The crowdfunding site GoFundMe said it would refund or redirect to charities the vast majority of millions raised by demonstrators protesting COVID-19 measures in the Canadian capital.

In The Netherlands, Austria, France, Belgium, and other countries, protestors are clashing with police in defiance of COVID-19 restrictions.

Construction workers and others opposed to new COVID-19 vaccine rules have taken to the streets. Some allege that right-wing extremists have infiltrated the increasingly violent protests.

At least 150 people were reportedly arrested amid violent protests against coronavirus restrictions.

Many people are angry that the Netherlands has imposed a new curfew to contain the spread of COVID-19 and new variants of the coronavirus.
