Canadian police have broken up protests against coronavirus restrictions, which had been blocking an important trade route with the US. A blockade of trucks and cars had stopped the flow of commerce across Windsor's Ambassador Bridge - North America's busiest border crossing. But demonstrators at a larger protest are still occupying parts of the Canadian capital Ottawa - to the annoyance of local residents.
After a week-long standoff at the Ambassador Bridge, police in Windsor, Ontario, have arrested dozens of protesters and cleared away vehicles that had blocked the vital highway.
The situation in Canada's capital, Ottawa, remains far from resolved. Trucks block the city center and protesters camp out in front of Parliament.
Residents have had enough.
Police have been reluctant to clear out protesters as long as there are children with them.
Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has told protesters it's time to go home. They don't seem to be listening.
