Trudeau warns of 'real concerns' after police reclaim downtown Ottawa

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is warning of 'real concerns' about the next few days as police being to reinstate normal life in Ottawa's downtown core.

Businesses are being encouraged and O-Train service resuming through downtown following the three-week "Freedom Convoy" demonstration.

But the prime minister said Monday morning there continue to be "real concerns" about what happens in the next few days.

"Even though things seem to be resolving very well in Ottawa, this state of emergency is not over," Justin Trudeau said. "There continue to be real concerns about the coming days."

Police say businesses who had closed their doors because of the occupation should feel safe to reopen. And the city's LRT service, which had not been running downtown over the weekend, has resumed.
