Ontario Solicitor General Sylvia Jones announced on Monday new measures to crackdown on illegal blockades at international border crossings, like bridges and airports. The measures allow the government to temporarily suspend drivers’ licenses and vehicle permits for anyone taking part in an illegal blockade. Jones also announced $96 million on training for law enforcement and the purchase of new equipment to remove blockades, as well as the expansion of the Public Order Unit of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).
