Tamara Lich, Chris Barber accused of orchestrating 2022 demonstration that took over downtown Ottawa It started more than a year ago, took nearly 50 days in a courtroom and may not be decided until next year, but the trial of two leaders of the 2022 “Freedom Convoy” protest in Ottawa finally ended Friday.

Tamara Lich and Chris Barber pleaded not guilty to mischief, intimidation, obstruction and other charges.

Crown prosecutors called 16 witnesses and presented hours of video evidence and numerous social media posts in an effort to prove their case.

I seriously hope these two racist assholes get what they deserve, but with Lawrence Greenspon as their lawyer, who knows.

    Another reason why it’s sometimes so far away is that they need a date that’s available for the lawyers on both sides, the judge, and the courtroom is available; sometimes it’s a nightmare.
