Pro-pipeline convoy to Ottawa cancelled
A cross-country convoy in support of the oil and gas industry has been cancelled.
Red Deer-based Rally 4 Resources and Calgary-based Canada Action were planning the convoy to leave Calgary on February 15 and arrive in Ottawa five days later, with stops in Regina, Winnipeg and Toronto along the way.
However, organizers issued a statement Monday saying they’ve had to cancel the event.
“We would like to recognize the overwhelming support and courage that so many Canadians from coast to coast have expressed in their desire to participate in the Resource Coalition Convoy to Ottawa,” read a statement posted on the GoFundMe page for the convoy.
