On the back of the tractor, a flag can be seen with the words “STOP SOGI,” which was confirmed by the witness who took the video.
A community member contacted Global News regarding a “STOP SOGI 123” protest that was planned for Saturday. A poster made for the “Road Rally” showed protesters planning to drive from Chilliwack, leaving at 10 a.m., and arriving in Vancouver at the PNE parking lot at 1 p.m.
It is unclear if the tractor was involved in the protest.
