Hundreds of people crowded the roadway south of 8th Avenue many dressed in Canadian flags dancing and occasionally breaking out into cries of "freedom" and rounds of the national song. Since Saturday when a vehicle convoy from Chilliwack descended on the border crossing access to the major crossing into the United States has been barred.
