Hard to know what to make of this. Obviously not much in and of itself, but could be the first step in police ramping up measures to push people out.

The question that I can't answer is how the hell do you tow all these vehicles away when every time a crowd of protesters crowd in to physically block you? Not to mention the trucks in camps outside the city that would move in to block you.
Does Ottawa have the capacity to arrest thousands of people/tow hundreds of vehicles before many more protesters respond to the call for reinforcements and drive in from all over the region? Seems hard to believe.
The protesters know they have strength in numbers. I asked one trucker yesterday about what happens if under the state of emergency his accounts are frozen and he loses his truck. His response: So what? It's just going to sit here. It's not like they can physically take it.
