Truckers in Ottawa have been told to stop blasting their horns as part of a protest that has clogged the streets. The incessant blare of truck horns has become one of the defining characteristics of the anti-vaccine movement in Canada. However, Judge Hugh McLean has ordered that they remain silent for the next ten days. "Tooting a horn is hardly an expression of any significant idea that I'm aware of," Justice McLean said in a ruling presented to locals on Monday.

Northern Ireland, Health Minister Robin Swann has received support from other executive ministers to ease Covid-19 limits. Mr Swann wrote to his ministerial colleagues, seeking their input on how to remove the remaining constraints. Although the executive branch of the government dissolved in February, individual ministers remain in place. They have the authority to make decisions as long as the concerns are not judged "significant or contentious." Government lawyers warned Mr Swann that lowering Covid rules would fall under this category, according to his letter to fellow ministers.
