Several mini-convoys rolled through communities in British Columbia on Jan. 28 as events were held in Canada, including in Ottawa, to mark the one-year anniversary of the trucker convoy protests against COVID-19 mandates.

Sarah Bankert was one of the primary organizers of a convoy in the B.C. Interior, beginning in Kelowna and driving approximately 125 kilometres west to Merritt before ending in Kamloops 90 kilometres north.
