Interim Conservative leader Candice Bergen presented a motion today calling on the government to table a plan for the lifting of all federal mandates and restrictions while telling protesters encamped near Parliament Hill they’ve been heard and should leave.

“We believe the government must present a plan to quickly end the lockdowns and restrictions. Other countries are doing it. Provinces are doing it. And the Liberal government needs to do it,” Bergen said in the House of Commons on Feb. 10.
