OTTAWA—Massive crowds gathered on Parliament Hill on April 30 following the Rolling Thunder motorcycle convoy’s roll through downtown Ottawa on a city-designated route around noontime.

Earlier on April 30, the bike convoy arrived at the National War Memorial downtown just before noon, where they drove past the area as planned to pay homage to veterans who had sacrificed their lives for the freedom of Canadians.
