A group of non-native protesters blocked the Hanlon Expressway for about half an hour last night in a show of support for a group of Mohawks involved in a standoff near Deseronto, Ont.

About 20 young people stood in the southbound lanes below Paisley Road, near a small bonfire.

Three cars and a truck were stuck in the southbound lanes, between the intersection and the blockade.

Many other cars were temporarily caught in bottlenecks at the intersection. One man got out of his car to briefly push and yell at some of the protesters.  read more »
