic chaos" over the next two days as "thousands of vehicles, particularly heavy trucks" arrived in Ottawa. Security forces included police forces from the federal, provincial and municipal levels: the RCMP, Ontario Provincial Police (OPP), Gatineau Police, Sûreté du Québec, London Police Service, Hamilton Police Service, Peel Regional Police, Toronto Police Service, York Regional Police, and Durham Regional Police who worked with the OPS Incident Command System. OPS Chief Sloly advised people to avoid downtown Ottawa during the weekend protest, adding that "we are prepared to investigate, arrest if necessary, charge and prosecute anyone who acts violently or breaks the law in the demonstrations, or in association with the demonstrations". Chief Sloly said that since the scaling down of the demonstration on January 31, the crime prevention teams normally directly providing support in around the core, but who were deployed elsewhere during the height of the protests, have returned to their neighbourhoods. By January 31, with the cost of police service per day estimated at CA$800,000 a day, the Mayor of Ottawa was considering legal action to cover costs. Patrick McDonell, the Sergeant-at-Arms of the House of Commons and Director General of Parliamentary Protective Service (PPS) warned Members of Parliament about possible doxing attempts to discover the addresses of their residences in the Capital Region. The letter further warned MPs not to get involved in any demonstrations, to "go somewhere safe", and to keep all doors locked. McDonell told reporters that Canada has never been so divided—the thousands of people arriving on Parliament Hill in the trucker convoy represents a "symbol of the fatigue" that Canadians are experiencing after two years of COVID. PPS prepared for approximately 10,000 protesters; Wellington Street, which is in front of Parliament Hill was closed to most traffic; some lanes had been "designated specifically" for truckers; and others for emergency vehicles. On January 29, the first day of protest at Parliament Hill, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was "moved to an undisclosed location due to security concerns". The OPS had called in reinforcements from the RCMP and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS)Canada's main intelligence serviceand were working to identify threats in the convoy. Intelligence reports by the Integrated Terrorism Assessment Centre (ITAC), which is part of CSIS, said that some convoy supporters "advocated civil war", had "called for violence against prime minister Justin Trudeau, and said the protest should be 'used as Canada's 'January 6'". The ITAC reports, which were seen by The Guardian, warned in late January that that "extremists" were "likely involved" and the "potential for violence remained real". The February 8 ITAC report raised concerns that the "online rhetoric" was "violent", and that there were "ideological extremists" who were "physically present" at "some gatherings". As protesters headed to Ottawa on January 28, the OPP tweeted "OPP advises motorists to avoid travel on Highway 417 and Highway 416 in the Ottawa area, beginning Friday afternoon and on Saturday." They asked that emergency vehicle access be assured throughout. An article in The New York Times described the Ottawa Police Service as "vastly outnumbered", and "unprepared for the sophisticated tactics, discipline and logistical abilities of the protesters". The Ottawa Police Service has 1,500 officers to serve the million residents of the city of Ottawa. During the three weeks of the protest and occupation, only 150 officers were on the streets in "three of the most affected neighbourhoods over the course of a day". Chief Sloly requested an additional 1,800 early on, but by February 13, they had not arrived. Police experts said that Sloly, who has been criticized for his response to the protests, had a legitimate problem of "lack of resources...given the unprecedented situation facing Ottawa." Some officers were "swarmed" while attempting to make an arrest. On the first weekend, crowds were estimated at 8,000 to 18,000. On weekdays the number of protesters declined somewhat. On the second weekend, with 500 heavy trucks and 7,000 demonstrators in the downtown core "red zone" as of Saturday evening, Sloly reported to an emergency meeting Ottawa Police Services board meeting, that even with all OPS officers on active duty and the hundreds of law-enforcement officials who came to help, he did not have the resources to end what he called the "turbulent protests". On the third weekend of February 11 and 12, there were about 4,000 or 5,000 protesters and partyers in the city's core, on Parliament Hill. Even after a state of emergency was declared by the mayor, officers were outnumbered and unable to enforce injunctions or regulations. The Times said that many analysts have cautioned that some convoy's leaders with military or policing backgrounds helped demonstrators strategize and plan under the guidance of people like Tom Quiggin, "proclaimed head of protective intelligence", who had formerly served as an "intelligence officer for the Canadian military, cabinet office and federal police." and has been described as "one of the country's top counter-terrorism experts." By February 10, Chief Sloly said 250 RCMP officers were sworn in and deployed to reinforce the 1,500 OPS officers. The response of local police forces to these blockades has erred on the side of caution, with police at each site initially trying to negotiate with the protesters. Integrated Command Centre (ICC) response Plans for the creation of the new Integrated Command Centre (ICC) were in place by February 12. The ICC was created to help Ottawa Police Services (OPS) coordinate with Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and RCMP when the anticipated reinforcements would arrive. As an estimated 4,000 protesters converged on Parliament Hill on February 12, the extra reinforcements requested by Chief Sloly a week earlier had not yet arrived. Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair said on February 13, that they are in constant contact with provincial and municipal authorities. Because the situation is "critical" for Canada with the "closing of our borders, the targeting on critical infrastructure, particularly our points of entry by the people behind these protests", it poses a "significant national security threat" to Canada, and we have to "end it". On Day 19 of the protests, with Ottawa under three states of emergency invoked by the three levels of government, Chief Sloly resigned. At the February 15 Ottawa Police Board meeting, Deputy Chief Steve Bell, who was appointed Interim Chief of Police, told the board that the OPS force had not "yet received the 1,800 extra officers requested". At the height of the protests there were about 8,000 protesters. Overnight on February 14 there were "less than 150 people in the blockade" and approximately 360 vehicles still on the streets, in contrast to the estimated 4,000 vehicles at the end of January. The OPS had made a total of "33 arrests and charged 18 people" in the 19 day period. Canadian Police Association president, Tom Stamatakis, cautioned that with Sloly's resignation, politicians "should not "scapegoat him for other failures that have allowed this occupation to drag on." On February 18, Day 22, hundreds of OPS, York, Toronto, Gatineau, Durham Region, London, Hamilton forces, the Sureté du Québec, the OPP, and the RCMP, worked on a coordinated police action in and around Parliament Hill. By late February 18 morning, CTV News and other mainstream media reporting in the red zone, showed police steadily, very slowly sandwiching groups of dozens of the remaining protesters on all sides on separate streets. There were reports of a flank of police on horseback behind those in the front lines. Families with children were seen in these final groups of protesters with police reporting that protesters were "putting children between their operations and the protest site." The police assured that "children will be brought to a place of safety." In a CBC interview with Charles Bordeleau, former OPS chief, he said he had never seen children used before in other protests. He said that the CAS did not have to step in. Pat King was arrested near noon. King is described as the final of three major online influencers continuing the protest to be arrested. He was later charged of mischief, counselling to commit the offence of mischief, counselling to commit the offence of disobey court order (s.127), and counselling to commit the offence of obstruct police. By early afternoon, tactical officers began slowly entering the cabins of large rigs that had been parked in front of Parliament since the end of January. Two large campers placed by protesters to prevent large trucks blocking Sussex from moving were finally cleared early in the afternoon with the arrest of a protester in the motor home by five officers wearing full security gear. Police allowed mainstream media close access to the frontlines of the tactical method. In the afternoon, as some of the remaining protesters accepted the inevitable, they began to clear 30 cm of snow from their trucks and trailers in preparation for their departure. Frustrated protesters interviewed by CBC and CTV who were earlier calling "Hold the line", asked for their "voice to be heard". The last few protesters said without evidence, that the protest was legal, citing, but misunderstanding Canadian law. CBC News on the front lines reported protesters in the red zone, who could leave but choose to stay and be arrested. There were 70 arrests and 21 vehicles were removed by mid-afternoon. CBC's senior defence writer, Murray Brewster, described the police operation as professional, methodical, and tactical. Police did not prevent truckers or individual protesters from driving or walking away for most of the day. They may face charges later. Police used a minimal amount of force even late in the afternoon as members of different forces began "squeezing" the group of protesters "even tighter" on Wellington Street in front of Parliament. They were not wearing shields or using pepper spray or tear gas, as they wanted protesters to leave, as opposed to arresting them, according to Bordeleau. As waiting long lines tow trucks, brought in by the police, replaced the heavy rigs that had been grid-locking Ottawa downtown, some of tow truck company names were hidden. CBC reported that tow truck companies who had previously refused to tow protesters' vehicles, have been forced through the Emergencies Act to comply with orders. Bordeleau also said that the Emergencies Act had allowed police to set up 100 checkpoints around the city of Ottawa to prevent protester back-filling and to prevent pop-up protests. In response to those who contrasted the February 18 coordinated successful response to the OPS inaction in previous weeks, Carol Anne Meehan, an Ottawa City Councillor, said that the OPS had been severely under-resourced until the Emergencies Act was invoked. On February 19, police began with a "hard, fast push" towards to the encampment at Parliament Hill. Due to the resistance of protesters, police wore helmets and batons for protection. At one point, a smoke device was released by protesters. By early afternoon, more than 140 people had been arrested and dozens of vehicles had been seized. During the question period of the OPS press conference, Chief Bell confirmed that security forces have been gathering intelligence using videos, and that they will be actively pursuing people who have been filmed. The police will actively follow up with identifications, collect evidence, seek criminal charges with sanctions can include the financial level and licensing level. Clearance As of February 10, there was general agreement by government and police that vigorous efforts to clear the blockades were dangerous, possibly leading to expanded or violent reactions. A variety of options were legally possible and some, such as issuing tickets, were employed. Tow-truck drivers in several locations declined to tow trucks. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, on February 3, declared his reluctance to employ the military to clear the protesters, saying he had received no formal request for military assistance and added, "One has to be very, very cautious before deploying military in situations engaging Canadians," saying it's not something to "enter into lightly". On February 11, the court injunction to clear protesters from the Ambassador Bridge, secured by the City of Windsor, went into effect at 7 pm. Prime Minister Trudeau and United States President Joe Biden met virtually to discuss the dissolution of cross-border blockades. Ontario Premier Doug Ford declared a state of emergency in the province. Heavy fines of up to $100,000 and up to a year of imprisonment were introduced for offences such as blocking or impeding the movement of goods, people, and services along critical roads and bridges in the province, including "international border crossings, 400-series highways, airports, ports, bridges and railways". Penalties include revoking personal and commercial drivers' licences. On February 17, police massed at a staging area in Ottawa. A 12 foot-high fence was constructed around the Parliament building and over 100 checkpoints limited access to the protest area. OC Transpo transit stations in the downtown were also closed. Convoy organizers Chris Barber and Tamara Lich were arrested in separate instances, and Lich stated that her personal bank account had been frozen. Several other people were arrested after ignoring multiple orders to leave the area. Pat King, another convoy organizer, was arrested by police on February 18. That same day, police made at least 70 arrests and towed 21 vehicles by mid-afternoon. The police operation consisted of an initial wave of horse-mounted police officers, and other officers on foot wearing high-visibility jackets, followed by tactical teams in green-camouflage gear, and then officers in light armoured vehicles and on horseback bringing up the rear. In at least one case, officers broke the a truck's window to reach its occupant, who refused to exit their vehicle. Police also removed children from the site, citing a fear for their safety during the operation. A protester was arrested and charged for allegedly throwing a bicycle and hitting the legs of a horse from the Toronto Police Service Mounted Unit at about 5:30. In the ensuing skirmish, some pepper spray was used. Ottawa Police reported that several officers and horses had been assaulted by demonstrators while attempting to clear the red zone, and over 100 people had been arrested by the evening of February 18. In the afternoon of February 19, police were present in force and were mopping up the area. By late afternoon, the last large group of protesters was corralled near the corner of Bank and Sparks Streets, with police holding a line for several hours as the crowd swelled to approximately 1,000 by dusk and a street party (with an impromptu DJ) ensued. After nightfall, the line of police unexpectedly advanced on the celebratory crowd, pushing it a block south to Queen Street, spraying pepper gas as they did so. Fencing was erected afterwards, and the crowd gradually dispersed over the course of the night. In total, 170 people had been arrested and a few dozen trucks towed. Protest leaders advised leaving the area and were asking for permission to do so. Pepper gas had been used; one police officer suffered a minor injury. Municipal response Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson described the situation as "the most serious emergency our city has ever faced". Provincial response On February 11, Ontario Premier Doug Ford declared a state of emergency in the province. On February 23 at 5:00 p.m., Ontario ended the state of emergency. On the same day, Ontario Superior Court granted an injunction to remove protesters from the Ambassador Bridge. The injunction was sought by multiple industry groups affected by the blockade including the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association. Federal response Emergencies Act On February 14, Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act. The Act gave police extraordinary powers to "end border blockades and the occupation of downtown Ottawa by so-called “Freedom Convoy” protesters." Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said that under the Act, protesters' "trucks can be seized, their corporate accounts frozen and vehicle insurance suspended". While Trudeau insisted that the military would not be deployed, Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair did not rule out deployment, and called the lack of enforcement by Ottawa Police "inexplicable". The Emergencies Act replaced the former War Measures Act, which was famously invoked by Trudeau's father, former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, to deploy the Canadian Forces against a violent separatist group during the 1970 October Crisis. This was the first time the act had been invoked since its 1988 inception. The Canadian Civil Liberties Association criticized the invocation of the Act in a press release, saying, "The federal government has not met the threshold necessary to invoke the Emergencies Act. This law creates a high and clear standard for good reason: the Act allows government to bypass ordinary democratic processes. This standard has not been met." In the same press release, the CCLA stated that the normalization of emergency legislation, "threatens our democracy and our civil liberties." On February 17, the CCLA announced it was suing the federal government over the Act's invocation, stating that the Emergencies Act must be reserved for national emergencies, which they argued was a "legal standard that has not been met." After the invocation of the Act, Chrystia Freeland, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance announced that the purview of the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada was expanded to include the monitoring of funds sent through crowdfunding platforms such as GoFundMe, where protestors had raised millions that were ultimately refunded, as well as payment providers formerly outside its scope. Freeland specifically cited cryptocurrency transactions, which the protestors turned to after GoFundMe, as a type of digital transaction that the new measures were meant to cover. Canadian banks were also temporarily given the authority to freeze accounts suspected of being used to support the protests without the need to obtain court orders, were granted legal immunity if they chose to do so, and were allowed to more freely share information with law enforcement and government agencies. On February 21, the House of Commons voted to confirm the Emergencies Act, with 185 for and 151 opposing the motion. On February 23, Trudeau told a press conference that he would lift the Emergencies Act at 5:00 p.m. He warned that any violations of law during the emergency would be investigated. Events elsewhere Other border crossing obstructions British Columbia–Washington Beginning February 5, protesters attempted to blockade the Pacific Highway Border Crossing between Blaine, Washington and Surrey, British Columbia. Protesters returned on February 12, where a police barricade was set up. A convoy led by a privately owned vehicle painted in military style broke through the police barricades, and the border crossing was subsequently closed. Surrey RCMP moved into the area to clear it on February 13, making 12 arrests. On February 15, the border crossing reopened. Manitoba–North Dakota Beginning February 10, a blockade closed off the Pembina–Emerson Border Crossing in Emerson, Manitoba. Through RCMP negotiating, protesters voluntarily left the blockade on February 16 and the border crossing was reopened. The blockage at Emerson, Manitoba border crossing was cleared February 15, 2022. Other Canadian protests Toronto On February 4, 2022, some vehicles and tractors arrived outside the Royal Ontario Museum on Avenue Road north of Queen's Park in Toronto. Also on February 4, Toronto Police started closing roads in the downtown in anticipation of a large protest and told residents to expect a larger police presence during the weekend. On February 5, truckers, tractor drivers, and protesters arrived in Queen's Park to protest COVID-19 vaccine mandates. In response, a group of healthcare workers staged a counter-protest. Protest activity later moved north to Bloor Street and later to the intersection of Bloor Street West and Avenue Road. Hundreds of protesters and several trucks blocked the intersection for hours. Long stretches of major arterial roads, including University Avenue, College Street, and Yonge Street, were shut down. Fearing possible threats against healthcare workers, University Health Network and Sinai Health System, which operate major hospitals in the protest area, warned their employees to avoid wearing any clothing or badges that would identify them as health-care workers outside hospital premises. During the protest, a 22-year-old man was arrested and charged with assault with a weapon, use of a smoke bomb (administering a noxious substance), and public mischief. A second man was arrested for assault with a weapon after throwing feces at another person. Winnipeg On February 5, at a related protest in downtown Winnipeg, four people were injured in a ramming incident. One was hospitalized and later released. As of February 7, protests were on their fourth day. Police have yet to write tickets or lay charges against protesters, despite numerous noise complaints, fireworks without permit, and incidents of "homophobia, racism, and gender-based harassment." Fredericton A protest targeting the New Brunswick Legislature in Fredericton began on Friday, February 11. Fredericton Police established checkpoints leading into the city's downtown, and refused entry to any large truck without a valid manifest. A group of about 300 protesters gathered at the New Brunswick Legislative Building, growing to a peak of 700 by Saturday. By Sunday afternoon, police reported that about 70 protesters remained in the city, and that there had been three arrests related to the protest, and numerous tickets issued for traffic and city bylaw infractions. Nova Scotia On January 30, the Government of Nova Scotia made it illegal for people to gather on Highway 104 along the border with New Brunswick in anticipation of protesters blockading the highway. On February 6, hundreds of vehicles drove through Halifax as part of the "Freedom Convoy". On February 12, hundreds of people from around Nova Scotia travelled to Halifax to protest. The Halifax Regional Police blocked off access to some roads in downtown Halifax in response to the protest. Edmonton Protestors gathered in Edmonton for three consecutive Saturdays, and an Alberta Court of Queen's Bench Justice granted an interim injunction on February 11, 2022, prohibiting protest participants from causing incessant sound with horns and megaphones within city limits. Edmonton Police Service (EPS) was criticized by City Councilor Michael Janz for taking stronger enforcement measures against a counter protest than it did with the main protest. According to EPS, the responses varied as they tried to protect public and officer safety, and keep traffic moving. Other Truckers and protesters have gathered in Oakville, Mississauga, Vaughan, other parts of the Greater Toronto Area, Orangeville, Quebec City, Calgary, Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Kelowna, Regina, and Victoria. A convoy in Charlottetown attracted hundreds of protesters on February 12, mostly driving personal vehicles and farm equipment. International protests The Freedom Convoy also inspired several Facebook and Telegram groups organizing similar protests in 34 countries including Argentina, Austria, Cyprus, New Zealand, Australia and the United States. As is the case in Canada, demonstrations were partly supported by local far-right groups; in Finland by members of neo-fascist Blue-and-Black Movement, Soldiers of Odin and Power Belongs to the People, and in Germany by the Reichsbürger movement and Alternative for Germany. In February 2022, a solidarity protest was organized in the United Kingdom with a convoy driving from Scotland to London with stops in cities throughout the British isles. Other convoys were reported in Wales and parts of England. Officials in Paris and Brussels banned protests relating to the Freedom Convoy, following information from organizers of a similar event opposed to France's Health Pass, le Convoi de la Liberté, that five convoys from across France were due to reach Paris between February 11 and 14. French Police used tear gas to disperse protesters, in addition to intercepting hundreds of vehicles and issuing hundreds of fines to those participating in the convoy. On February 23, a group of American truckers began a solidarity protest convoy from California to Washington, D.C. called the "People's Convoy". In response, The Pentagon approved the deployment of 700 unarmed National Guard troops to D.C. Results and aftermath Economic loss and costs On February 15, there were reports that the blockage of the Ambassador Bridge could result in and costs to the automobile industry representing approximately US$1.2 billion in the economies of both the United States and Canada. The Director of the University of Waterloo's Cross Border Institute stated to CBC News that the economic loss from the Ambassador Bridge blockade was between $3 billion – $6 billion. Every day, vehicles and auto parts valued at approximately US$141.1 million flow across the Bridge. Major auto manufacturers were forced to pause production; "automakers and their suppliers" were having to "scramble to get parts to plants on time" for the current week's run. A previous estimate by BBC on February 12 said that the estimated total cost to the automobile industry was about US$600 million (c. CA$763 million). Experts say that the economic effects will be "felt by the auto industry and others for weeks". The demand for vehicles is strong even with prices at record highs, but dealers' lots remain empty. Reuters reported citing IHS Markit's data that the "estimated loss" by February 14 "to the auto industry alone could be as high as $850 million." Twenty five per cent of the value of "all U.S.-Canada goods trade" pass over the Ambassador Bridge dailyapproximaltely $360 million in both directions a day. During the first week alone, businesses in the downtown Ottawa, including the city's busiest and largest shopping mall, the Rideau Centre, lost nearly CA$20 million in the first week alone, according to the Retail Council of Canada. In Ottawa Canadian economist, Armine Yalnizyan estimated losses such as workers' wagesCA$11 million a day for a total of CA$264 millionas well as other costs that Canadian taxpayers would have to pay for damages caused by the "Ottawa occupation". The estimated loss of sales at the Rideau CentreCA$3 million a day according to the Retail Council of Canadaamounts to a total of CA$72 million for one shopping mall alone. Over 50 per cent of the 235 businesses in the area that was blockaded lost revenue. Taxpayers will pay for the CA$300 a week for those workers who are eligible for the Canada Worker Lockdown Benefit. They will also pay for the CA$20 million the federal government will provide to local businesses who lost revenues. The CA$2.5 million for Ottawa LRT free public transit will be paid by taxpayers as will the millions of dollars for extra police reinforcements. Yalnizyan also noted the "incalculable damage" to Canada's international reputation as a trade partner which could have a negative impact on supply chains and "political discourse." She did not include the cost to those who lived in the neighbourhoods most impacted, who could not leave their homes and in some cases were "unable to sleep or access clean air or, at times, even food." As well, other communities and neighbourhoods had to live with a reduced police force and therefore reduced safety, as officers were seconded to the Ottawa's downtown core. In Ottawa, Ottawa Police Service (OPS) initially claimed that every day protests were ongoing was costing CA$800,000. Consistent with earlier estimates, Ottawa Police Services Board announced on February 15 that the cost was around CA$785,000 per day, resulting in a estimated CA$14.1 million over the course of 18 days. According to Mayor Watson, the Chief of Police's request for 1,800 additional officers could increase the cost to CA$2.5 million daily. In comparison, by February 8, the cost of the truck convoy had already eclipsed the CA$620,000 in average policing costs for Ottawa's annual Canada Day celebrations. In addition to policing costs, by February 7, the convoy cost an additional CA$1 million in other city services. The closure began January 29, with the mall reopening on February 22. An imitation firearm in the mall resulted in a police-led evacuation, multiple hour closure, and closure of the O-Train at nearby stations. Based on a class-action lawsuit against organizers, lawyer Paul Champ estimated that lost wages and revenue in the downtown core totalled at least $CA306 million. Efforts to fundraise for affected charities includes one called "Make Ottawa Boring Again." Alberta–Montana According to a February 3 CTV News report, the economic loss of the Sweetgrass–Coutts Border Crossing border crossing closure was estimated at CA$220 million. Canadian Manufacturers | Ottawa." Some officers were "swarmed" while attempting to make an arrest. On the first weekend, crowds were estimated at 8,000 to 18,000. On weekdays the number of protesters declined somewhat. On the second weekend, with 500 heavy trucks and 7,000 demonstrators in the downtown core "red zone" as of Saturday evening, Sloly reported to an emergency meeting Ottawa Police Services board meeting, that even with all OPS officers on active duty and the hundreds of law-enforcement officials who came to help, he did not have the resources to end what he called the "turbulent protests". On the third weekend of February 11 and 12, there were about 4,000 or 5,000 protesters and partyers in the city's core, on Parliament Hill. Even after a state of emergency was declared by the mayor, officers were outnumbered and unable to enforce injunctions or regulations. The Times said that many analysts have cautioned that some convoy's leaders with military or policing backgrounds helped demonstrators strategize and plan under the guidance of people like Tom Quiggin, "proclaimed head of protective intelligence", who had formerly served as an "intelligence officer for the Canadian military, cabinet office and federal police." and has been described as "one of the country's top counter-terrorism experts." By February 10, Chief Sloly said 250 RCMP officers were sworn in and deployed to reinforce the 1,500 OPS officers. The response of local police forces to these blockades has erred on the side of caution, with police at each site initially trying to negotiate with the protesters. Integrated Command Centre (ICC) response Plans for the creation of the new Integrated Command Centre (ICC) were in place by February 12. The ICC was created to help Ottawa Police Services (OPS) coordinate with Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and RCMP when the anticipated reinforcements would arrive. As an estimated 4,000 protesters converged on Parliament Hill on February 12, the extra reinforcements requested by Chief Sloly a week earlier had not yet arrived. Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair said on February 13, that they are in constant contact with provincial and municipal authorities. Because the situation is "critical" for Canada with the "closing of our borders, the targeting on critical infrastructure, particularly our points of entry by the people behind these protests", it poses a "significant national security threat" to Canada, and we have to "end it". On Day 19 of the protests, with Ottawa under three states of emergency invoked by the three levels of government, Chief Sloly resigned. At the February 15 Ottawa Police Board meeting, Deputy Chief Steve Bell, who was appointed Interim Chief of Police, told the board that the OPS force had not "yet received the 1,800 extra officers requested". At the height of the protests there were about 8,000 protesters. Overnight on February 14 there were "less than 150 people in the blockade" and approximately 360 vehicles still on the streets, in contrast to the estimated 4,000 vehicles at the end of January. The OPS had made a total of "33 arrests and charged 18 people" in the 19 day period. Canadian Police Association president, Tom Stamatakis, cautioned that with Sloly's resignation, politicians "should not "scapegoat him for other failures that have allowed this occupation to drag on." On February 18, Day 22, hundreds of OPS, York, Toronto, Gatineau, Durham Region, London, Hamilton forces, the Sureté du Québec, the OPP, and the RCMP, worked on a coordinated police action in and around Parliament Hill. By late February 18 morning, CTV News and other mainstream media reporting in the red zone, showed police steadily, very slowly sandwiching groups of dozens of the remaining protesters on all sides on separate streets. There were reports of a flank of police on horseback behind those in the front lines. Families with children were seen in these final groups of protesters with police reporting that protesters were "putting children between their operations and the protest site." The police assured that "children will be brought to a place of safety." In a CBC interview with Charles Bordeleau, former OPS chief, he said he had never seen children used before in other protests. He said that the CAS did not have to step in. Pat King was arrested near noon. King is described as the final of three major online influencers continuing the protest to be arrested. He was later charged of mischief, counselling to commit the offence of mischief, counselling to commit the offence of disobey court order (s.127), and counselling to commit the offence of obstruct police. By early afternoon, tactical officers began slowly entering the cabins of large rigs that had been parked in front of Parliament since the end of January. Two large campers placed by protesters to prevent large trucks blocking Sussex from moving were finally cleared early in the afternoon with the arrest of a protester in the motor home by five officers wearing full security gear. Police allowed mainstream media close access to the frontlines of the tactical method. In the afternoon, as some of the remaining protesters accepted the inevitable, they began to clear 30 cm of snow from their trucks and trailers in preparation for their departure. Frustrated protesters interviewed by CBC and CTV who were earlier calling "Hold the line", asked for their "voice to be heard". The last few protesters said without evidence, that the protest was legal, citing, but misunderstanding Canadian law. CBC News on the front lines reported protesters in the red zone, who could leave but choose to stay and be arrested. There were 70 arrests and 21 vehicles were removed by mid-afternoon.

Heavy fines of up to $100,000 and up to a year of imprisonment were introduced for offences such as blocking or impeding the movement of goods, people, and services along critical roads and bridges in the province, including "international border crossings, 400-series highways, airports, ports, bridges and railways". Penalties include revoking personal and commercial drivers' licences. On February 17, police massed at a staging area in Ottawa. A 12 foot-high fence was constructed around the Parliament building and over 100 checkpoints limited access to the protest area. OC Transpo transit stations in the downtown were also closed.

By Sunday afternoon, police reported that about 70 protesters remained in the city, and that there had been three arrests related to the protest, and numerous tickets issued for traffic and city bylaw infractions. Nova Scotia On January 30, the Government of Nova Scotia made it illegal for people to gather on Highway 104 along the border with New Brunswick in anticipation of protesters blockading the highway. On February 6, hundreds of vehicles drove through Halifax as part of the "Freedom Convoy". On February 12, hundreds of people from around Nova Scotia travelled to Halifax to protest. The Halifax Regional Police blocked off access to some roads in downtown Halifax in response to the protest. Edmonton Protestors gathered in Edmonton for three consecutive Saturdays, and an Alberta Court of Queen's Bench Justice granted an interim injunction on February 11, 2022, prohibiting protest participants from causing incessant sound with horns and megaphones within city limits. Edmonton Police Service (EPS) was criticized by City Councilor Michael Janz for taking stronger enforcement measures against a counter protest than it did with the main protest. According to EPS, the responses varied as they tried to protect public and officer safety, and keep traffic moving. Other Truckers and protesters have gathered in Oakville, Mississauga, Vaughan, other parts of the Greater Toronto Area, Orangeville, Quebec City, Calgary, Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Kelowna, Regina, and Victoria. A convoy in Charlottetown attracted hundreds of protesters on February 12, mostly driving personal vehicles and farm equipment. International protests The Freedom Convoy also inspired several Facebook and Telegram groups organizing similar protests in 34 countries including Argentina, Austria, Cyprus, New Zealand, Australia and the United States. As is the case in Canada, demonstrations were partly supported by local far-right groups; in Finland by members of neo-fascist Blue-and-Black Movement, Soldiers of Odin and Power Belongs to the People, and in Germany by the Reichsbürger movement and Alternative for Germany. In February 2022, a solidarity protest was organized in the United Kingdom with a convoy driving from Scotland to London with stops in cities throughout the British isles. Other convoys were reported in Wales and parts of England. Officials in Paris and Brussels banned protests relating to the Freedom Convoy, following information from organizers of a similar event opposed to France's Health Pass, le Convoi de la Liberté, that five convoys from across France were due to reach Paris between February 11 and 14. French Police used tear gas to disperse protesters, in addition to intercepting hundreds of vehicles and issuing hundreds of fines to those participating in the convoy. On February 23, a group of American truckers began a solidarity protest convoy from California to Washington, D.C. called the "People's Convoy". In response, The Pentagon approved the deployment of 700 unarmed National Guard troops to D.C. Results and aftermath Economic loss and costs On February 15, there were reports that the blockage of the Ambassador Bridge could result in and costs to the automobile industry representing approximately US$1.2 billion in the economies of both the United States and Canada. The Director of the University of Waterloo's Cross Border Institute stated to CBC News that the economic loss from the Ambassador Bridge blockade was between $3 billion – $6 billion. Every day, vehicles and auto parts valued at approximately US$141.1 million flow across the Bridge. Major auto manufacturers were forced to pause production; "automakers and their suppliers" were having to "scramble to get parts to plants on time" for the current week's run. A previous estimate by BBC on February 12 said that the estimated total cost to the automobile industry was about US$600 million (c. CA$763 million). Experts say that the economic effects will be "felt by the auto industry and others for weeks". The demand for vehicles is strong even with prices at record highs, but dealers' lots remain empty. Reuters reported citing IHS Markit's data that the "estimated loss" by February 14 "to the auto industry alone could be as high as $850 million." Twenty five per cent of the value of "all U.S.-Canada goods trade" pass over the Ambassador Bridge dailyapproximaltely $360 million in both directions a day. During the first week alone, businesses in the downtown Ottawa, including the city's busiest and largest shopping mall, the Rideau Centre, lost nearly CA$20 million in the first week alone, according to the Retail Council of Canada. In Ottawa Canadian economist, Armine Yalnizyan estimated losses such as workers' wagesCA$11 million a day for a total of CA$264 millionas well as other costs that Canadian taxpayers would have to pay for damages caused by the "Ottawa occupation". The estimated loss of sales at the Rideau CentreCA$3 million a day according to the Retail Council of Canadaamounts to a total of CA$72 million for one shopping mall alone. Over 50 per cent of the 235 businesses in the area that was blockaded lost revenue. Taxpayers will pay for the CA$300 a week for those workers who are eligible for the Canada Worker Lockdown Benefit. They will also pay for the CA$20 million the federal government will provide to local businesses who lost revenues. The CA$2.5 million for Ottawa LRT free public transit will be paid by taxpayers as will the millions of dollars for extra police reinforcements. Yalnizyan also noted the "incalculable damage" to Canada's international reputation as a trade partner which could have a negative impact on supply chains and "political discourse." She did not include the cost to those who lived in the neighbourhoods most impacted, who could not leave their homes and in some cases were "unable to sleep or access clean air or, at times, even food." As well, other communities and neighbourhoods had to live with a reduced police force and therefore reduced safety, as officers were seconded to the Ottawa's downtown core. In Ottawa, Ottawa Police Service (OPS) initially claimed that every day protests were ongoing was costing CA$800,000. Consistent with earlier estimates, Ottawa Police Services Board announced on February 15 that the cost was around CA$785,000 per day, resulting in a estimated CA$14.1 million over the course of 18 days. According to Mayor Watson, the Chief of Police's request for 1,800 additional officers could increase the cost to CA$2.5 million daily. In comparison, by February 8, the cost of the truck convoy had already eclipsed the CA$620,000 in average policing costs for Ottawa's annual Canada Day celebrations. In addition to policing costs, by February 7, the convoy cost an additional CA$1 million in other city services. The closure began January 29, with the mall reopening on February 22. An imitation firearm in the mall resulted in a police-led evacuation, multiple hour closure, and closure of the O-Train at nearby stations. Based on a class-action lawsuit against organizers, lawyer Paul Champ estimated that lost wages and revenue in the downtown core totalled at least $CA306 million. Efforts to fundraise for affected charities includes one called "Make Ottawa Boring Again." Alberta–Montana According to a February 3 CTV News report, the economic loss of the Sweetgrass–Coutts Border Crossing border crossing closure was estimated at CA$220 million. Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters estimated on February 3, that CA$44 million in daily cross-border trade was affected by the blockade at the border crossing that averages CA$15.9 billion annually in two-way trade. Alberta RCMP tried to negotiate with the protesters blocking access to the Coutts border crossing. Police attempted to clear the blockade on February 2, 2022, by blocking access to the protest site and ordering participants to leave or face arrest. The operation was halted due to safety concerns, after multiple vehicles drove around the police barricades to reach the border blockade, travelled on the wrong side of the highway, and two vehicles collided. A local resident alleged that her SUV was hit by one of these vehicles while she and her family were attempting to get groceries. Someone from the other vehicle punched the resident's husband, who received stitches as a result. The RCMP began a new operation to clear the blockade, after discovering and seizing a substantial cache of guns and armour on February 14. There were 13 arrests on February 14 in relation to this seizure. The border crossing fully re-opened on February 15, after protest participants agreed to leave peacefully. Ontario–Michigan The economic loss caused by the blockade at the Ambassador Bridge connecting Windsor and Detroit, due to initial delays, was estimated at US$50 million per day when border crossing was still open but at a standstill, according to a February 9 Guardian article. BBC reported on February 12 that due to rerouting to other border crossings, that the estimated total cost to the automobile industry was calculated at approximately US$600 million (c. CA$763 million). According to the United States State Department Ambassador Bridge website, there is US$323 million worth of goods crossing it daily; with 10,000 commercial vehicles crossing each week day; and US$$1.7 billion in total "value in trade between Canada and the US every day." Manitoba–North Dakota The blockade in Emerson, Manitoba was estimated to be causing CA$70–73 million in economic loss each day. Criticism of Ottawa Police In response to criticism that police had been too soft on "disruptive protesters", on February 1, Chief Sloly said that it was a "measure of success" that there were "no riots, no injuries, no deaths". By February 4, Ottawa Police's response to the protests and later encampments of lingering protesters drew criticism from local residents. Complaints focused around lack of enforcement on noise due to constant horn-honking, disruption of livelihoods and continued gridlock. Police later addressed some concerns by issuing 30 tickets on February 3. Criticism has also focused on "the sharp contrast between the occupiers' reception and the ways police forces all over Canada treat Black and Indigenous people, who are violently policed for existing in public space, let alone protesting." On February 4, Ottawa Police hired Navigator Ltd, a crisis public relations firm to aid in handling messaging to the public. By February 13, on Day 17, federal Minister Blair "urged the police to do their jobs, enforce the law and restore order". Police enforcement of "layers of laws, injunctions, and emergency orders already in effect" was minimal, which further "emboldened" protesters on Ottawa's downtown core. On day 19 of the protests, February 15, Sloly resigned as Chief of the Ottawa Police Service. Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino announced that the RCMP and OPP would assume control of the situation in Ottawa. On February 16, Ottawa city councillor Diane Deans was removed by council as chair of the Police board, in a 15-9 vote. Councillors described the board as ineffective in oversight, and were critical of the hiring of an interim chief without consultation. Hiring is something the Ontario Police Services Act allows them to do, and the choice had received support of the Ontario Solicitor General. A vote to remove councillor Carol Anne Meehan from the board failed. Councillor Rawlson King resigned from the board during the meeting. A citizen vice chair resigned earlier in the day. Six investigators and two forensic investigators from the Special Investigations Unit (SIU) are investigating two incidents involving the police. The first is an incident on Friday, at about 5:14 p.m. on Rideau Street and Mackenzie Avenue involving a Toronto Police Service officer in the mounted police unit and a 49-year-old woman, who "has a reported serious injury". There is a now-debunked but widely-spread online rumour that a woman had been trampled by a horse and killed. The family of the woman said that "she is alive and is recovering from a broken clavicle." This was also confirmed by paramedics. On "Saturday, at about 7:18 p.m. Vancouver Police Department officers discharged Anti-Riot Weapon Enfields (less-lethal firearms) at individuals in the area of Sparks Street and Bank Street". The Ottawa Police Services Board unanimously supported a motion on February 24, for the Ontario Civilian Police Commission to open an investigation into the response to the protest. Criminal investigations Active investigations are underway for a number of widely publicized incidents including those related to the Unknown Soldier's memorial and the Terry Fox statue as well as for more general incidents, including bribery, threats, assault, dangerous driving, and setting a fire in a |

reported to have lost $22,000 ($ in current dollar terms) in 1914, Bannwart remained with the league in 1915, though it was reported that his role would be reduced. Instead, he sent teams a directive on selling season tickets, unsuccessfully petitioned the National Commission to reclassify the Colonial League as Class B, and drew up the 1915 schedule. At the April 1915 league meeting, Coppen was re-elected as president and Bannwart was elected secretary. Walter S. Ward, the treasurer of the Brooklyn Tip Tops of the Federal League and son of George S. Ward, an owner of the Tip Tops, was elected as the Colonial League's treasurer. Wanting to expand into Springfield, Massachusetts, and Hartford and New Haven, Connecticut, territory that belonged to the Eastern Association, the Colonial League reorganized itself as a farm system for the Federal League. and voluntarily withdrew itself from organized baseball. The Colonial League struggled financially in 1915, and Bannwart's polices were blamed. The quality of baseball was deemed to be below the expected standards of a Class C league in part due to the salary maximums set by Bannwart, diminishing fan interest in the league. In August 1915, Bannwart resigned from the Colonial League. The Federal and Colonial leagues both ceased operations during the 1915–16 offseason. In 1916, Bannwart tried to establish a new Class B league in some of the cities from the Colonial League, including Brockton, Taunton, and Fall River. He obtained the leases to the ballparks used in the Colonial League from the Wards. The teams failed to sell enough tickets to justify launching the league. Politics and real estate Bannwart began to idolize Woodrow Wilson when he was a student at Princeton while Wilson served as university president. When Wilson ran for president of the United States in the 1912 presidential election, Bannwart campaigned for him. He was elected president of the Woodrow Wilson Club of Brookline in September 1912 and advocated electing Wilson, a member of the Democratic Party, to Progressive Party political clubs. In 1916, he campaigned for Wilson's re-election and became the secretary of the Woodrow Wilson Independent League. Bannwart joined with other pacifists to protest against the proposed American entry into World War I. On a trip to the U.S. Capitol on April 2, 1917, his delegation approached Henry Cabot Lodge, a U.S. Senator from Massachusetts and the leading supporter of the war effort in the Senate, in a corridor. Bannwart and a colleague argued with Lodge, insisting that his constituents opposed the war. According to news reports, the argument escalated and Bannwart called Lodge a "coward". When Lodge responded that Bannwart was a "liar", Bannwart punched Lodge, who punched Bannwart back, setting off a melee among those present. Bannwart was knocked down by a nearby militarist. Bannwart was arrested for assault, but Lodge did not press charges. Bannwart was 36 years old at the time, while Lodge was 67 years old. After reading President Wilson's remarks to Congress, Bannwart changed his opinion, supporting America's involvement in the war. He delivered remarks to the Emergency Peace Federation supporting the war, ending his association with the group. In 1918, Bannwart sued Lodge for $20,000 ($ in current dollar terms), alleging that Lodge made false and malicious statements about him regarding their altercation. Prior to the 1919 court date, Lodge made a public acknowledgement that he hit Bannwart first, which settled the lawsuit. This is the only known occasion where a U.S. Senator attacked a constituent. Bannwart resumed working in real estate. In 1919, he was elected president of the Boston Independent Taxi Company. In 1920, Bannwart ran for the 19th district seat in the Massachusetts House of Representatives in the primary elections for the Democratic and Republican Party, losing in both. In 1924, Bannwart bought a mansion on Commonwealth Avenue in the Back Bay neighborhood of Boston, and set up a "Millionaire for a Day" promotion, allowing people to rent the furnished mansion with butlers and maids included. In December 1924, he and two others were cited for running an unlicensed dance hall out of the Back Bay mansion. He was found guilty and fined $25 ($ in current dollar terms). Bannwart appealed the conviction and changed his plea to nolo contendere and paid the fine. In 1927, Bannwart sold the house, which was appraised at $53,000 ($ in current dollar terms). | University. Despite not playing baseball at Princeton, he got a try-out for a team in the New England League in 1906. He bought the team and made himself the manager. After selling the team in 1909, Bannwart tried to form new baseball leagues and became involved in the Colonial League as an agent for Federal League magnates from 1914 to 1915. In 1917, Bannwart and a group of pacifists went to the United States Capitol to ask their representatives to oppose American entry into World War I. He got into a fistfight with U.S. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge and sued him a year later for slander. Bannwart worked in real estate and advocated for world federalism. Early life Bannwart was born on December 25, 1880, in Basel, Switzerland, to Theresa (née Metzger) and Franz Bannwart. His mother was German and his father was Swiss. He had two older siblings, Carl (born 1872) and Emilie (born 1873). The Bannwart family emigrated to Boston, Massachusetts, when he was a toddler. His father died when he was a teenager. He graduated from Phillips Academy in 1902. Bannwart then attended Princeton University, and graduated with a Bachelor of Laws in 1906. He had played intramural baseball at Princeton, but did not play for the Princeton Tigers. Bannwart enrolled at Harvard Law School, but did not complete his studies there. Baseball career New England League and Greater Boston League After graduating from Princeton in 1906, Bannwart got a trial opportunity with the Lowell Tigers of the New England League, a Class B minor league, as a second baseman. The team had been in a ten-game losing streak before Bannwart joined, and manager Fred Lake decided to call him "Al Winn". From July 7 to 13, he batted 3-for-16 (.188). When a proposed sale of the team fell through, Bannwart bought the Tigers on July 20 for $500 ($ in current dollar terms). Following a dispute, Bannwart released Lake in August and became manager of the team. In 1907, Bannwart built a new ballpark for the team in the center of town and continued serving as the team's manager. Bannwart hired Tom Fleming to manage the team in 1909, but later insisted he was in charge of the team when an umpire tried to eject him from Lowell's bench during a game. In May 1909, Bannwart fired Fleming and hired Tom Bannon to manage. In June 1909, Bannwart announced that he wanted to sell the team. The sale went through at the end of the month. Bannwart worked on the Greater Boston League, a semi-professional baseball league that he spent years trying to develop. It launched in 1912, but did not finish the season. Colonial League The Colonial League began to operate as a Class C league based in Southern New England in the 1914 season. In April, Bannwart drew notice by acquiring Big Jeff Pfeffer to manage the team in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. By May, it was suspected that Bannwart was working as an agent of the Federal League, an outlaw league working outside of the National Agreement. Bannwart denied this. Upon these news reports, some of the founding members of the Colonial League resigned, fearing banishment by the National Baseball Commission. In July, Pfeffer assaulted Bannwart and was suspended. Though Charles Coppen was nominally the president of the Colonial League, Bannwart began to exert authority at the Colonial League offices. Later in the 1914 season, Bannwart drew anger when he attempted to make last minute changes to the schedule designed to increase competitiveness in the standings and maximize profits at the box office. Due to the backlash from the teams, the schedule was not changed. Though the league was reported to have lost $22,000 ($ in current dollar terms) in 1914, Bannwart remained with the league in 1915, though it was reported that his role would be reduced. Instead, he sent teams |

various colors with the significance varying from state to state. The most common are red for temporary placards and blue for permanent ones. The availability of specially reserved parking spaces is regulated by both federal and state laws. Generally at least one space is available at any public parking location, with more being required based on the size of the parking lot and in some cases the type of location, such as a health care facility. Parking spaces reserved for disabled people are typically marked with the International Symbol of Access, though in practice, the design of the symbol varies widely. Often, the parking space is delineated with blue lines instead of the white or yellow lines used elsewhere in the lot. Anyone parking in such reserved spaces must have their disability plate or mirror placard displayed, or else the car can be ticketed for illegal parking. In some major US cities, local law also allows such vehicles to park for free at city parking meters and also exempts from time limits on time parked. In the US states of California, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, and Virginia, holders of a Disabled parking permit are exempt from parking meter fees (in Illinois, only disabled drivers who meet specific criteria are eligible for free parking). In some states (including Virginia) accessible-designated parking meters exist, which, unless the permit holder is exempt, must be paid at the same rate as non-designated meters. One will also be subject to receiving a violation ticket if a valid disability license plate or placard is not displayed on the vehicle. Fraudulent use of another person's placard is heavily fined. If traveling from other countries, requirements to obtain a parking permit vary from state to state. Some states will honour other country permits, while others require application as a visitor/tourist. Canada's provinces will honor a US state issued disabled plate or placard since US states will honor Canadian disabled plates and placards. In all types of dwellings, United States federal law states that it is unlawful and discriminatory to refuse services that may assist in making reasonable accommodations for those with disabilities. This includes any services or facilities that are necessary in order for the occupant to inhabit their dwelling as deemed standard. Integration with electric vehicle charging In California alone, there are over 27,000 Plug in Electric Vehicles (PEV) with about 2,000 being added every month. While most PEV charging is done at home, the public charging infrastructure is also expanding, with 6218 public charging stations as of July 2013. Although the number of PEVs is still a small portion of the cars on the road, and the number of PEVs with Handicap placards is much smaller still, the needs of handicap PEV drivers must be integrated with public charging spaces. Guidelines are that 1 in 25 PEV Charging Stations be made ADA space compliant. Although not intuitively obvious, it's important to recognize that a PEV charging station is not parking space, rather a charging service, in the same manner that gas station fill up spots are not parking spaces. Electric vehicle charging stations that meet the ADA space requirements are not to be reserved exclusively for the use of persons with disabilities, they are shared by any PEV needing to charge. Further more any PEV charging space, ADA space compliant or not, cannot be used by non-PEV vehicles, including those with handicap placards. Recommended signage, along with common courtesy, ask that ADA space compliant charging stations are to be used last. Abuse The abuse and misuse of disabled parking permits has been identified as a major problem in the US, with some estimates indicating the majority seen on the street are used or obtained fraudulently. The substantial privilege and convenience granted by a permit provides a major incentive to use one illegally or obtain one fraudulently, and medical privacy law often confounds attempts to identify truly disabled individuals from abuses. In 1999, for example, 19 of UCLA's current and former football players were charged with abuse of disabled parking placards. In 2013 a news program in Los Angeles filmed people using disabled parking placards outside a health club, including one of the health club's celebrity instructors and | or facility entrance..." Disabled parking permits generally take the form of either specially marked license plates or a placard that hangs from the rear-view mirror. Plates are generally used for disabled drivers on their personal vehicle, while the portable disability placard can be moved from one vehicle to another with the disabled person, both when driving or when riding with another driver. The medical requirements to obtain a permit vary by state, but are usually confined to specific types of disabilities or conditions. These as a general rule include the use of any assistive device such as a wheelchair, crutches, or cane, as well as a missing leg or foot. Some states also include certain cardiovascular, pain, or respiratory conditions. About half of US states (26) include blindness as a qualifying disability enabling the person to obtain a disability parking permit for use as a passenger, and 14 states include a disabled hand as a qualifying disability. Four states include deafness (Georgia, Kentucky, Virginia, Wyoming), and two states (Virginia and New York) include mental illness or developmental disabilities as qualifying disabilities.

the soldier further threatened to shoot her if she did not comply with his demands, she continued, pointing at her cross: "I belong to Christ, He is my bridegroom, you can shoot me". Following her death, the locals in the Czech Republic began to refer to Jahn as "the white rose from Bohemia". Beatification The beatification process opened on 28 June 2011 once the Congregation for the Causes of Saints issued the official "nihil obstat" (no objections) edict that expressed there to be no obstacles to the cause's initiation. But the process launched was not just for Jahn as it also decided to join nine other slain nuns to the list and used Jahn as the first name on the list. The process commenced at 10:00am on 25 November 2011 in a diocesan process that was launched after a Mass that the Archbishop of Wrocław Marian Gołębiewski presided over. The diocesan process concluded at a Mass held on 26 September 2015 in the metropolitan cathedral with Archbishop Józef Piotr Kupny presiding; that Mass saw four out of ten families of the murdered nuns in attendance. The C.C.S. in Rome validated the process as having complied with their regulations and in 2019 accepted the "Positio" dossier from the postulation (officials managing the cause) for further examination after it was printed in late 2018. Historians assessed the cause on 4 June 2019 to determine the historical circumstances that surrounded the murders of the nuns; nine theologians also approved the cause after examining the dossier on 24 November 2020. The cardinals and bishops from the C.C.S. later voiced their approval to the cause in mid-2021. Pope Francis signed a decree on 19 June 2021 that determined that the ten slain nuns had been killed "in odium fidei" (in hatred of the faith) and approved for them to be beatified without the miracle required as in most cases. The beatification for the ten slain nuns is scheduled to take place in Wrocław on 11 June 2022. The | made her First Communion. From 1930 untl 1933, she studied and worked at a private fruit processing plant in her hometown. But the financial strain on their household saw them leave their town and in late 1934 relocated to Herne in Westphalia. It was there that she worked at an apprentice house in Wuppertal-Barmen and joined them in a Marian organization. Jahn returned to her hometown sometime in 1935 and started to look after people with special needs, including an infirm old woman with a blind sister. Feeling called to the consecrated life, on 30 March 1937, she entered the Sisters of Saint Elizabeth and her twelve-month novitiate period started on 3 October 1938 before she made her initial religious profession on 19 October 1939 with the religious name of "Maria Paschalis". Jahn was first sent to Kluczbork and Głubczyce from 1939 until 13 April 1942 as a nurse to care for the children and the aged. In 1942, she was transferred to Nysa at Saint Elizabeth's House where she would start to cook and care for the older nuns. Upon the entrance of the Soviet armed forces into the town on 22 March 1945, she listened to her superior and left to take refuge with her peer, Fides Gemeinhardt, in a parish schoolhouse in Sobotín in the Czech Republic after a brief visit to Lesiny Wielkie. Jahn was well aware of the violence that the soldiers had perpetrated in the surrounding area and knew about their crimes which ranged from theft to rape; she was aware of the dangers that she could face but still decided to remain close with the people she swore to serve. To that end, Jahn continued to tend to the aged and the sick who were unable to leave the area. That May saw Soviet troops enter the town and, on the order of the parish priest, both sisters joined other refugees to hide in farm buildings to avoid the anti-religious soldiers. However, a Russian soldier shot Jahn dead with a shot to the heart on 11 May 1945 when she continued to refuse his unwanted advances. Jahn had been captured around noon, not noticing a soldier entering the house that she was living in. Running to the first floor, he cornered her and dragged her out amongst the others that had been captured, and started to molest her, however, she knelt down and held her rosary and cross and refused to indulge his requests. Jahn defied the soldier and said: "I wear a holy dress and I will never go with you". When the soldier further threatened to shoot her if she did not comply with his demands, she continued, pointing at her cross: "I belong to Christ, He is my bridegroom, you can shoot me". Following her death, the locals in the Czech Republic began to refer to Jahn as "the white rose from Bohemia".
