In Vaughan, just north of Toronto, protesters blockaded the Macmillan rail yard in solidarity with Wet'suwet'en land defenders, who are opposing a gas pipeline being built across their land. It's just the latest in a series of (very effective) nationwide blockades and protests.
Also, the phrasing "pop-up protest" is just funny to me idalkdjflkd https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/gta-protesters-ontario-rail-blockade-1.5465525

It's an uncomfortable reality that the co-op movement and the labour movement are often at odds. Here's an important story from Regina, SK, where the Federated Cooperatives, Ltd. refinery has locked out Unifor Local 594: https://www.thestar.com/edmonton/2020/02/09/this-fight-between-a-union-and-a-co-op-is-threatening-to-divide-the-province-that-birthed-the-canadas-labour-movement.html
(As the article notes, Unifor itself has a bit of a turbulent relationship with the wider Canadian labour movement and left-of-centre politics…they've affiliated themselves with the Liberal Party)
