Ottawa mayor suggests to sell towed trucks to pay down costs of policing convoy protest,

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson is suggesting that some of the trucks and other vehicles seized by police during a two-day operation to clear out the "Freedom Convoy" protest and occupation could be used to pay for some of the policing costs.

As of Saturday, police had towed 53 vehicles from downtown streets since movement began Friday to remove them, some of which had been occupying the area for three full weeks.

Speaking to CTV News Ottawa, Watson said this could be a chance to recoup some of the costs of the massive police operation.
