Although the trucker protests in Canada, known as the Freedom Convoy, may have subsided, the truckers and protesters are still out there, forcing an unprecedented move by the Canadian Prime minister Justin Trudeau.

He enacted an emergency order usually associated with national security issues. At the same time, there has been a contagion effect, spreading to other parts of the world, like neighboring US, New Zealand, Australia and France.
