Calgary (660 NEWS) – Around two thousand protesters have gathered outside of the Hyatt Regency Hotel, as Justin Trudeau is giving a speech to a business audience Thursday.
Two separate protests are in the area; one group involves postal workers who are upset about back to work legislation introduced by the federal government Thursday morning. The second group involves pro pipeline demonstrators.
The protestors have spilled onto Centre street with police having to shut down north and southbound Centre Street at 7th Ave.
Protestors can be heard yelling “build that pipe” and “Trudeau must go”
