French anti-riot police fired tear gas on convoys of protesters on Saturday, as the “Convoi de la Liberte” arrived in the French capital.  

Thousands of protestors gathered in Paris, inspired by the Canadian truckers protesting COVID-19 mandates, with some hoping to blockade the city.  

The demonstrators include those against mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations, as well as people protesting rising energy prices in France.
