The convoy tried to set up in Toronto. Toronto cops wouldn't let them park anywhere and wouldn't let them get near Queens Park, and a bunch of citizens gave them a piece of their minds. Off they went.

They tried Montreal. The cops there gave them the use of a certain street until 5 pm, at 5:05 they would start writing tickets and at 5:10 they would start towing. Off they went.

They tried Vancouver. A bunch of citizens on bicycles diverted them and stopped them from being able to get to where they wanted to go and prevented them from gathering in any one spot. Off they went.

Mind you, all of these places had the benefit of seeing what was happening in Ottawa.

What Ottawa probably should have done was divert incoming protest vehicles to a secure parking area away from downtown, and made them walk. (People are allowed to protest peacefully. Trucks aren't.) No overnight parking ... get out of town.
No weigh bill or cargo, no entry. Bouncy castles don’t count. Go park at the local truck stop and see about how much they love you.

There was concern by the heavy tow trucks that they could offend their potential future clients. Pickup trucks would just be white trash.
