SASKATOON -- Saskatoon police responded Saturday to a "freedom rally" which began at the Vimy Memorial.
“Police were notified about the event earlier this week and have spoken with organizers,” police said in a news release.
The protesters said they want an open discourse and discussion about provincial COVID-19 regulations.
Following speeches, police said the group was expected to depart the area and walk along a pre-determined route.
The protesters were expected to travel to Broadway Avenue, then circle to River Landing and back downtown.
Traffic restrictions have been lifted, police say.
