00:00:00.400 Hello everyone, Nadine Woolwood today, special assignment for the Western Standard.
00:00:06.320 We are down here at the Whistle Stop and there has been an injunction to stop this protest
00:00:12.560 ordered by the Court of Queen's Bench and it has not stopped people from coming out.
00:00:18.560 We are lined up, the parking lot is full, there are two areas that are just, you can
00:00:25.200 see behind me here, this is just one small area and people have come out on mass to show
00:00:31.840 their support for Chris Scott and for Freedom and we do have RCMP here on site today.
00:00:39.420 They are right now just sort of monitoring the events and please follow us along all day
00:00:45.280 as we will be sending in reports of what the activities, speakers and what's been transpiring.
00:00:51.140 So, if you've been following along the Whistle Stop at all, people here have not been discouraged
00:00:58.120 by the injunction.
00:00:59.780 I think as a matter of fact, they may have actually been somewhat encouraged and they feel
00:01:05.840 that strongly.
00:01:07.060 For some people, this is their first time coming out to a protest.
00:01:11.160 So, follow us along today.
00:01:13.140 Thanks for watching.
