B.C. Premier John Horgan to step down before next election

Premier will leave office after NDP holds leadership convention in the fall

B.C. Premier John Horgan has announced his plans to step down before the next provincial election.

The two-term NDP premier made the announcement Tuesday, saying he had every intention to run for another term but decided he couldn't continue after undergoing "rigorous" treatment for throat cancer within the past several months.

"My health is good, but my energy flags as the days go by," Horgan, 62, told reporters gathered in Vancouver.

"We came to the conclusion that I'm not able to make another six-year commitment to this job."

Horgan, now cancer-free, said he will resign after his party holds a leadership convention in the fall. He will continue to serve as MLA for the riding of Langford-Juan de Fuca for the remainder of his term.

The resignation announcement comes after Horgan's cabinet gathered for a midterm retreat in Vancouver this week. He said it's "tradition" for the politicians to discuss their plans for the future during the summit, but he'd already made his decision after talking it over with his wife, Ellie, during a week-long trip to the west coast of Vancouver Island earlier this month.

Over the winter, the premier received 35 radiation treatments for throat cancer. The experience, he said, prompted him and his wife to reflect on how they'd like to spend the rest of their lives.

"The cancer diagnosis and treatment was rigorous ... I wish I had more energy to do more, but I just don't," he said.

"My spouse and I just felt it was time," he added, referring to Ellie as "the love of my life."

John Horgan to step down as B.C. premier this fall

Horgan says a leadership convention will take place in the fall to choose his successor.

Horgan leaves historic legacy with B.C. NDP

Horgan is the only two-term premier in the history of B.C.'s New Democratic party, having won his second term after calling a snap election during the first year of the pandemic in the fall of 2020.

The party's victory was remarkably decisive, capturing 57 of 87 seats in the legislature — the most the NDP had ever won in a provincial election and the first time the party had won a majority government since 1996.

The success built upon Horgan's first term, in which he ousted former longtime B.C. Liberal premier Christy Clark and struck a historic confidence-and-supply agreement with the B.C. Green Party to form a minority government.

In that first term, the NDP party enacted the majority of its campaign promises: eliminating MSP premiums and tolls on the Port Mann and Golden Ears bridges, increasing disability and shelter rates while raising taxes on the wealthiest as well as creating a speculation tax on second homes.

A second term has focused on a number of emergencies, from the pandemic to wildfire and flooding disasters. Despite an array of criticism on responses to those crises, polls found Horgan more or less remained one of the most well-liked politicians in the country. He also retained the full confidence of the NDP caucus.

Speculation around the possibility of a mid-term resignation began last summer. His bout with throat cancer was his second with the disease, having survived bladder cancer in his 40s. 

With his decision, Horgan has become the first B.C. premier to leave office without being pushed out by election defeat, public scandal or pressure from their own party since former premier Bill Bennett resigned in 1986.

The timing of Tuesday's announcement gives the NDP ample time to choose its next leader carefully before the next election, which is scheduled for 2024. A long leadership race also gives the successor space to build a relationship with the public before votes are cast.

Horgan began his career in politics as a legislative assistant in the 1990s, working in a number of policy roles across several ministries before winning his first term as an MLA in what was then known as the riding of Malahat-Juan de Fuca in 2005. 

He served as Leader of the Opposition for three years, from 2014 to 2017.

2 NDP candidates resign following 'unacceptable' online comments

Candidates were running in Ontario, Nova Scotia ridings

Two NDP candidates have resigned with less than a week to go. (Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press)

The NDP says two of its candidates have quit the federal election race with less than a week to go, promising to learn more about antisemitism.

Party spokesperson George Soule said Wednesday morning that Sidney Coles, running in Toronto-St. Paul's, and Dan Osborne, running in the Nova Scotia riding of Cumberland-Colchester, are resigning by choice, but the party supports their decisions.

Soule said they both agreed to learn more about antisemitism.

As first reported by the Toronto Star, Coles claimed on Twitter that Israel was somehow responsible for missing doses of COVID-19 vaccine in the United States last winter.

She later apologized for posting "unsubstantiated theories about vaccine supply linked to Israel," and said it was never her intent to indulge a "common antisemitic trope," the newspaper reported.

Osborne is accused of tweeting at TV personality Oprah Winfrey in 2019 asking "was Auschwitz a real place?"

He responded this week, from a different account, saying he has no memory of tweeting that, but apologized.

"I want to offer an apology. The role of Auschwitz and the history of the Holocaust is one we should never forget. Antisemitism should be confronted and stopped," he said.

WATCH | Singh reacts to NDP candidates resigning

'Their comments were completely wrong, and have no place in our party' - Singh on past comments made by two NDP candidates who resigned Wednesday

Duration 2:25
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh faces several questions about two NDP resigning. Sidney Coles who was running in Toronto-St. Paul's and Dan Osborne who was running in the Nova Scotia riding of Cumberland-Colcheste have promised to learn more about anti-Semitism after some of their past comments resurfaced.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh called the messages "unacceptable."

"I want to be very clear: their comments were completely wrong and have no place in our party," he said during a campaign stop in Essex, Ont., on Wednesday morning.

"Those messages were completely unacceptable and the right decision was made."

Green Party Leader Annamie Paul, herself Jewish, said antisemitism is on the rise and applauded those who raised concerns about the two candidates' tweets.

"It is gratifying to know there are those who are going to raise their voice, because we have said many times that silence is the thing that emboldens hate," she said during a stop in Kitchener, Ont.

"When you see it, call it out."

Conservatives, Liberals have also lost candidates

The other two main parties have also lost candidates embroiled in scandal on the campaign trail.

Over the weekend, the Conservatives dumped their candidate in the Toronto riding of Beaches–East York after past Islamophobic tweets surfaced.

Just yesterday, a Conservative candidate in the western Quebec riding of Pontiac apologized for sharing two racist jokes on Facebook. He remains on the Conservative slate, according to the Ottawa Citizen.

Speaking Wednesday in Jonquiere, Que, O'Toole said he has a zero tolerance policy for racism.

"Every single one of our candidates is running on a positive vision for the future of this country and a positive vision to bring people together," O'Toole said when asked about the candidate.

"I'm very proud to say we have the most diverse slate of candidates that we've ever had, the most women, and we're all singularly focused on Canada's recovery plan."

At the start of the campaign, another Conservative Party candidate, Troy Myers, stepped out of the race in a Nova Scotia riding following an allegation from a woman who says he sexually assaulted her at a work conference in 2019. He denies the allegation.

Former Liberal candidate and incumbent Raj Saini stepped down from the race in the Ontario riding of Kitchener Centre after allegations of sexual harassment were made against him. Saini has denied all the allegations as "unequivocally false."

Because his name is still on the ballot, Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau said he would not welcome back Saini in his caucus if he wins the seat, and he would not be able to sit as a Liberal in the House of Commons.

The fact she is in ankle shackles is ridiculous. She never tried to run away and she is not a violent threat. Love to her, from a 64 year old grandma.🇨🇦
 
 
The more they persecute Tamara the more they prove that this is politically driven. The more they will turn the people against them. I think Tamara realizes this. An angel...she commands respect from all who surround her only because she gives respect. An example to us all!
 
 
Tamara will run in politics because she needs to. All political parties need to take a lesson on her integrity, solid personality and dedication to Canadian’s rights. I am proud of our Canadian Citizen from Medicine Hat Alberta Canada, she is going to be in our history books.

Convoy organizer Tamara Lich again granted bail

Judge sets aside lower court's previous decision

Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich has again been granted bail.

 Lich faces charges of mischief, obstructing police, counselling others to commit mischief, intimidation and more recently failing to comply with bail for her role in Ottawa's massive winter protest-turned-occupation against COVID-19 restrictions and the Liberal government.

After she was accused of breaching her bail conditions, Lich was ordered to remain in custody to await trial for her role in the protest that paralyzed downtown Ottawa in February.

She had been ordered not to communicate with key convoy organizers except through counsel or in the presence of counsel, but was re-arrested after having contact with fellow protest leader Tom Marazzo at an awards gala in Toronto last month.

Marazzo is also a leader of a group called Veterans 4 Freedom, which staged several rallies in Ottawa over the Canada Day weekend.

In court Monday, her lawyer Lawrence Greenspon argued the two organizers did nothing more than shake hands and pose for a photo together at the gala.

She had spent 48 days in jail while she waits to answer to non-violent charges, Greenspon said. He added that she may end up spending more time in custody before her trial than she would ultimately have to serve if she is found guilty.

Crown counsel Moiz Karimjee disagreed, saying there's the potential for Lich to serve a lengthy prison sentence for her role in the Ottawa protests.

On Tuesday morning, Justice Andrew Goodman set Lich's detention aside, moving to a bail hearing de novo — essentially a fresh start as though the previous decision never happened. 

Goodman challenged the Crown Monday about whether he has found a case of mischief that's come close to the maximum sentence of 10 years.

"The answer to that is no, because there's never been an occupation of a city, the capital of Canada, for three weeks," Karimjee said. "If not in a situation such as this, then what other situation?"

On Tuesday, Goodman said he found it unlikely based on the charges that Lich will spend a long time in prison. He also noted her charges are non-violent.

Lich's trial date has not been set. This week was the fifth time Lich was before the court to argue for her freedom from jail while she awaits a trial.

The new conditions of her bail include another $37,000 bond, and tightened rules around communication with the same list of convoy-linked people as last time.

"It must be crystal clear to you by now that authorities are monitoring your every action," Goodman said to Lich.

From my experience covering courts, judges usually revoke bail for a violation, even a small one. If you have a bail breech on your criminal record it can be near impossible to get bail again, even years later

Tamara Lich to Remain in Jail While Awaiting Bail Review Set for Late July

July 14, 2022

A bail review will be held on July 25 for Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich who is awaiting trial in an Ontario court on allegations of breaching her bail terms, her lawyer said.

The bail review for Lich’s case was scheduled at the Ontario Superior Court at the earliest available date, according to defence lawyer Eric Granger, who appeared briefly via teleconference before the Ontario Court of Justice on July 14.

Lich was originally scheduled to appear for trial at the Ontario court today over allegations of having breached her bail terms set previously, after being denied bail in her last court appearance on July 8.

Her case in the Ontario Court of Justice is adjourned until after the bail review on July 28.

Lich has remained in custody since she was rearrested on June 27.

Arrest, Bail

A key Freedom Convoy organizer, Lich was first arrested on Feb. 17 and charged with mischief, counselling to commit mischief, and obstructing police, among other charges.

The Freedom Convoy protest started as a demonstration against the federal COVID-19 vaccine mandate imposed on cross-border truck drivers, which came into effect in January. The protest soon expanded into a larger movement with many Canadians joining in to protest various COVID-19 mandates and restrictions.

The protests in Ottawa lasted for around three weeks, ending after the federal government invoked the Emergencies Act on Feb. 14 and police cleared the demonstration in an escalated operation over a few days.

After initially being denied bail on Feb. 22, and having spent 19 days in custody, Lich was released on bail on March 7 under a number of conditions, including having no contact with fellow convoy organizers and not setting foot in Ontario.

In April, the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms selected Lich as the winner of the 2022 George Jonas Freedom Award and invited her to accept the award in a ceremony in Toronto on June 16.

Crown prosecutors said in May that by agreeing to attend the award ceremony, Lich had violated her bail terms and should be sent back to jail to await trial.

On May 25, Ontario Superior Court Justice Kevin Phillips ruled that Lich didn’t breach her bail conditions, saying that the “courts are not a thought police.”

Rearrest, Denied Bail

On June 27, just days after attending the award ceremony in Toronto, Lich was rearrested in her hometown of Medicine Hat, Alberta, under a Canada-wide warrant, and was transferred back to Ottawa to attend a bail hearing.

During a court hearing on July 5, Crown prosecutors alleged that Lich had violated her bail conditions when she interacted with fellow convoy organizer Tom Marazzo at the June 16 award ceremony.

The Crown presented a photograph of Lich and Marazzo at the event and a video recording as evidence. The video allegedly shows Lich giving a speech at the event, and then sitting at a table where Marazzo and others are seated. In the video, Lich was seen approaching Marazzo and the two interacted briefly.

At that hearing, defence lawyer Lawrence Greenspon said a brief congratulatory exchange after winning an award wouldn’t lead to illegal activity and isn’t a breach of bail conditions. The court also heard testimony that lawyers who were present at the event approved the picture taken of Lich and Marazzo. Greenspon said Lich’s bail terms specified that there should be no communication with convoy organizers except in the presence of counsel.

After spending days reviewing the case, Justice of the Peace Paul Harris said on July 8 that he was siding with the Crown, saying that Lich chose to sit at a table with Marrazo and that it is “absolutely ridiculous” for her to believe she could justify interacting with Marazzo by having her lawyers in the room.

Harris said Lich still poses a risk to public safety, as some Freedom Convoy protests continue to be held in Ottawa from time to time.

Bail review for 'Freedom Convoy' organizer Pat King to continue on Thursday

An earlier hearing in April came to an abrupt and unexpected halt when his lawyer's computer appeared to be hacked

 OTTAWA -

“Freedom Convoy” organizer Pat King is waiting to hear whether he will be released on bail, with a bail review set to continue for a second day Thursday.

He was back in an Ottawa courtroom Wednesday after an earlier hearing in April came to an abrupt and unexpected halt when his lawyer's computer appeared to be hacked.

Since then, King has tapped a new lawyer to fight for his release and defend him against a mounting number of charges.

The day after the April hearing, the Crown announced it was charging King with three counts each of perjury and obstruction of justice.

The details of the testimony that led to those allegations are protected by a publication ban.

The proceedings on Wednesday were also covered by a publication ban.

The latest accusations are in addition to 10 charges related to King's involvement in the downtown Ottawa protest earlier this year.

The previous charges include mischief, intimidation, obstructing police and disobeying a court order.

King was arrested on Feb. 18 for his involvement in the three-week protest against COVID-19 restrictions that overran the streets of Ottawa.

Convoy organizer Tamara Lich will not win a Nobel Prize

 
By Max Fawcett | Opinion | July 14th 2022
 
 
Tamara Lich's supporters want to build her up as a martyr to freedom, writes columnist Max Fawcett. Photo illustration by Lev Krag
 
Nelson Mandela. Mahatma Gandhi. Vaclav Havel. And … Tamara Lich? In the wake of her recent arrest for violating the terms of her bail, one of the key architects of the occupation of downtown Ottawa earlier this year is being described by her supporters as a “political prisoner,” with the loopier corners of the internet suggesting her name belongs on the aforementioned list. There’s even talk that she’s going to be nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.

There’s no way of actually confirming that since the Nobel Prize committee is very clear that “the names of the nominees and other information about the nominations cannot be revealed until 50 years later.” Even if Lich could find a university professor or a member of Parliament to nominate her for the prize, her odds of actually winning it are about the same as Donald Trump’s.

But that’s not what matters to her supporters and political enablers. They want to build her up as a martyr to freedom and a heroic figure of resistance against the supposed “tyranny” of a minority government and its handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. To them, she belongs in the same conversation as those other famous champions of freedom and justice.

That Lich is no Mandela should be abundantly clear to all but the most terminally obtuse people. Where he was fighting a political and economic system that entrenched white power and disenfranchised Black South Africans, Lich is resisting the efforts of a democratically elected government to help protect people from a pandemic.

Indeed, the recent news that she planned to trade on her claimed Métis heritage shows why any comparison to Mandela or Martin Luther King Jr. is ludicrous on its face. “It’s going to work in our favour,” she texted co-conspirator Chris Barber back in late January before the convoy arrived in Ottawa. “Playing the race card works both ways lol.”

In the end, of course, it didn’t exactly work out in their favour. Both Lich and Barber were charged with six offences, including obstructing police, counselling intimidation, and mischief. Lich then had her bail revoked late last month after she posed for a photo with Tom Marazzo, a fellow convoy organizer and someone with whom she was expressly forbidden from contacting, at the George Jonas Freedom Award gala where Lich was being honoured. "Ms. Lich is not prepared to follow court orders and is prepared to do whatever she feels like doing," Justice of the Peace Paul Harris said in his decision.

Lich’s allies in politics and the press were quick to jump to her defence. Lawyer and pundit Ari Goldkind described the decision to revoke her bail as “the weaponization of the tremendous power of the Crown & Police to stifle their ideological enemies.”

Even more moderate voices like former Maclean’s columnist Stephen Maher mooted her case. On Twitter, he described her as a “political prisoner” and wrote, “I’m reminded a little of the blowback I used to get when I wrote columns about Omar Khadr, and the failure of the Harper government to get him out of Gitmo, although the people chiding me then are not chiding me now over Lich.”

That might be because they understand the obvious differences between the illegal torture of a child being held in U.S. custody and an adult who deliberately refuses to follow the clearly articulated terms of her own release. One is an insult to the rule of law, while the other, an act necessary to uphold it.

Opinion: "So, no, Tamara Lich is not a political prisoner, just like Canada isn’t a dictatorship," writes @natobserver columnist @maxfawcett. #TamaraLich #FreedomConvoy

 As constitutional scholar Emmett Macfarlane noted: “That she was released the first time — and that everyone else affiliated with the convoy and charged for their actions were granted bail (as far as I know) — and only denied bail after breaching conditions, seems to demonstrate fairness.”

If anything, the Crown and police have bent over backwards to accommodate Lich and her fellow convoy members. From the perspective of many Ottawa residents, including those who have joined a $306-million class action lawsuit against the convoy leaders, they bent over much further than they ever should have.

Remember: These are people who arrived in Ottawa with the stated intention of overthrowing a democratically elected government. When they didn’t get their way, they were allowed to occupy our nation’s capital for the better part of three weeks and indulge in collective acts of vandalism and harassment. Far from being violated or infringed, their freedoms were extensively catered to by law enforcement and allowed to run roughshod over those of almost everyone else in the process.

And while Lich’s supporters talk a big game about standing up for the rights of other Canadians, it’s hard to imagine them being so vocal if the person in question was, say, a land defender who blockaded a pipeline project. Their advocacy, in other words, is entirely conditional — and entirely dependent upon the politics of the person they’re defending.

So, no, Lich is not a political prisoner, just like Canada isn’t a dictatorship. She will have her day in court and her case will get a fair and full hearing. Her guilt or innocence will be determined by the facts of the case, not the political leanings of the judge who hears it.

Whether her supporters understand it or not, that’s still how things work in this country. The rest of us should remember what actual political prisoners look like, and what efforts to dilute that term for political purposes are really about.

Freedom convoy leader Tamara Lich arrested in Alberta, accused of breaching bail conditions 




Tamara Lich's bail revoked, will remain in custody

Justice of the peace Paul Harris said court found Lich's actions 'troubling'

 
CBC News ·

Freedom convoy leader Tamara Lich's bail has been revoked for violating the conditions of her release when she attended an awards gala in Toronto and had contact with another convoy organizer.

Justice of the peace Paul Harris announced his decision in an Ontario Court of Justice courtroom in Ottawa on Friday afternoon, with Lich present in person.

Her detention is necessary "to maintain confidence in the administration of justice," Harris said.

He added it was "absolutely ridiculous" for her defence to argue that the presence of lawyers at the award gala somehow circumvented the bail condition.

In the gallery, someone started crying while another rushed out of the courtroom.

Lich's next appearance is scheduled for July 14 via video.

Lich has been in jail since she was taken into custody in Medicine Hat, Alta., on June 27, after Ottawa police issued a Canada-wide warrant for her arrest.

She faces charges of mischief, counselling mischief, obstructing police, counselling to obstruct police, counselling intimidation, and intimidation by blocking and obstructing one or more highways in relation to the protest that shut down parts of Ottawa for roughly three weeks this past winter.

Supporters holding Canadian flags chanted "Free Tamara," outside the courthouse after the decision.

Speaking to reporters outside the courthouse, defence lawyer Lawrence Greenspon said he was "extremely disappointed" in the decision, and that the defence will seek a bail review in the Superior Court of Ontario "as quickly as possible."

He said Lich was "understandably disappointed with the result, and wanting to regain her freedom as soon as possible."

4th bail hearing held earlier this week

Lich appeared virtually in an Ottawa courtroom Tuesday for her fourth bail hearing since she was first arrested in February.

Crown prosecutor Moiz Karimjee said photo and video showing Lich at a Toronto award gala, posing with, and briefly speaking to, fellow convoy organizer Tom Marazzo, amounted to a "flagrant" breach of her conditions.

He argued Lich should be detained, adding the judge who released her on bail gave her a "gift ... she kicks in the mouth."

But Greenspon said Lich's actions were "minimalist at worst" and didn't amount to a violation, so she should be released again with conditions.

He argued the fact that "all they've got" is a photo and video is proof the conditions are working, saying the court needs to answer a simple question — should Lich be detained for what she did in Toronto?

Bail condition wording dissected

One of Lich's bail conditions states she cannot contact or communicate in any way, by physical, electronic or any other means, with a list of people associated with the convoy — including Marazzo — except through counsel or in the presence of counsel.

That wording was dissected during the hearing earlier this week, with Greenspon saying it refers to communication, rather than physical contact.

He also asked Det. Chris Benson, lead investigator in the case, whether he could identify lawyers with the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), which put on the award ceremony June 16.

Benson said he could not, adding he was not aware of any of Lich's lawyers being in the video or photo taken that same night.

But the detective told the court he believes Lich's actions constituted a breach.

"She's sitting at a table with Mr. Marazzo at a social event, a gala. This is not a lawyer's office, this is not a boardroom," said Benson. "She's then photographed later that night with Mr. Marazzo, arm in arm."

Tamara Lich, one of the leaders of the protest that gripped Ottawa in January and February has identified herself as a card-carrying member of the Métis Nation of Alberta (MNA). 
 
APTN News was given access to her card and form proving her membership in the MNA but agreed not to post photos of them. According to the documents, Lich became a member in January 2019. The documents were signed off by Audrey Poitras, president of the MNA. In an affidavit filed in court on March 2, 2022, Lich said she was born in Saskatoon, Sask., and adopted by a white family. 
 
For the Public Record I talked to Madame Lich before the Truckers headed to Ottawa and I liked her I have no doubt whatsoever that the RCMP et al were quite rattled to see the lady and her friends following me in Twitter while the protest was under full steam ahead

Tamara Lich will stay in jail because of ‘troubling’ new evidence about her role in the Ottawa protest, Ontario court rules

Justice of the Peace Paul Harris said that new text message evidence about a strategy to “gridlock” Ottawa during the convoy protests shows Tamara Lich can’t be released ahead of her criminal trial.

By Alex BallingallOttawa Bureau
Fri., July 8, 2022

OTTAWA — “Troubling” new evidence against Tamara Lich means the so-called “freedom convoy” organizer should remain in prison ahead of a criminal trial for her role in last winter’s anti-government and anti-vaccine protests, an Ontario court justice ruled Friday.

While Lich’s lawyer vowed to appeal, the decision means the 49-year-old Alberta woman will remain behind bars after she allegedly violated a condition of her release by interacting with another convoy organizer at a gala celebrating the “freedom” movement last month.

In his decision, Justice of the Peace Paul Harris concluded that the “vulnerable victims” of the convoy disruptions in Ottawa will continue to fear a repeat of the protests if Lich is allowed to communicate with other organizers while she faces criminal charges.

Stating that the gala celebrated demonstrations that struck fear into residents of the capital, Harris said: “Ms. Lich has chosen to exercise her freedom by not following a court order.”

Harris also cited new information the Crown presented in court this week, which showed text messages between Lich and her co-accused on several charges, Saskatchewan trucker Chris Barber.

Among the texts is a statement from Lich on Jan. 30 — two days after the protesters arrived in Ottawa — about a “strategy to gridlock the city,” which she said she did not want to make decisions about on her own.

“This court finds the actions of Ms. Lich to be troubling,” Harris said.

“Her communications alone indicate she may have been a leader of some sort,” he added, stating that it will be up to a trial judge to determine her degree of influence over the “chaos” last winter.

Addressing Lich directly, Harris said: “Your detention is necessary to maintain confidence in the administration of justice.”

Outside the courthouse, a group of about 20 supporters heckled nearby media and chanted slogans that included “Free Tamara,” “Shame!” and “China-da” — a seeming comparison of the country to the authoritarian Communist regime in China.

One man also carried a placard that called for Ottawa’s mayor to be arrested and for the Crown lawyer in Lich’s case to be disbarred.

Lawrence Greenspon, Lich’s defence lawyer, told reporters he was “extremely disappointed” in the ruling and that Lich instructed him to apply for a review of Harris’s decision as soon as possible.

“She’s sitting in custody and we want to get her out,” Greenspon said.

Lich was first arrested in the waning days of the protests in February, denied bail, and then released on an appeal of that decision on March 7. Charges against her include mischief, counselling to commit mischief, counselling to commit intimidation, counselling to obstruct police and counselling to obstruct one or more highways.

She was arrested again on June 27 in Medicine Hat, after police issued a Canada-wide warrant alleging she violated a condition of her release.

The condition barred her from “any” contact with a list of fellow convoy organizers, including retired soldier Tom Marazzo, unless through or in the presence of legal counsel.

But on June 16, Lich attended a gala in Toronto to accept the George Jonas Freedom Award from the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, an organization that supports the convoy protests’ stance against COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

In court this week, the Crown played video that showed Lich seated at the same table as Marazzo during the event, as well as a brief interaction between them as Lich walked back to her seat after accepting the award.

The Crown also pointed to a photograph posted online after the event that showed Lich and Marazzo posing side-by-side in a line of smiling attendees.

Greenspon, meanwhile, had argued the Crown could only prove minimal interaction, and suggested that lawyers may have been nearby when this occurred.

Harris, in his Friday decision, rejected the suggestion as “ridiculous,” stating the intent of the bail condition was clearly to allow for communication for legal reasons only.

Moiz Karimjee, the Crown lawyer in the case, also presented the text message records taken from Barber’s phone.

Alongside Lich’s text about the “gridlock strategy,” the records show that she also expressed concerns about Pat King, another convoy figure facing criminal charges who is a far-right online commentator that has espoused the baseless, racist white replacement theory.

On Jan. 23, five days before the convoy started arriving in Ottawa, Lich cited allegations from King’s past and added that, while “we need him and I don’t care about his past … we have to control his rhetoric.”

Three days later, on Jan. 26, she texted Barber: “If he doesn’t stop now and right now he needs to go home Chris … Honestly I hate to do it. I believe part of his heart is in this for the right reasons but he will bring down this whole thing.”

The convoy protests involved groups and individuals opposed to COVID vaccines, mandates to take them, and health restrictions more broadly. Many participants spouted misinformation and conspiracy theories about the pandemic, as well as opposition to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government that included a dubious — and ultimately retracted — proposal to replace it through a deal with the unelected senate and Governor General.

Demonstrators occupied the streets around Parliament Hill for three weeks with hundreds of parked semis and other vehicles, as well as supply and cooking tents, bouncy castles, an inflatable hot tub, and a stage and industrial crane outside the Prime Minister’s Office.

The situation sparked controversy after a Nazi swastika and Confederate flag were spotted amongst the crowd. It also inspired border blockades across Canada as Ottawa police reported a rise in death threats against public officials and floods of calls that clogged local emergency lines. Ultimately, the federal government granted police and banks temporary special powers under the never-before-used Emergencies Act to deal with the crisis.

'Freedom Convoy' organizer Tamara Lich denied bail

“Ms. Lich’s involvement, in this court’s opinion, continues to pose a risk for the protection and safety of the public.”

Tamara Lich remains in jail in Ottawa after a justice of the peace found she breached a condition of her release when she exchanged congratulations with a fellow “Freedom Convoy” organizer at an awards gala in Toronto last month.

Lich, 49, was given permission during her last bail review to attend the June 16 gala, where she accepted a “Freedom Award” from the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms and sat at the head table with Maxime Bernier and keynote speaker Rex Murphy. Also seated at the table was Tom Marazzo, one of the many people Lich is forbidden from contacting as part of her bail conditions.

Lich was also pictured in a group photo from the event “arm-in-arm” with Marazzo, Justice of the Peace Paul Harris said Friday as her denied Lich bail and sided with the Crown in finding her in breach.

Lich’s lawyer, Lawrence Greenspon, had argued those actions were “so minuscule” that they were never intended to be covered by the release conditions and “ought not to be prosecuted.”

Greenspon also suggested that the contact between Lich and Marazzo would have been allowed because of the presence of Lich’s legal counsel at the gala.

“Ms. Lich has chosen to exercise her freedom by not following the court-ordered non-contact condition with Mr. Marazzo,” Harris said, pulling no punches in delivering his ruling to a courtroom packed with journalists and Lich supporters.

“And she does so in such a fashion as to flaunt her action under the misguided excuse of having her lawyers present. Even if Ms. Lich is able to provide proof of her lawyer’s presence, it’s important to reconfirm the spirit of the non-contact condition.”

Harris said the non-contact order was put in place to ensure there was no communication between co-accused persons, except when consulting with a lawyer in preparing a defence.

While Marazzo’s name is included on the non-communication order, along with Pat King, Tyson Billings and others, Marazzo has not been charged in connection to the demonstration.

“It is absolutely ridiculous to think that the intention of the (non-contact order) could be superseded simply by your lawyer’s presence,” Harris said, turning to Lich as she sat in the prisoner’s box. “Your detention is necessary to maintain confidence in the administration of justice. That is my decision.”

Assistant Crown Attorney Moiz Karimjee produced new evidence during Tuesday’s bail hearing with a series of text messages in which Lich discusses a “strategy to gridlock the city.”

Lich “clearly implicated herself” as one of the leaders of the ‘Freedom Convoy,’” Harris said in his summary of the Crown’s arguments Friday.

“The new evidence indicates Ms. Lich’s involvement as a decision-maker with respect to putting the nation’s capital in gridlock,” Harris said in his ruling. “And, as such, although the convoy protest has now ended, ‘freedom’ protests continue here in Ottawa and throughout other cities in Canada.

“Ms. Lich’s involvement, in this court’s opinion, continues to pose a risk for the protection and safety of the public.”

Harris also rejected arguments from Lich’s lawyers that she should have been allowed to sit next to Marazzo at the gala and to be photographed with him because her legal counsel were present at the event.

The JCCF has acknowledged funding her legal defence and the organization’s lawyers are representing Lich in related civil proceedings.

Harris called that a “faulty argument.”

“Ms. Lich chose to sit at her table or at the very least remain at her table with Mr. Tom Marazzo, in close contact,” Harris said. “No evidence has been provided by her defence to confirm the presence of legal counsel, nor the permission of legal counsel for Ms. Lich to sit with Mr. Marazzo and take a photo, arm-in-arm with Mr. Marazzo.

“Ms. Lich was given permission to attend the (JCCF) awards gala,” Harris said. “The permission given (by the previous judge) did not envision Ms. Lich sitting at a table with Mr. Marazzo, communicating with Mr. Marazzo — however inconsequential — and posing for a photo with Mr. Marazzo afterwards.

“Such actions most certainly erode the public’s confidence in the administration of justice,” he said.

Harris said the evidence showed that Lich “is not prepared to follow court orders and is prepared to do whatever she feels like doing.”

Harris said he took judicial notice of the chaos caused by the “Freedom Convoy” trucker protest, and referenced the “elevated gravity” of the offence. Lich is charged with counselling various related offences, including mischief, intimidation and obstructing police.

“It is the Crown’s belief that the objective gravity of the new information (the ‘gridlock’ texts) and this breach could result in a maximum sentence of 10 years,” Harris said.

Lich “was a recognized decision-maker,” and the judge said he found her actions to be “troubling in the face of the events of last February here in the nation’s capital …

“Her communications alone indicate that she may have been a leader of some sort, and it will be up to a trial court to determine how critical a role she played in the decision to gridlock the city,” Harris said.

“Like her co-accused, Ms. Lich will, at some point, have to answer to her involvement and her role.”

‘Freedom Convoy’ organizers discussed playing ‘race card’ with Métis heritage

Jul 9, 2022 | 8:03 AM
 
 By Canadian Press

OTTAWA — Organizers of the “Freedom Convoy” discussed using their ties to Métis identity to play the “race card” as part of an overall strategy to control their public image and garner sympathy for their cause, text messages suggest.

The messages between Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, obtained by Ottawa police and entered as evidence by the Crown in Lich’s bail hearing this week, indicate how acutely aware the organizers were of the optics of the protest.

The convoy’s connection to Pat King, who has spread racist conspiracy theories, as well as the appearance of Nazi and Confederate flags in the early days of the protest, prompted accusations that it was sympathetic to white nationalist causes.

While planning the convoy, Lich and Barber appeared aware that racial identity could be raised in criticisms of it. Lich has described herself as Métis, and on Jan. 20, about a week before demonstrators arrived in Ottawa, Barber texted Lich that his wife was Métis as well.

“It’s going to work in our favour,” replied Lich. “Playing the race card works both ways lol.”

That same day, Lich congratulated Barber on his interview on a podcast, describing it as very “PC”⁠ — or politically correct⁠ — “but also direct.”

Barber said to Lich on Jan. 22 that all of his years of “social media trolling” were going to pay off. “I’ll spin and use it all against them,” he said in reference to those critiquing the convoy.

The protest against COVID-19 restrictions and the Liberal government swarmed the capital’s downtown with large trucks, blocking streets and blaring loud horns for more than three weeks. Protesters also blockaded multiple border crossings. It all prompted the federal government to invoke the Emergencies Act and the police to use force to clear the crowd.

For their role in the protest, Lich and Barber have been charged with mischief, obstructing police, counselling others to commit mischief and intimidation.

Barber remains out on bail, while a justice of the peace ruled Friday that Lich had breached a release condition and revoked her bail.

At Lich’s bail hearing this week, Barber’s lawyer was granted a publication ban on court documents showing his cellphone communications, except for those with Lich.

Diane Magas, counsel for Barber, said the Crown’s submission may lack the full context or intent of the messages, and could be misleading or inaccurately interpreted. 

The 4,000-page document filed with the court says it includes all messages — numbering in the thousands — found on Barber’s phone. Dozens are directly between Barber and Lich, not including group chats.

Lich’s lawyer, Lawrence Greenspon, declined to comment on the messages outside court on Friday.

The conversations between the pair appear to illuminate their shifting feelings about King. He is known for boosting the white nationalist “great replacement theory,” predicated on an anxiety that white people are being replaced.

King remains in an Ottawa jail on charges of mischief, intimidation, obstructing police, disobeying a court order, perjury and obstruction of justice.

His lawyer has not yet responded to requests for comment.

On Jan. 22, Lich told Barber they need to have “a very frank discussion” with King, raising concerns about past allegations against him.

Despite these concerns, Lich also said he was needed by the movement — in apparent contrast to later statements in which the convoy tried to distance itself from King.

“We need him and I don’t care about his past but it only takes one,” she said. “We have to control his rhetoric. Not even threatening to throw snowballs at the parliament (sic)."

“I know he’s had issues. I’ve got skeletons in the closet to (sic),” Barber replied.

But a few days later, on Jan. 26, Lich said if King “doesn’t stop now and right now he needs to go home.”

“Honestly I hate to do it. I believe a part of his heart is in this for the right reasons but he will bring down this whole thing.”

On Jan. 29, the day after the convoy arrived in the capital, Barber messaged Lich about an interview King had done.

“I’m concerned he is putting us in a bad light. Is he supposed to speak today?? I’m nervous what he’s gonna say,” he said.

“No. He is not speaking. Period. We have people that will look after him,” said Lich.

A text message from Lich to Barber on Jan. 30 said she had received a call from the “command centre” that had a “strategy to gridlock the city.”

“Can you head over there with me soon,” she asked Barber. “I don’t want to make those decisions on my own."

During this period, some Conservative MPs cheered the arrival of the convoy, as the party opposed the Trudeau government’s vaccine mandates for federal workers and travellers. 

On Jan. 31, Tory MP Marilyn Gladu posted a photo to social media of herself and caucus colleague Candice Bergen at a restaurant with two men Gladu described as “hard-working truckers in Ottawa.”

Erin O’Toole’s reluctance to stake out a clear position on the protest was among the reasons a majority of his caucus ousted him on Feb. 2 and replaced him with Bergen as interim leader.

A couple days later, Lich wrote, “Candace Bergen (sic) wants to meet soon. What (do) you think?”

Barber didn’t directly respond to the question. The next day, Lich expressed enthusiasm for appearing on an American media outlet. 

“We must be on Fox at 6:30,” she wrote.

Christopher Martin-Chan, a spokesman for Bergen, said ultimately no meeting took place between convoy representatives and the interim leader.

Conservative MP Glen Motz had been speaking with Lich and was willing to act as liaison to have MPs listen to her concerns. He suggested meetings with Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino and Transport Minister Omar Alghabra, said Martin-Chan.

Motz confirmed he spoke directly with Lich “in an effort to resolve the ongoing protest,” and tried to facilitate a meeting with the ministers.

“Unfortunately, after several conversations with both ministers, they declined any resolution meeting with the protest organizer,” he said, adding he believes if the Liberal government had taken that meeting, the protest would have been resolved differently.

Alghabra’s office said in a statement that it was not “not appropriate or responsible to Canadians to meet with individuals who blocked our borders, hurt our economy, and terrorized the residents of downtown Ottawa.”

A spokesman for Mendicino echoed those sentiments.

After the ministers declined to meet, Motz said he tried setting up a meeting between Lich and Bergen, which Lich’s legal team declined as “resolution would only be beneficial if it included the government.”

Ottawa police, with help from police forces from across Canada, cleared the protesters out of the capital in a massive operation beginning Feb. 18.

‘Freedom Convoy’ organizer Tamara Lich ordered detained until trial

By Erika Ibrahim July 8th 2022
 

OTTAWA — "Freedom Convoy" organizer Tamara Lich was denied bail and will remain in custody after a justice of the peace ruled she breached a condition of her original release.

Lich is facing multiple charges of mischief and obstructing police for her role in the massive protest that gridlocked downtown Ottawa for more than three weeks last winter.

She is now facing an additional charge of breaching a bail condition after sitting with fellow protest leader Tom Marazzo at an awards gala in Toronto last month.

Lich's original bail ordered her to have no contact with several other protest leaders, including Marazzo, without the presence of her lawyer.

Police sought a Canada-wide arrest warrant for Lich for the alleged breach of her bail conditions and she was arrested last week in Medicine Hat, Alta., where she lives.

The onus was on Lich to prove appearing with Marazzo at the Toronto event did not breach the no-contact order. Justice of the peace Paul Harris said Friday that Lich did not prove that.

He has ordered her to remain in jail pending her trial, with her next court date set for July 14.

Her lawyer, Lawrence Greenspon, said outside the courthouse he will bring an application for a bail review to the Ontario Superior Court.

He said she is “obviously disappointed” with the result and eager to regain her freedom.

Greenspon had argued that Lich didn’t violate the bail condition because her lawyers were present at the gala where she was seen with Marazzo.

Several of her supporters were in the courtroom as the decision was read, with one woman openly weeping as the bail was denied. #TamaraLich #FreedomConvoy #AntiVaxxers

 She accepted an award at the event for organizing the convoy protest against COVID-19 restrictions and the federal Liberal government.

The lawyer also said Lich and Marazzo only had a brief interaction.

Both were key spokespeople of the winter convoy protest. Marazzo is also a leader of a group calling itself Veterans 4 Freedom, which staged several rallies in Ottawa over the Canada Day weekend.

Supporters of Lich gathered outside the courthouse on Friday waving Canadian flags. Several of her supporters were in the courtroom as the decision was read, with one woman openly weeping as the bail was denied.

OTTAWA -

The Crown is seeking to revoke bail for Tamara Lich, a leader of the "Freedom Convoy," after she appeared alongside a fellow organizer in an alleged breach of her conditions.

Lich was charged in February with mischief, obstructing police, counselling others to commit mischief and intimidation for her role in the massive protest against COVID-19 restrictions that gridlocked downtown Ottawa for more than three weeks.

She was released the next month with a long list of conditions, including an order not to communicate with key convoy organizers, including Tom Marazzo, and a ban from all social media, except through counsel or in the presence of counsel.

Crown prosecutor Moiz Karimjee told an Ottawa court on Tuesday that Lich breached one of her conditions by being seen with Marazzo at a recent gala where she accepted an award for organizing the protest.

He argued that she should be detained.

Lich's lawyer, Lawrence Greenspon, said he will contest the revocation of Lich's bail and seek her release with conditions.

Ottawa police Det. Chris Benson, who is the lead on Lich's case, told the court he reviewed video of Lich and Marazzo appearing together at the awards gala.

Greenspon asked Benson if he knew of any other evidence that Lich and Marazzo communicated before or after the brief interaction in the video, which took place in "less than three seconds."

He asked the detective if he was aware that some lawyers from the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms were present, some of whom are acting as her lawyers in civil matters.

Benson said he believed a photograph showing Lich, Marazzo and others posing together at the award ceremony shows that she breached her conditions due to her physical closeness to him.

Lich monitored the hearing remotely from an Ontario detention centre, watching on video conference and listening in from a cellphone, her blond hair in a high bun.

Both Marazzo and Lich were key spokespeople of the winter protest against COVID-19 restrictions and the federal government. Marazzo is also a leader of a group called Veterans 4 Freedom, which staged several rallies in Ottawa over the Canada Day weekend.

Police sought a Canada-wide arrest warrant for Lich for the alleged breach of her bail conditions and she was arrested last week in Medicine Hat, Alta., where she lives.

Benson said he oversaw Lich's transport from Alberta to Ottawa after she was arrested.

Lich is charged for her role in the "Freedom Convoy" along with a co-accused, Chris Barber, who remains out on bail.

On Tuesday morning, Barber's lawyer was granted a publication ban on court documents showing Barber's cellphone communications, except for those with Lich.

Recent Research by Tom Flanagan

Indigenous Spending in Budget 2022
— Jun 28, 2022
 

Thomas Eugene Flanagan CM FRSC (born 5 March 1944) is an American-born Canadian author, conservative political activist, and former political science professor at the University of Calgary. Flanagan has been on "research and scholarship leave" from the University of Calgary since January 2013.[4] He also served as an advisor to Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper until 2004.

Flanagan has focused on challenging certain historical interpretations of Native and Métis history. In connection with his multi-year research and publications on Louis Riel, Flanagan published a reinterpretation of the North-West Rebellion, defending the federal government's response to Métis land claims.[5] He began publishing works on Riel (leader of the 1885 North-West Rebellion) in the 1970s, which evolved into a multi-year 'Louis Riel Project' that he coordinated. During the 2012 provincial elections he served as the campaign manager of the Wildrose Party, an Alberta libertarian/conservative provincial party.[6]

As part of his political activism, Flanagan began to write as a columnist in 1997, and was published in media such as The Globe and Mail, National Post, Calgary Herald, Ottawa Citizen, Maclean's, and Time. He regularly made appearances on Canadian television and radio as a commentator.

 

Education and teaching

Flanagan was born on 5 March 1944 in Ottawa, Illinois, US. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana.[7] Studying political science under John Hallowell, Flanagan earned a Master of Arts degree in 1967 and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1970, both at Duke University in North Carolina.[7] He also studied at the Free University of Berlin.[7]

Flanagan began teaching at the University of Calgary in 1968 and co-authored an introductory Canadian politics textbook.[8] He served as Head of the Political Science Department and Assistant to the President of the University.[7] Since January 2013 Flanagan was on "research and scholarship leave" and officially retired 30 June 2013.[9]

Since the 1970s Tom Flanagan published numerous scholarly studies "debunking the heroism of Métis icon Louis Riel, arguing against native land claims, and calling for an end to aboriginal rights."[10]

Flanagan developed his concept of aboriginal orthodoxy in which he argued against aboriginal collective rights. He claimed that section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982, which stated that "The existing aboriginal and treaty rights of the aboriginal peoples of Canada are hereby recognized and affirmed" resulted in thousands of cases involving aboriginal and treaty rights – indeed thousands of cases including residential school claims. Flanagan decried the increased influence of the courts and "[t]he sheer volume of these cases" which threaten "to take policy-making out of the hands of elected representatives and put it into the hands of a small cadre of judges, lawyers, law professors, and expert witnesses."[11] Although Flanagan admits that he has profited as expert witness, he also believes that "[this] flood of litigation is detrimental to democracy."[11]

 

 Looks like another Black Day July South of the Medicine Line in Tommy Boy Flanagan's old stomping grounds EH???

 

6 dead, 24 hospitalized in Chicago shooting at July 4 parade

The police said authorities are still searching for the suspect and called it an active incident

The Associated Press
Kathleen Foody

HIGHLAND PARK, Ill. (AP) — At least six people died and 24 were wounded in a shooting at a July Fourth parade in the Chicago suburb of Highland Park, and officers are searching for a suspect who likely fired on the festivities from a rooftop, police said Monday.

Highland Park Police Commander Chris O’Neill, the incident commander on scene, urged people to shelter in place as authorities search for the suspect.

Hours after the shooting, with bystanders and media standing nearby, about a dozen officers suddenly dashed for a small office building half a block from where the shooting occurred — crouching at the glass doors, before flinging them open and rushing in, rifles pointed inside into a dark foyer. It was not immediately clear why the police had entered the building.

Lake County Major Crime Task Force spokesman Christopher Covelli said at a news conference that the gunman apparently opened fire on parade-goers from a rooftop using a rifle that was recovered at the scene. He didn’t know which building.

Covelli said police believe there was only one shooter and warned that he should still be considered armed and dangerous. He and O’Neill described the shooting as random.

Police have not released any details about the victims or wounded.

“This morning at 10:14, our community was terrorized by an act of violence that has shaken us to our core,” Mayor Nancy Rotering said at the news conference. “Our hearts go out to the families of the victims at this devastating time. On a day that we came together to celebrate community and freedom, we are instead mourning the tragic loss of life and struggling with the terror that was brought upon us.”

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker said in a statement: “There are no words for the kind of monster who lies in wait and fires into a crowd of families with children celebrating a holiday with their community.”

Hundreds of parade-goers — some visibly bloodied — fled the parade route after shots rang out, leaving their belongings behind. Video shot by a Sun-Times journalist after the gunfire rang out shows a band on a float continuing to play as people run past, screaming.

As of early afternoon, ominous signs of a joyous event suddenly turned to horror filled both sides of Central Street where the shooting occurred. Dozens of baby carriages, some bearing American flags, abandoned children’s bikes, a helmet bedecked with images of Cinderella were left behind in their haste. Blankets, lawn chairs, coffees and water bottles were knocked over as people fled.

Police, some in camouflage gear and many clutching AR-style weapons, continued to pour into the area.

Armed FBI agents in camouflage escorted a family with two small girls across Central Street hours after the shooting. The children looked visibly frightened even as their mother attempted to reassure them that the agents leading and flanking them would protect them.

“Don’t worry, you’re safe now,” she told them. “These guys will protect you.”

Highland Park Police initially said in a statement early Monday afternoon that five people had been killed and 19 people were taken to hospitals. but those numbers were revised at the news conference.

Gina Troiani and her son were lined up with his daycare class ready to walk onto the parade route when she heard a loud sound that she believed was fireworks — until she heard people yell about a shooter.

“We just start running in the opposite direction,” she told The Associated Press.

Her 5-year-old son was riding his bike decorated with red and blue curled ribbons. He and other children in the group held small American flags. The city said on its website that the festivities were to include a children’s bike and pet parade.
Troiani said she pushed her son’s bike, running through the neighborhood to get back to their car.

In a video that Troiani shot on her phone, some of the kids are visibly startled at the loud noise and they scramble to the side of the road as a siren wails nearby.

It was just sort of chaos,” she said. “There were people that got separated from their families, looking for them. Others just dropped their wagons, grabbed their kids and started running.”

Debbie Glickman, a Highland Park resident, said she was on a parade float with coworkers and the group was preparing to turn onto the main route when she saw people running from the area.

“People started saying: ‘There’s a shooter, there’s a shooter, there’s a shooter,”’ Glickman told the Associated Press. “So we just ran. We just ran. It’s like mass chaos down there.”

She didn’t hear any noises or see anyone who appeared to be injured.

“I’m so freaked out,” she said. “It’s just so sad.”

🇨🇦🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Dear Canadian friends and fellow campaigners!
Today is the 1st of July - Canada Day - the national holiday of your beautiful country.
I was very honored when I received an invitation from representatives of your courageous and steadfast freedom movement - the Canadian Freedom Truckers - to this year's Canada Day to join you all in the celebrations today in Ottawa.
But unfortunately, I was not allowed to enter Canada because my status as a consistent unvaccinated person prevents this.
Very much I would have liked to celebrate the holiday of the birth of your proud and freedom-loving nation with all of you in Ottawa today - but this way I send you at least my best wishes and congratulations by video.
And I know: One day I will nevertheless be your guest in person and we will - after the battle has been fought - celebrate the glorious victory of freedom and self-determination over the technocratic regime of the global elites with an unprecedented party. Let’s hold out until then, our goal always firmly in sight!
Kind regards,
Yours, Christine Anderson, MEP (AfD)

Hello,

You would be hard-pressed right now to find a person who doesn't have
an opinion on all that is happening in Alberta Politics right now. In
this period of uncertainty, faced with an ideological NDP government
pushing forward big government policy and record deficit, I want to
hear from you. As your representative I have taken an oath to
represent you and fight for the values of equity, fairness,
transparency, local decision making and choice in healthcare and
education - values that I know many of you share. It is imperative
that I engage all of my constituents to find out what you think the
future of Alberta should look like.

I have had many constituents approach me with great ideas and
insights. I am taking the necessary action to hear from as many of you
as possible by hosting 6 "Coffee Talk" events across my constituency -
what could be better than hearing your ideas and drinking some good
coffee? Please see the attached poster to find out when I will be near
your community in Cypress-Medicine Hat.  If you have any questions,
please don't hesitate to call my office at 403 528 2191.

Hope to see you there.

*If you wish to not receive these e-mails in the future, please send
us an e-mail and we will take you off of our list.

EDITORIAL: On Monday, vote ‘Yes’ to end equalization

By Derek Fildebrandt

Jointly written by the Editorial Board of the Western Standard

Albertans are a generous and patriotic people, but the exploitive nature of Canada’s fiscal federalism is turning many away from an unquestioning salute of the maple leaf. 

Since Canada’s centennial year in 1967, Alberta has contributed a net $600 billion more to the rest of Canada than it has received back in transfers and spending, despite our relatively small size.

Albertans make a net contribution of $15-27 billion in an average year, over $3 billion of which goes toward the $20 billion equalization program. Albertans pay another$3 billion (net) in the Canada Health Transfer and Canada Social Transfer more than is returned back to the province. 

All in, the average family of four in Alberta pays $20,000 a year in extra taxes that are sent directly to Quebec and other recipient provinces, after being laundered in Ottawa.

Many Albertans may not have minded this kind of charity in good times, but in tough times, Canada has not been there for Alberta beyond token trinkets. When Alberta needs to build pipelines to tidewater in order to keep producing the wealth that gets sent to others, many of those others stand in the way. 

Quebec – which receives more than $12 billion a year – has rejected the construction of pipelines that would transport what its premier calls “dirty oil” across her territory. The federal government – which is supposed to be the guarantor of the free movement of goods, services, and capital across all of Canada – has barely lifted a finger. In fact, the Liberal, Conservative, NDP, and Bloc Quebecois leaders have all promised voters in Quebec that no pipeline would be constructed there without their support. 

And what constitutes support? In British Columbia, the clear majority of people support pipeline construction, but governments have kowtowed to a vocal, radical minority. 

This is because Alberta simply doesn’t matter politically. Our economy is big enough to pay the bills, but our population is too small to decide elections. 

Alberta is underrepresented in the House of Commons and wildly discriminated against in the Senate, where we hold almost half the seats of tiny New Brunswick, but have twice the population of all four Atlantic provinces combined. When we try to elect our own senators, the federal government more often-than-not ignores the democratic will of Albertans. 

It’s time to fight back. The first big step in this is voting ‘yes’ to remove equalization from the Canadian constitution on October 18. To be clear, this will not actually result in the removal of equalization from the constitution on October 19. What it will do, however, is trigger a constitutional obligation on the part of the federal and other provincial governments to negotiate the issue, as the Supreme Court ruled in the Quebec Secession Reference case of 1998. 

In that case, the court ruled that if a clear majority of Quebecers voted ‘yes’ on a clear question of independence, then the rest of Canada would be constitutionally obliged to negotiate in good faith. Unspoken however, was the threat that in the event that the rest of Canada did not negotiate in good faith, that Quebec could make a unilateral declaration of independence; something that could only be circumvented by a military invasion of the province and the forceful deposition of its government; a prospect laughable in its improbability.

Alberta is not voting on independence however. It is voting on removing a confiscatory policy principle from the constitution. But what unspoken threat does Alberta have if the rest of Canada fails to negotiate in good faith? As yet, there is none. The Alberta government has pre-emptively taken more dramatic options off the table. This is a mistake. 

There are several organizations across Alberta that have done excellent work making the case for abolition, reform, and alternatives, including Fairness Alberta, the Alberta Institute, Project Confederation, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, FightEqualization.ca, and others. 

Missing in the campaign was Alberta Premier Jason Kenney. He has wisely decided to keep a low profile, knowing that his unpopularity could jeopardize a successful ‘yes’ vote. While some Albertans may wish to send the premier a message by voting ‘no’ to what they perceive as his pet project, this would be a grievous error. It would be cutting off our nose to spite our face. 

The project of an equalization referendum goes back well before Kenney even considered going into provincial politics, to a report from the old Wildrose Party’s Equalization Fairness Panel in 2016. 

There are positive signs that Albertans are putting the fight for a fair deal above partisan politics. A Mainstreet Research poll conducted for the Western Standard found that a 66% majority of Albertans intend to vote ‘yes’ on October 18. That poll saw that a majority in every region of Alberta – Edmonton, Calgary, rural north, and rural south – all intend to cast a ballot for change to the status quo. And while a majority of NDP voters intend to vote for the status quo, a sizeable minority of them intend to break ranks and vote with the rest of Alberta. 

A big ‘yes’ vote to kill equalization will not end those payments overnight, and frankly, they are unlikely to yield any reform whatsoever without a clear “or else” option for Ottawa and Quebec to ponder; but without it, we are endorsing the status quo of an exploitative federal system that is unworthy of Canada’s history. 

On October 18, we encourage Albertans to send Ottawa a message. On October 19, we encourage Albertans to make sure that our provincial government doesn’t let Ottawa forget it.

Changes to your Western Standard membership — and the return of the Alberta Report

Alberta Report Graphic

Last week we launched our new website, westernstandard.news. It's not just a pretty face.

Membership

In addition to the new, sleeker layout, it includes a significantly more advanced and secure membership/subscriptions system. Of course, this requires us to transition your membership, and that transition can have some hiccups. But to ensure we make this as painless as possible, we've hired extra staff in our Membership Services Department to help you.

In order to keep your information safe and secure, we do not store your password, so in order to activate your membership on the new website, you need to reset your password. Renewing your membership on the new website has no extra cost, and will automatically cancel your old one. 

If you are still having any membership or login issues, please email us at membership@westernstandard.news, or phone us at 866-479-WEST (9378‬). Our team will be very happy to help you with any issues you may have. 

Return of the Alberta Report & other new WS publications

Now to the fun stuff. The new Western Standard website has several sub-sections for our new publications. These new publications are all hosted at the new Western Standard website, but each one will focus on your own province. And don't worry, your Western Standard membership gives you unlimited access to all of them. 

The most anticipated of these is the return of the legendary Alberta Report. The Alberta Report was far and away the most influential news and opinion magazine in Alberta from its beginnings in the 1970s until it finally closed in 2003, after which it was replaced by the original Western Standard's print magazine. And just as we brought the old Western Standard magazine back to life as a digital publication, we are proud to return the Alberta Report to you online. 

But we are the "Western" Standard, not just the Alberta Standard. That's why we've also launched the West Coast Standard for British Columbians, the Saskatchewan Standard, the Manitoba Standard, and even (dare I say) the Ontario Standard. This will provide a homegrown source of independent media with a focus on your province that won't clutter your news feed with local city hall news from places you may not care much about.

More reporters, more news

We have radically expanded the size of our staff, bringing full-time reporters to new bureaus across Canada.

In Edmonton, we have hired Rachel Emmanuel as our new Alberta Legislative Bureau Chief. In Ottawa, we hired Matthew Horwood as our new Parliamentary Bureau Chief. In Regina, we brought on Christopher Oldcorn as our Saskatchewan Reporter. Also joining the team are freelance reporters Arthur Green and Jonathan Bradley. 

More opinion, and more shows

In our Opinion and Broadcast Division we have also upped our game. We have brought on David Krayden as our new senior parliamentary columnist. 

And in addition to our daily Triggered: With Cory Morgan Show, we have added the Danielle Smith Show four times a week (Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays).

Forward

The Western Standard has grown at a breakneck speed over the last year and a half, fuelled by a massive increase in the number of paid members.

As more people sign up, we reinvest those membership dues straight back into increasing the volume of our content, and improving its quality. We have in a short period of time built the Western Standard into one of the most-read news and opinion publications in Canada.

And we've done it all without a penny of the federal governments corrupt media bailout.

The interview took place after winning the JCCF's George Jonas Freedom Award and delivering her powerful speech (https://youtu.be/neU5oR3nAfA) and is her first since being released from federal prison. Due to state-imposed legal constraints and considerations in her own legal case, certain subject matter could not be discussed.

R. v. Pawlowski

TRIAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL CHALLENGE

Artur Pawlowski is well known to supporters of The Democracy Fund as a Christian pastor who has been repeatedly jailed and punished by the courts because of COVID-19 restrictions. One of the allegations against him is that he failed to comply with a public health order after attending a public protest on December 20, 2021.

Update: Our lawyers will be contesting Artur Pawlowski’s charges in a three-day trial starting on June 6, 2022. They have also filed a Notice of Application and Constitutional Issue arguing that the public order infringes on Pawlowski’s Charter rights to freedom of religion, freedom of expression, and freedom of peaceful assembly.

Another Perspective

The Spirit of Capitalism
Douglas Ferguson
Ayn Rand, Ludwig Von Mises, Adam Smith, Max Weber, Niall Ferguson, and
others never considered the metaphysical spiritual nature of
Capitalism.
To all the idea that Capitalism has a spiritual nature is ludicrous.
We all had the materialistic academic understanding of reality. If it
can not be measured it does not exist.
But Life is more than the material.
This book will introduce you to the competitive perspective between
the Humanist, Secular and Christian and how these transformed our
modern world.

>>
>> Police say Barry Winters, 62, made derogatory remarks about race,
>> gender, politics

>>
>> Edmonton police Sgt. Gary Willits of the hate crimes unit said the
>> investigation into blog posts targeting numerous individuals took more
>> than a year.  (Scott Neufeld/CBC)
>>
>> Blogs that led to a rare charge of promoting hatred were more extreme
>> than anything he's ever seen before, says an Edmonton police
>> investigator.
>>
>> "I've never seen such extreme hatred from an individual," said
>> Edmonton police Sgt. Gary Willits. "He just kept spewing and nobody
>> was safe from it.
>>
>> "He literally in some of these blogs was saying to kill people."
>>
>> After an investigation of more than a year, Edmonton police confirmed
>> Wednesday a CBC News report a day earlier that revealed Barry Winters,
>> 62, was charged with wilful promotion of hatred on a blog called The
>> Baconfat Papers and other blogs between 2014 and 2016. But police say
>> there's reason to believe the posts date back at least two years
>> earlier.
>>
>> Copies of the blog submitted for evidence by one of many complainants
>> in the case show the blogger repeatedly made derogatory comments about
>> numerous individuals across the country, including a number of
>> well-known politicians and LGBTQ advocates in Edmonton.
>>
>> The remarks don't exclusively target one particular group, but focus
>> on various factors, including race, gender, sexual orientation and
>> culture. Others attack individual politicians in various levels of
>> government.
>>
>> Willits said it's possible some people still don't know they were
>> targeted in the blog posts.
>>
>> Glenn Canning, based in Toronto, said there were dozens of posts on
>> Winters' blog between 2014 and 2016 about his daughter, Rehtaeh
>> Parsons. She committed suicide after she was sexually abused by a
>> group of teenage boys at a party in Halifax in 2013.
>>
>> Canning said he discovered his daughter and his family were the
>> subject of the blog posts after someone contacted him and told him
>> about them.
>>
>> It just broke my bloody heart in half to read that.
>>
>> - Rehtaeh Parsons 's father Glen Canning
>>
>> The blogs that focused on Rehtaeh were "just disgusting and sick,"
>> Canning
>> said.
>>
>> "It just broke my bloody heart in half to read that. It was cruel and
>> it is even crueller to know that the guy did it for no other reason
>> than he enjoyed hurting somebody."
>>
>> Canning said he was in touch with police over the past year after they
>> opened the investigation. He's glad police have finally laid a charge.
>>
>> "I've cried over this," Canning said. "When it happens to you over a
>> very personal thing, it affects you pretty badly."
>>
>> Marni Panas, an Edmonton-based LGBTQ advocate, said she was appalled
>> when she stumbled across posts on a blog suggesting she move to a
>> country where transgender women, like herself, are persecuted.
>>
>> You don't know who's on the other end of these keyboards.
>>
>> - Marni Panas
>>
>>
>> "You don't know who's on the other end of these keyboards.You don't
>> know what they're capable of and that instills a real fear," said
>> Panas, who notified police in 2016.
>>
>> Panas said she has experienced online hateful comments before, but
>> said it stood out that the blogger in this instance was from the same
>> city.
>>
>> She said she'd never met the the blogger, to her knowledge, but
>> wondered what would happen if she did.
>>
>> Willits said police began the investigation in early 2016, after they
>> received complaints about the blog posts. Collecting the evidence was
>> time-consuming and complicated, he said, because patterns of hatred,
>> threats and harm had to be documented meticulously.
>>
>> Willits said stating an opinion, a personal dislike, of something or
>> someone, is not the same as "intruding on others" and "uttering
>> threats."
>>
>> The charge Winters faces is rare. Alberta Justice said in an email
>> that province-wide, that type of charge has only been laid on three
>> other occasions since 2011.
>>
>> Edmonton police had to seek approval from the attorney general to
>> charge the blogger, who police say had a growing following numbering
>> into the thousands.
>>
>> The posts were filled with derogatory words and "dehumanized scorn"
>> toward people and identifiable groups, Willits said.

>> "Of course, it's tragic when anyone passes away and very sad, I think,
>> in this case," Wells told CBC News.
>>
>>
>> "I don't think there's any resolution," Wells said. "This person
>> hasn't been held accountable; only in the sense of karma, perhaps, if
>> you believe in that — the universe taking care of things on its own
>> terms."
>>
>>
>> Even though there will be no court hearing or decision, Wells is
>> hopeful the nature of the charge will act as a deterrent to others
>> using racist, homophobic or sexist language.
>>
>>
>> "When you cross that line from free speech to hate speech, there will
>> be consequences. That's probably the most important message out of
>> these charges."
>>
>>
>> Wells said he was shocked at the "hateful and horrific nature of the
>> comments," when he read Winters's blog over two years ago. Wells was
>> one of several people targeted with violent threats.
>>
>>
>> "I'm used to lots of issues being directed my way because of the work
>> that I do and in the LGBTQ community, but this really was beyond any
>> bounds of acceptability."
>>
>> Wells acknowledged that the threshold is high for police to lay
>> hate-crime charges, but he's hoping more people will report to police
>> if they suspect someone's behaviour falls under that part of the
>> Criminal Code.
>>
>> Wells said only one in 10 hate crimes is reported in Canada.
>>
>>
>> Statistics Canada data show the rate of hate crimes in Alberta rose 39
>> per cent in 2015, compared to a five-per-cent rise nationally.
>>
>>
>> The Alberta Justice and Solicitor General office said the charge
>> against Winters will be stayed before Aug. 4, which was to be
>> Winters's next court appearance.

>> Glen Canning's Insane Jihad Against Us Infidels!
>>
>> Glen Canning and his ex wife Leah Parsons have been waging a
>> relentless Jihad of sort against anyone that does not buy the "family
>> Parsons /Canning " propaganda about the life and martyrdom of "Saint
>> Rehtaeh of Parsons." Glen and Leah's Jihad against myself and others
>> has taken strange turn in the last few weeks. A few short weeks ago
>> seemingly one of the parents of the principles of the Rehtaeh Parsons
>> tragedy emailed me to complain the "antics of Leah Parsons and Glen
>> Canning." Glen Canning sent 7 emails and six obscene hate filled
>> epistles to my blog comments. Also Gen Canning made a threatening and
>> harassing telephone call to my wife's place of employment. And today
>> things got "curiouser and curiouser" when Mike Gorman of Halifax's
>> Frank Magazine emailed some questions for me, as he is reporting about
>> the Rehtaeh Parsons" media circus of the last year or so. Is Mr.
>> Gorman a mere shill for Glen Canning?
>>
>> One of the questions Mr. Gorman posed to me was, "was I going to
>> defend myself and launch a lawsuit. After I answered his query, it
>> occurred to me that "those four boys" vilified, slandered, outted by
>> anonymous, Team Parsons / Canning, and the Feministas, would have a
>> very good case to litigate against all of these parties. These lads
>> were never charged with a crime, never convicted, their identities
>> protected by law, were abused, exposed, threatened, and their lives
>> ruined by a "lynch mob" fomented and directed by Glen Canning and Leah
>> Parsons using social media.. It seems to me these people have been
>> grievously wronged and injured by the Canning, Parsons duo and are
>> entitled to considerable legal remedy. Glen Canning and Leah Parsons
>> ought to pay recompense to the collateral damage victims of their
>> "Holy War."
>>
>> Mr. Gorman was entirely ignorant of "Rehtaeh's Law, that deals with
>> cyber-bullying, harassment by posting, and distributing humiliating,
>> and or naked pictures on social media. The behavior that some say
>> drove poor Rehtaeh to suicide is now illegal. The ignorant Mr. Gorman
>> wondered what effect would Rehaeh's Father "suing" me under Rehteah's
>> Law would have on me. "Rehtaeh's Law is a CC of C section. So Mr.
>> Canning has no input in the laying of such charges. I further educated
>> Mr Gorman, that no one can "cyber-bully" Rehtaeh Parsons because she
>> is dead as a Mackeral. There are no naked or pornographic pictures of
>> Rehtaeh, nor of Mr. Glen Canning for that matter, if he is considering
>> saying he is a victim of a miscreant violating Rehtaeh's Law. In fact
>> I haven't harassed, bullied, sent unsolicited email, or communicated
>> with anyone. I write a blog. A blog Glen Canning frequently visits and
>> reads very much on his volition.
>>
>> Glen Canning and his ex wife Leah Parsons have been impersonating
>> people on the world wide web, harassing them, and threatening them,
>> because there is money to be made being "poor victims. And they would
>> NOT want or let anyone jeopardize that. Mr. Canning has NO legal
>> options, recourse, or means to shut me or others up.

>> Overstock's colorful founder has tales to tell about the Russia hoax
>> By Andrea Widburg
>>
>> Patrick Byrne, Overstock's founder, has long suspected that Obama set
>> up a police intelligence state that's been calling the shots in
>> American politics since 2015.  On Sunday, he pushed back against those
>> of Trump's legal advisers demanding surrender.  On Tuesday, he claimed
>> that Obama had blackmailed Hillary Clinton to own her politically.  If
>> that's true, what Byrne is saying can upend the American political
>> scene.
>>
>> The New Yorker profiled Byrne early in December.  Sheelah Kolhatkar,
>> who wrote the profile, thinks Byrne is probably as crazy as John
>> McAfee, with both given over to life-destroying conspiracy theories.
>> Kolhatkar plays fair, though, and cannot deny his brilliance.
>>
>>     Former employees describe a memory trick he likes to perform, in
>> which he studies a deck of cards for a few minutes and then recites
>> back the order of the cards, one by one. "When he's on, he's smart,
>> charming, complex, and brilliant," Marc Cohodes, who was once a critic
>> of Overstock and is now an investor in the company, told me.
>>
>> While Byrne may be eccentric, he's often right.  He was the first to
>> realize that investment firms and stock traders were colluding to
>> drive stock prices down.  He was accused of being paranoid, but the
>> financial crisis proved he was correct.  Additionally, while Byrne's
>> tales about his adventures sound like fiction, that doesn't mean they
>> are:
>>
>>     David Luban, a professor of law at Georgetown University who has
>> known Byrne since teaching him as an undergraduate, observed that
>> improbable things seem to happen to Byrne with remarkable frequency.
>> "He's a hard man to bet against," Luban said. "So many of his stories
>> that have seemed utterly incredible turn out to be true."
>>
>> Byrne's biggest adventure was his relationship with Maria Butina, who
>> was later convicted of acting as an unregistered Russian foreign
>> agent.  When she approached him, he was worried enough to report that
>> fact to the FBI and was surprised when the Fibbies were unconcerned.
>> Throughout their one-and-a-half-year affair, Byrne kept the FBI
>> apprised.
>>
>> Eventually, Byrne decided that the FBI were the baddies, and were
>> setting up Butina, who was arrested in July 2018:
>>
>>     By then, Byrne's suspicions about the F.B.I. had crystallized into
>> a belief that he had been part of a plot by high-ranking members of
>> the Obama Administration to commit political espionage, in an attempt
>> to control the next President.
>>
>> Byrne also claims that the Obama administration planned the Russia
>> hoax as early as 2015:
>>
>>     According to the government's version of events, the F.B.I. opened
>> Crossfire Hurricane, its investigation into possible ties between the
>> Trump campaign and the Russian government, on July 31, 2016, after it
>> found out that the Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos had told
>> an Australian diplomat that he'd heard that Russians had compromising
>> information about Hillary Clinton. Byrne claims that it all really
>> started a year earlier, when the F.B.I. became aware of his
>> relationship with Butina.
>>
>> We know that the government's account — that they opened the
>> investigation on July 31, 2016 — is a lie.  A July 28, 2016 Peter
>> Strzok text to Lisa Page refers to already open counter-intelligence
>> investigations.  Moreover, Clinton and the DNC had hired Fusion GPS in
>> April 2016 to investigate Trump's alleged Russian ties.  Byrne thinks
>> Strzok was an architect of the Russia hoax and used Byrne's
>> relationship with Butina to further it.
>>
>> Strzok denies all knowledge of Bryne and Butina.  As a reminder, this is
>> Strzok:
>>
>> Peter Strzok's creepy smirks freak out Twitter audience
>>
>> On Sunday, Bryne spoke about a meeting in the Oval Office and claimed
>> that Trump's legal advisers are betraying him by urging him not to
>> fight massive election fraud:
>>
>> Now Byrne has gone on record to say that he was part of a 2015 sting
>> operation that saw Hillary accept multi-million-dollar bribes from
>> foreign governments.  Byrne thought the sting was to reveal Hillary's
>> criminality, only to discover that it was to give Obama a hold over
>> her when (as everyone assumed) she entered the White House.  You can
>> see the video clip here in which Byrne explains that Obama had used
>> the Deep State to set up a blackmail operation.
>>
>> The big question is whether Byrne is a fabulist, whose utterances we
>> should ignore — or is he, instead, a brilliant, successful, connected,
>> often prescient man who's currently a voice in the wilderness and
>> should be taken very seriously?  I don't have an answer for that, but
>> his statements seem consistent with what we know about Hillary's
>> corruption and the Obama Deep State, including the FBI.

Police make arrests after anti-vaccine mandate army reservist leads march into Ottawa

4 people arrested in downtown Ottawa

Police arrested four people in downtown Ottawa Thursday after a Canadian army reservist previously charged for speaking out against COVID-19 vaccine requirements led a procession into the city and delivered a speech on "freedom" to a rapt crowd of about 1,200 supporters.

James Topp was charged in February with two counts of conduct to the prejudice of good order and discipline for comments made while wearing his uniform and has since been leading a four-month march to the capital from Vancouver.

His march has been supported by many of the same figures involved in the Freedom Convoy that snarled downtown Ottawa for weeks until police used force to end what they and the government described as an illegal occupation.

Not long after Topp's remarks, police said they were responding to a "situation" in the area and arrested four people over incidents including assaulting police officers. One officer could be seen pouring water into his eyes as a woman nearby yelled about police using pepper spray.

In a tweet, the Ottawa Police Service said it's investigating the incident, including reviewing video. Its initial investigations found that an interaction with an officer became confrontational and an officer was choked.

At the same time, however, members of the crowd continued to mill about happily and line up for photographs with Topp. Tourists and families were also wandering by the scene, appearing puzzled as they snapped pictures of the war memorial.

As the sun began to set, some protest attendees began setting off fireworks as officers looked on.

The arrests capped a day of activity in the capital as protesters held their first planned events of the Canada Day weekend. 

Crowd visits Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

Topp's arrival in the capital and promises of a new round of protests starting Canada Day have set residents on edge. Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson and the city's interim police chief, Steve Bell, have promised to crack down on any illegal activity.

Cheers and chants of "Freedom!" erupted as Topp arrived at the National War Memorial on Thursday evening. He knelt, weeping, with his hand on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier before he spoke to the crowd, thanking them for their support and urging them not to give up.

"I have met thousands of people in my journey from Vancouver to Ottawa and a lot of them have lost hope. They feel lost. They're angry. They've lost faith in the system. We've already started something," he said. 

"Heed the call. Assemble. Organize yourselves. Plan. What's the answer? Non-violence. Peace."

A long line of marchers, including at least one wearing a black armoured vest, snaked along the length of the park.

Earlier Thursday, Conservative leadership candidate Pierre Poilievre joined the final leg of Topp's march. Poilievre walked alongside Topp for about half an hour west of downtown Ottawa, where hundreds of people had gathered to see the army reservist.

Video of the meeting shows Poilievre expressing his opposition to vaccine mandates and citing to Topp a famous quote by then-prime minister John Diefenbaker about being a "free Canadian" when he signed the Canadian Bill of Rights in 1960.

The two also spoke about the divisions within Canada, with Poilievre saying: "People are desperate for hope. I think it's time to put this country back together, and heal the wounds and reunite our country."

A few hours later, hundreds of people gathered in a park south of downtown Ottawa for the final stretch to the National War Memorial.

At one point the crowd was treated to a speech by a man wearing a military beret and civilian clothes who denounced defence chief Gen. Wayne Eyre's order that all Canadian Armed Forces members be fully vaccinated. Members of the crowd booed loudly.

Poilievre's appearance with Topp comes as the presumed Conservative leadership front-runner has been accused of unabashedly cozying up to anti-vaccine protesters and other groups associated with the Freedom Convoy.

Tamara Lich, a leader of the convoy that gridlocked Ottawa in February, briefly appeared in court on Thursday after allegedly breaching one of her bail conditions. Lich, who faces multiple charges including mischief and obstructing police, will remain in custody until her bail hearing on Tuesday.

Many marchers declined to be interviewed, saying they did not trust that their words would not be twisted.

But Ottawa resident Richard Gervais, who was among the hundreds of people marching along the Rideau Canal to downtown Ottawa, called Topp an "inspiration to us all."

"Here he is, the most peaceful, the nicest, the most decent human being you could possibly ever want to meet, and he's walking across Canada to make a point," he said.

Gervais said his adult son was one of the hundreds of federal public servants forced to take leave without pay because he refused to get vaccinated.

While the requirement has since been suspended, "We never know when they're going to come back," said Gervais. "And we know that it can come back in the flimsiest of excuses."

Topp has said he has no plans to lead an occupation of the capital, and invited Ottawa police to work with him to facilitate his march through the city.

However, an organizer for a group calling itself Veterans 4 Freedom said in a recent video posted to YouTube that it plans to set up a semi-permanent camp east of Ottawa called Camp Eagle and hold events in the city all summer.

While police have since managed to prevent similar protests from taking over the city, stopping planned demonstrations from getting out of hand during Canada Day is likely to be complicated by the presence of thousands of people celebrating the holiday.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday said police are taking their responsibility to keep people safe during Canada Day celebrations "very seriously," while Ontario Premier Doug Ford called on those intending to protest in Ottawa to respect the law.

2 dozen MPs hosted Topp 

The charges against Topp relate to two videos posted online in the winter in which the army reservist appears in uniform criticizing vaccine requirements for military personnel and other federal employees.

Canadian Armed Forces members are severely restricted in the comments they can make while in uniform, particularly when it comes to criticizing government policies, in large part to protect the military from any perception of politicization.

His lawyer has argued such restrictions should not apply to policies that affect Armed Forces members personally.

More than two dozen Conservative MPs hosted Topp and other leading figures in the Freedom Convoy on Parliament Hill last week, posing for pictures, promising their support and listening to a lecture on the purported dangers of COVID-19 vaccines.

Topp told the MPs that he was marching in part to get all vaccine mandates repealed, as well as to demand the reinstatement of anyone who lost their job because of such a requirement and compensation for wages lost.

At the same time, he and the others raised the spectre of civil war in describing the state of the country.

Health Canada says only vaccines that meet strict safety, efficacy and quality standards are approved for use in the country, and the benefits of COVID-19 vaccines continue to outweigh the risks of the disease. About 85 per cent of Canadians have received at least one dose.

Freedom Convoy leader Tamara Lich to remain in custody over Canada Day weekend

Lich was arrested in Alberta on Monday for allegedly breaching her bail conditions

Freedom Convoy leader Tamara Lich will remain in custody over the Canada Day weekend after she was arrested this week for allegedly breaching her bail conditions.

Lich was taken into custody in Medicine Hat, Alta., on Monday after Ottawa police issued a Canada-wide warrant for her arrest. She was brought back to the nation's capital and made a brief court appearance Thursday.

Crown prosecutor Moiz Karimjee requested a full day for a bail hearing, which is scheduled to take place on July 5.

Lich remains in custody as several groups — most of which formed out of the Freedom Convoy — are planning protests in Ottawa starting on July 1 and continuing throughout the summer.

She appeared on video from an Ottawa police cell, wearing a grey sweatshirt with the words "Freedom Over Fear" printed on it.

Eric Granger, Lich's defence lawyer, said July 5 was the earliest date available.

"The only new charge she's been arrested on is a single charge of breaching a single bail condition, [she] will be on her ninth day in custody since her arrest before she even gets the opportunity to regain her liberty," he wrote in an email to CBC.

Lich faces charges of mischief, counselling mischief, obstructing police, counselling to obstruct police, counselling intimidation, and intimidation by blocking and obstructing one or more highways in relation to the protest.

The anti-COVID-19-mandate protest shut down some areas of Ottawa for three weeks as participants parked trucks and other vehicles on city streets, blocking access to neighbourhoods and main arteries around Parliament Hill.

Released in March

Lich was arrested on Feb. 17 and spent about 18 days at the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre before she was released on bail in March on conditions which include staying off social media.

She was subjected to a bail review last month, but prosecutors were unsuccessful in trying to have her brought back into custody for allegedly violating her bail condition that she not support anything related to the Freedom Convoy.

Lich also cannot organize any kind of protest and is not allowed to contact several of the other convoy leaders, including Tom Marazzo, unless in the presence of counsel.

While it's not yet clear which bail conditions she is accused of breaching, there was speculation online that Lich might be in legal trouble over a Facebook photo that shows her beside Marazzo at an awards ceremony in Toronto on June 16 put on by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), a legal organization and registered charity based in Calgary.

Tamara Lich, fourth from the left, was ordered by a judge to have no contact with fellow convoy organizer Tom Marazzo, second from the right. This photo shows the group in Toronto after Lich accepted her freedom award from the JCCF. (Facebook/Stacey Kauder )

Friends of the two convoy organizers speculated on social media that Lich was allowed to have contact with Marazzo at the event because lawyers for the JCCF, who also represent Lich in her civil matters, were present.

KINSELLA: Conservatives will pay dearly for meeting with vaccine critics

(Because the Liberal war room certainly will.)

Here they are: Marilyn Gladu, Arnold Viersen, Dean Allison, James Bezan, Melissa Lantsman, Dan Muys, Ted Falk, Leslyn Lewis, Alex Ruff, Jeremy Patzer, Jamie Schmale, Martin Shields, John Barlow, Ryan Williams, Warren Steinley, Damien Kurek, Gerald Soroka, Scott Davidson, Chris Warkentin, Corey Tochor, Tako van Popta, Cheryl Gallant, Kerry-Lynn Findlay.

Those people are Conservative Members of Parliament. On Wednesday, those MPs met with James Topp, Paul Alexander and Tom Marazzo in a House of Commons meeting room.

MPs should meet with people, right? So, they met with Topp, Alexander and Marazzo. Afterwards, there was lots of hand-shaking and posing for pictures.

Topp is a former member of the Canadian Armed Forces. Alexander is a former member of the Donald Trump administration. Marazzo is also a former member of the CAF, and taught at a community college.

Sounds fine, right? Sounds like the sort of people elected representatives should be meeting with.

Until you Google them, that is. All of those Members of Parliament named above have staff, paid for by us, the taxpayer. If their staff had spent just a few minutes Googling Topp, Alexander and Marazzo, here is what they would have found.

James Topp was a Warrant Officer who shot a slick video in February attacking COVID-19 vaccines — while in uniform. In the video, he acknowledged he was breaking the military’s rules, but he went ahead anyway. For that, he was charged with prejudice to good order and discipline.

Since then, he’s become much more vocal about vaccinations and COVID. He’s announced the creation of something called a Canadian Citizens Coalition, and the group plans a “rally” at the National War Memorial next week. That coalition, Vice reported, is led by the same people who illegally blockaded the Windsor-Detroit bridge, costing up to $6 billion in trade.

Topp has kept busy appearing on podcasts and the like. Among them is one supportive of Diagolon, an “accelerationist” group whose members are among those arrested in February for allegedly conspiring to murder officers at the Coutts, Alta. border crossing. “Accelerationist” are white supremacists who want to use force to create anarchy.

Tom Marazzo was a Georgian College instructor who was fired for attacking vaccines. He says he was fired for being a “free-range, organic person” (sic). Marazzo achieved notoriety during the Ottawa occupation as one of the spokespeople for the convoy types. When a CTV reporter asked about the large cache of weapons found with the Diagolon types on their way to the Coutts border crossing, he was assaulted. Marazzo, no less than the New York Times noted, defended that.

Paul Alexander, meanwhile, was a McMaster University professor who landed a job in the Trump administration. Alexander was a “science advisor” at Health and Human Services in the U.S. There, Alexander and his boss regularly attempted to censor Centre of Disease Control (CDC) documents that they claimed “undermined the president.”

Alexander has said that “there is no data, none, zero, across the entire world” showing COVID-19 transmission in children. In the U.S. alone, 13.6 million children have been sickened or killed by the virus. In Canada, 716,000.

In one infamous July 2020 email, Alexander said of children: “We want them infected … open up and flood the zone and let the kids and young folks get infected.”

Anyway, you get the picture. A few minutes of Googling would have told those Conservative MPs plenty about Messrs. Topp, Alexander and Marazzo, who — inter alia — have promoted lies and conspiracy theories and illegality about vaccines and COVID-19.

The Conservatives were damn fools to meet with them. And the MPs, and their party, are going to pay a deep price for it.

Remember their names.

Researcher broke embargo to leak BMJ paper to Trump administration

BMJ 2021; 372 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.n590 (Published 01 March 2021) Cite this as: BMJ 2021;372:n590

A medical researcher who took a political appointment with the Trump administration while working on a major international meta-analysis of potential covid-19 treatments leaked a preprint version of the research to senior government colleagues last year, documents released in a congressional investigation show.1

Paul Alexander, a former assistant professor at McMaster University in Canada who specialises in health research methods, wrote in an email to Stephen Hahn, commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), that the research lent support to a role for hydroxychloroquine.

The FDA authorised the antimalarial on an emergency basis last April under pressure from Trump, but revoked this in June, citing the drug’s “known risks” and stating that it was “no longer reasonable to believe” that it was effective against covid-19.

Alexander’s email came a month later, on 19 July, addressed to Hahn, deputy FDA commissioner Anand Shah, and health department press chief Michael Caputo, who had recently appointed Alexander as his scientific advisor.

“Hi Dr Hahn and Anand and Michael,” he wrote. “I share this submission (embargoed) so highly confidentially, please share with no one not even in people who work or report to you.”

He went on, “I thought of it long and hard as the group submitted last night to BMJ after revisions. I weighed the balance and this is so important and such an emergency and while I have not done this before and will not again, I share this embargoed so that you are primed of what we found if it could help your decision making to help the USA and the globe as the US leads the globe, rightly.”

Alexander appeared to reference his Trump support, writing, “You would know the one reason why I stand out among this group of some [of] the world’s top researchers which I am proud of and made the personal decision to reveal it.”

Reed Siemieniuk of McMaster University, who led the meta-analysis published in The BMJ,2 said that Alexander had contributed “very early on to the first iteration” as part of a team screening titles and abstracts. “Paul stepped off of the research group prior to contributing to additional updates, when at the same time he notified us that he had taken a position working for the US government.”

A note at the end of the article reads, “We thank Paul Alexander (who was an author in the previous version of this review) for input and early contributions.” Siemieniuk told The BMJ, “I was not aware of the breach of embargo until now.”

Neither the final published analysis, which appeared in The BMJ on 30 July, nor the document leaked by Alexander 11 days earlier recommended hydroxychloroquine as a covid-19 treatment or suggested any survival benefit, instead singling out the drug for its high rate of adverse events.

In his email, Alexander directed the FDA’s attention to a paragraph which appeared to suggest a reduction in mean symptom duration in patients taking hydroxychloroquine, but the finding is described as “low certainty” and the paragraph ends by saying “there was no other benefit and there was apparent risk of adverse events.”

There was no change in the FDA’s position following Alexander’s intervention and in October the US National Institutes of Health recommended against using hydroxychloroquine in hospitalised covid-19 patients.

Alexander lost his job with the health department in September, after leaked emails showed him peremptorily instructing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director, Robert Redfield, to make editorial changes to the agency’s flagship publication, Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.3 He did not respond to a request for comment.

Dr. Paul E. Alexander blasts Fauci over 'shifting goalposts' on COVID with Laura Ingraham

14,959 views
Mar 9, 2021
38.7K subscribers
AIER contributor Dr. Paul Elias Alexander joins 'The Ingraham Angle' to propose that Dr. Fauci is ignoring conversations about how to reduce Covid-19 deaths and other public health harms. He states, "Public health is not just about controlling infections; it's about chronic health also. We're going to have a lot of excess mortality in years to come because of these lockdowns." He also explains that "Fauci and the CDC are squandering a tremendous opportunity. They're doing a disservice to the American people. We have this report that came out about obesity being such a major risk factor. Covid exploits risk factors and Covid has exploited obesity in the American population, particularly among minority populations."

Freedom Convoy fundraiser and organizer Tamara Lich was arrested in her hometown of Medicine Hat, Alberta last night on a Canada-wide warrant at the behest of Ottawa police, on allegations she violated her bail conditions. Within the next week, Lich will be transported back to Ottawa. Police have not yet said what bail conditions Lich supposedly breached. True North's Andrew Lawton says the state continues to throw the book at her to dissuade others from taking the principled stands for liberty Lich has through the convoy and since. Convoy lawyer Keith Wilson joins The Andrew Lawton Show live to discuss.

Freedom convoy leader Tamara Lich arrested in Alberta, accused of breaching bail conditions

Lich told her lawyer she is expecting to be transported to Ontario in the next week

Freedom Convoy leader Tamara Lich has been re-arrested in Medicine Hat, Alta., for breaching her bail conditions, her lawyers have confirmed.

Lich was taken into custody Monday evening, according to Keith Wilson, who represents Lich on her non-criminal cases including a lawsuit.

Wilson, who spoke with Lich after her arrest, says she expects to be transported back to Ottawa in the next week.

Eric Granger, who is one of Lich's criminal defence lawyers also confirmed Lich's arrest.

Granger says he has no reason to believe his client has done anything wrong and is "looking to learn more at this stage."

"Based on everything we knew, she's been diligently complying with all of her bail conditions as was noted by the judge at her recent bail review.

While it's not yet clear which bail conditions she is accused of breaching, there is speculation on social media that Lich might be in legal trouble over a Facebook photo that shows her beside a fellow convoy organizer who she was ordered to stay away from by a judge. 

Canada-wide warrant

Lich faces charges of mischief, counselling mischief, obstructing police, counselling to obstruct police, counselling intimidation and intimidation by blocking and obstructing one or more highways for her role as one of the organizers of the protest that shut down much of downtown Ottawa earlier this year.

RCMP confirmed Lich was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for breaching her release order but did not have further information as the arrest falls within the jurisdiction of the Medicine Hat Police Service (MHPS).

The MHPS says it will not release information until Tuesday morning.

Convoy organizer Tamara Lich released from jail

4 months ago
Duration 1:11
Tamara Lich, one of the organizers of the weeks-long occupation in downtown Ottawa, was released from jail on Monday with the condition that she leave Ottawa. Lich was arrested Feb. 17 and charged with counselling to commit mischief.

The anti-COVID-19 restriction blockades gridlocked Ottawa for three weeks last winter as protesters parked trucks that blocked neighbourhood access and main arteries around Parliament Hill.

After her arrest, Lich was released on bail in March on conditions which include staying off social media. She cannot organize any kind of protest and she is also not permitted to contact several of the other convoy leaders, including Tom Marazzo, an ex-military officer, who also had a failed bid as an Ontario MPP candidate.

Lich was subject to a bail review last month where prosecutors unsuccessfully sought to have her taken back into custody for allegedly violating her bail condition that she not support anything related to the Freedom Convoy.

Weeks after she was granted release in March, Lich was notified she'd been selected as a recipient of a freedom award, handed out by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), a legal organization and registered charity based in Calgary.

Tamara Lich, fourth from the left, was ordered by a judge to have no contact with fellow convoy organizer Tom Marazzo, who is tagged as being second from the right. This photo shows the group in Toronto after Lich accepted her freedom award from the JCCF. (Facebook/Stacey Kauder )

The awards ceremony took place on June 16 in Toronto. 

The Ottawa judge ruled he would not revoke Lich's bail and instead, varied her conditions to allow travel to Ontario with a restriction that she be banned from entering the capital's downtown core.

Lich's reasoning for wanting to travel back to Ottawa is protected by a court-ordered publication ban and cannot be reported.

But on June 17, the day after the freedom awards were presented, Stacey Kauder, who describes Lich as a friend, posted a photo to her Facebook page showing Lich with her husband and four other attendees at the JCCF gala.

To Lich's left is a man identified as Marazzo, a fellow convoy organizer, who she was ordered to have no contact with unless her lawyer is present.

Friends of the two convoy organizers speculated on social media that Lich was allowed to have contact with Marazzo at the event because there were lawyers for the JCCF present who also represent Lich in her civil matters.

Governments, police, convoy organizers granted standing on inquiry into use of Emergencies Act

Individual protesters and federal Conservative party denied standing by commissioner

Governments of all three levels, convoy organizers and police have been granted standing in the public inquiry looking into the invocation of the federal Emergencies Act, but the federal Conservative Party and a number of individuals who had their bank accounts frozen have been left out.

Granting groups or individuals standing allows them certain privileges in the inquiry process, including the ability to suggest witnesses or cross-examine them. It also means they are given advance notice on documents being submitted into evidence.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the act on Feb. 14 — for the first time in Canada's history — during the Freedom Convoy. The act gave the federal government temporary powers to deal with the anti-COVID-19 restriction blockades that gridlocked Ottawa for three weeks last winter as protesters parked trucks that blocked neighbourhood access and main arteries around Parliament Hill.

Paul Rouleau, the commissioner heading the inquiry, wrote in his decision that the deadline to submit the inquiry report weighed on his final determination.

"I must keep in mind the practical realities facing the commission, including the strict timeline in which to complete the Inquiry," Rouleau wrote.

The federal government, the governments of Saskatchewan and Alberta have been granted full standing, while the government of Manitoba will be allowed to enter written submissions.

Key convoy organizers including Tamara Lich, Tom Marazzo, Chris Barber and Daniel Bulford have been granted full standing.

"Their contributions to the work of the commission are necessary, as they are uniquely situated to offer information to the commission and give firsthand evidence as to the goals and organization of the convoy," Rouleau wrote of the organizers.

The Ottawa Police Service has been granted full standing, while its former chief Peter Sloly will be allowed to produce documents and examine witnesses.

The cities of Ottawa and Windsor have also been granted standing.

Conservatives, individual participants denied

The federal Conservative Party and individual protesters are some notable exclusions in Rouleau's decision.

In his dismissal of the Conservatives, Rouleau pointed to the parliamentary committee reviewing the use of the act and said the inquiry needs to remain above the political fray.

"The political process that involves elected representatives from the various parties has a role to play in how the use of the Emergencies Act is reviewed and assessed," Rouleau said.

"There is also an important role for an independent non-partisan process. Both ought to operate independently from one another."

A number of individual protesters, including some who had their bank accounts frozen, were also denied standing in the inquiry.

Rouleau reasoned that individual protesters would have limited perspective on what unfolded earlier this year.

"By and large, their contribution would be limited to what they saw, heard or experienced from their particular vantage point as a participant or supporter of the convoy," Rouleau said, adding that individuals will be able to have their voices heard during public hearings.

The commission's final report must be submitted by February 2023.

‘Freedom Convoy’ organizer Tamara Lich to appear in Ottawa court Wednesday after arrest in Alberta

Lich has been arrested in Alberta in relation to her court conditions, Ottawa police said Tuesday

By Lex Harvey
Politics Reporter
Tue., June 28, 2022

Tamara Lich delivers a statement during a February news conference in Ottawa.

Tamara Lich, one of the best-known faces of the so-called Freedom Convoy, will appear before a judge in Ottawa on Wednesday after being arrested in Alberta for allegedly breaching her bail conditions.

Medicine Hat police say they arrested Lich in her hometown Monday on the basis of a search warrant that originated in Ontario for one count of failure to comply with a release order.

Lich appeared in Medicine Hat court Tuesday morning and will be transported to Ottawa, police said.

Lich has, along with fellow protest organizer Chris Barber, been facing charges of mischief, obstructing police, counselling others to commit mischief and intimidation, for her role in organizing the massive protest that paralyzed downtown Ottawa for more than three weeks in February.

After a judge initially denied her bail, Lich was released in March with a long list of conditions, including a ban from all social media and an order not to “support anything related to the Freedom Convoy.”

In an email to the Star, Eric Granger, Lich’s criminal lawyer, said Tuesday, “Only very limited information is available” on the arrest.

“Given that Ms. Lich continues to have no criminal record and her strong performance on bail was noted by the judge at her recent bail review where the judge removed some of the conditions that had been previously imposed, we look forward to learning more as information becomes available so that we can determine the appropriate next steps to be taken in Ms. Lich’s defence.”

In May, an Ontario judge ruled Lich could remain on bail until her trial after a Crown prosecutor argued she’d violated one of her bail conditions by agreeing to accept a “freedom” award handed out by Calgary-based organization the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms.

Ontario Superior Court Justice Kevin Phillips said Lich had followed her bail conditions and already had a “taste of jail,” which made her less likely to reoffend.

Phillips changed Lich’s release conditions to allow her to visit Ottawa, but not the downtown core. He kept the ban on Lich’s access to social media.

LILLEY: Tamara Lich nabbed for breach of bail while repeat violent offenders use revolving door of court system

We can’t have dangerous people like her taking photographs with other dangerous people and posting them online.

If we let that keep happening, chaos might ensue.

Lich was arrested again on Monday in Medicine Hat, Alberta, and is expected to be transported to Ottawa within the next week for violating her bail conditions. On Feb. 17, Lich was arrested and charged with mischief, obstructing police, counselling others to commit mischief and intimidation.

Without downplaying the impact of the freedom convoy on residents of Ottawa’s downtown core, those are hardly charges that would normally see this kind of action by police and prosecutors. Lich has no prior criminal record and has not been convicted of the charges she now faces.

Yet depending on who you listen to, police have either arrested her for being critical of the government – not something that should get anyone arrested – or for being photographed at an event in Toronto with another convoy organizer.

At this point, forgive me for laughing at the idea that either of these are considered bail violations. If we had a justice system in Canada that picked up everyone who broke bail conditions, then I might be prone to saying, that as a law-and-order kind of guy, I could support Lich being detained.

That’s not who we are though, and our system continues to release violent repeat offenders on bail with no regard for community safety. On Monday, I was at a news conference with Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Toronto Mayor John Tory where they lamented repeat offenders for gun crimes being out on bail to reoffend.

“Chief Ramer, or before him Chief Saunders, could tell you of many instances, not just one, where people are getting out on bail for example, over and over and over again, when they’re charged with firearms offenses, and that simply has to be changed,” Tory said when discussing the recent spate of shootings in Toronto.

Our paper has been full of such stories and will have more to come in the future I’m sure, but police and prosecutors are worried about Lich taking a photo with someone more than 400 kilometres away from Parliament Hill.

Just this week, Toronto Police were looking for a man in an assault investigation saying the man was wanted on six counts of assault, two counts of assault with a weapon, six counts of choking and six counts of breach of probation among other charges. In another incident, two men were charged in a robbery with robbery with a weapon, disguise with intent, conspiracy to commit an indictable offence and fail to comply recognizance, which is police code for out on bail.

Those are just two cases police revealed on Monday.

One of the worst cases I’ve covered involved two men, both with bail and court conditions upon them, accused of shooting up a child’s birthday party last summer. Three children were injured from bullets flying in that incident.

Yet Tamara Lich is the real threat to society, not hardened, repeat offenders who shoot up streets, commit robberies or repeatedly assault people over several months. Our justice system is not supposed to be political, but whether we’re talking about the Lich case or the recent revelations that Justin Trudeau’s government interfered in the investigation into the Nova Scotia mass shooting, it’s clear we have a government intent on making justice political.

Seems Lady Justice is peeking out from under her blind to see who is before her before deciding whether to enforce bail conditions.

'It's intimidation': Judge faces threats after Freedom Convoy hearings

'You feel vulnerable in your house, in your own home,' judge tells Radio-Canada

One of the judges who presided over the court hearings of Freedom Convoy organizers is speaking out after receiving threats considered serious enough to require police intervention, according to information obtained by Radio-Canada and CBC.

The judge in question confirmed that supporters of the convoy from Canada and the United States sent several offensive messages, but the message that prompted police to react threatened their physical safety, the judge said.

It's intimidation. It's trying to influence a court decision, and that's serious.
- Judge who is not being identified due to safety concerns

CBC has agreed to withhold the judge's identity to protect their safety.

"I thought, should I tell my children not to come home for a while?" the judge said.

"I changed my alarm system. I was advised not to take the same route every day," the judge added. "You feel vulnerable in your house, in your own home."

The judge believes most Canadians respect the justice system, but said a vocal minority is seeking to undermine it.

"It's intimidation. It's trying to influence a court decision, and that's serious," the judge said.

Supreme Court of Canada Chief Justice Richard Wagner expressed similar concerns in a recent speech in Montreal.

"The pandemic has forced many people to live online during lockdowns. And it is at times like these that lies and conspiracies spread like wildfire," Wagner said in French on June 9.

"As we have seen around the world, disinformation poses a real threat to democratic institutions."

The demonstrations that took place in Ottawa this winter stemmed in part from this disinformation, Wagner said. He encouraged people to "inform, instruct and educate" their fellow citizens.

Ministry silent on further threats

Ontario's Ministry of the Attorney General would not say if any other judges have received threats from Freedom Convoy supporters.

"It would be inappropriate for the ministry to comment on a potential or ongoing police investigation," wrote ministry spokesperson Brian Gray in an email to Radio-Canada.

He wrote that the ministry "takes court security and the safety of all those in our courthouses ... very seriously," and that local police or Ontario Provincial Police provide security "to ensure the highest level of protection."

The Ontario Court of Justice and the Ontario Superior Court of Justice both declined to comment, saying it would be inappropriate to do so.

CBC News reached out to a number of key figures of the weeks-long demonstration in Ottawa, but requests for comment were either declined or went unanswered. 

No charges have been laid in this matter. It's not known whether the investigation is ongoing at this time, and police would not comment.

Lawrence Greenspon won't say if he is being paid to represent Lich

'Everybody has a right to be represented under the law,' Lawrence Greenspon says

The lawyer representing convoy leader Tamara Lich says his latest high-profile client deserves to be well-represented, but Lawrence Greenspon won't disclose whether he is being paid or took the case for free. 

Lich, who was behind fundraising efforts that raised more than $10 million to support the Freedom Convoy protests in Ottawa, is charged jointly with Chris Barber with mischief, counselling mischief, obstructing police, counselling to obstruct police, counselling intimidation, and intimidation by blocking and obstructing one or more highways. 

She joins a handful of high-profile Greenspon clients. He has previously represented Mohammad Momin Khawaja, the first Canadian charged under Canada's Anti-terrorism Act, as well as former senator Mike Duffy.

"Some of the people that have contacted me are well aware of the fact that in the past I've represented alleged terrorists and murderers and people charged with sexual assault. That, I guess, in their minds is OK," Greenspon said.

'The reaction from strangers has been — I'm disappointed because you were this, that and the other in our community and I don't put that together with you representing Tamara Lich,' says Lawrence Greenspon. (Alistair Steele/CBC)

"But representing Tamara Lich who has no criminal record, is not charged with any violent offence, there's no weapons involved, there's no sexual assault — they seem to have a problem with that."

He said he swore an oath to zealously defend a person whose liberty is at stake.

"I don't have any difficulty at all in representing Tamara Lich. It doesn't mean that I agree with anything she did or didn't do. But it does mean that she's entitled to representation when her liberty's at stake," he said.

Lich was arrested Feb. 17, denied bail, but then released on March 7 on the condition she leave Ottawa within 24 hours, refrain from using social media and have no contact with certain co-organizers.

Everybody has a right to be represented under the law.
— Lawrence Greenspon

Diane Magas had been representing Barber and Lich, but is now just representing Barber. 

Greenspon is expected to challenge the conditions of Lich's bail, particularly as it applies to her use of social media.

"The reaction from friends has been, 'I'm not surprised, she's going to be well represented.' The reaction from strangers has been, 'I'm disappointed because you were this, that and the other in our community and I don't put that together with you representing Tamara Lich,'" he said.

"It's those individuals that really need to understand what the role of defence counsel is and how important it is that everybody has a right to be represented under the law."

Worked in oil and gas

Lich worked in the oil and gas sector in Alberta from 2017 until she was laid off in March 2020 "due to closures related to COVID-19," according to a sworn affidavit made by her March 2.

She and her husband moved to Harrison Park, Man., for work after he was laid off, but by November 2021 they were back in Alberta and working again.

She used five weeks of vacation time to come to Ottawa, where she was considered a key figure in the protests against COVID-19 health measures, according to the affidavit.

 In her affidavit, she said she would return to work following her release on bail.

Raised millions for convoy

In a separate affidavit filed in court related to a proposed class action suit against her and others, Lich said she was involved in the creation of the crowdfunding campaign for the Freedom Convoy on the GoFundMe platform.

She said she used a personal TD bank account, which had no balance, as the designated account to hold donated funds. 

An email address was set up to accept donations, which also went into a personal account belonging to her. At the time, she was the only person with access to the donations. 

When GoFundMe released $1 million of donated funds on Feb. 2, it did so into Lich's personal account she designated for the protest. 

Two days after sending her $1 million, GoFundMe said it closed the campaign, citing violations of its rules on violence and harassment, with all remaining donations being returned directly to individual donors. 

Lich said that the same day she received the GoFundMe money, a "hold" was placed on her account associated with the Freedom Convoy. She said the bank didn't prevent money from being deposited into the account, but funds could not be withdrawn. 

While she had access to the money provided by GoFundMe, Lich said she completed approximately $26,000 in transactions. 

She spent $13,000 on bulk fuel purchases and another $13,000 was "withdrawn in cash and utilized for various purposes," she said in her affidavit.

2 NDP candidates resign following 'unacceptable' online comments

Candidates were running in Ontario, Nova Scotia ridings

The NDP says two of its candidates have quit the federal election race with less than a week to go, promising to learn more about antisemitism.

Party spokesperson George Soule said Wednesday morning that Sidney Coles, running in Toronto-St. Paul's, and Dan Osborne, running in the Nova Scotia riding of Cumberland-Colchester, are resigning by choice, but the party supports their decisions.

Soule said they both agreed to learn more about antisemitism.

As first reported by the Toronto Star, Coles claimed on Twitter that Israel was somehow responsible for missing doses of COVID-19 vaccine in the United States last winter.

She later apologized for posting "unsubstantiated theories about vaccine supply linked to Israel," and said it was never her intent to indulge a "common antisemitic trope," the newspaper reported.

Osborne is accused of tweeting at TV personality Oprah Winfrey in 2019 asking "was Auschwitz a real place?"

He responded this week, from a different account, saying he has no memory of tweeting that, but apologized.

"I want to offer an apology. The role of Auschwitz and the history of the Holocaust is one we should never forget. Antisemitism should be confronted and stopped," he said.

WATCH | Singh reacts to NDP candidates resigning

'Their comments were completely wrong, and have no place in our party' - Singh on past comments made by two NDP candidates who resigned Wednesday

Duration 2:25
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh faces several questions about two NDP resigning. Sidney Coles who was running in Toronto-St. Paul's and Dan Osborne who was running in the Nova Scotia riding of Cumberland-Colcheste have promised to learn more about anti-Semitism after some of their past comments resurfaced.

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh called the messages "unacceptable."

"I want to be very clear: their comments were completely wrong and have no place in our party," he said during a campaign stop in Essex, Ont., on Wednesday morning.

"Those messages were completely unacceptable and the right decision was made."

Green Party Leader Annamie Paul, herself Jewish, said antisemitism is on the rise and applauded those who raised concerns about the two candidates' tweets.

"It is gratifying to know there are those who are going to raise their voice, because we have said many times that silence is the thing that emboldens hate," she said during a stop in Kitchener, Ont.

"When you see it, call it out."

Conservatives, Liberals have also lost candidates

The other two main parties have also lost candidates embroiled in scandal on the campaign trail.

Over the weekend, the Conservatives dumped their candidate in the Toronto riding of Beaches–East York after past Islamophobic tweets surfaced.

Just yesterday, a Conservative candidate in the western Quebec riding of Pontiac apologized for sharing two racist jokes on Facebook. He remains on the Conservative slate, according to the Ottawa Citizen.

Speaking Wednesday in Jonquiere, Que, O'Toole said he has a zero tolerance policy for racism.

"Every single one of our candidates is running on a positive vision for the future of this country and a positive vision to bring people together," O'Toole said when asked about the candidate.

"I'm very proud to say we have the most diverse slate of candidates that we've ever had, the most women, and we're all singularly focused on Canada's recovery plan."

At the start of the campaign, another Conservative Party candidate, Troy Myers, stepped out of the race in a Nova Scotia riding following an allegation from a woman who says he sexually assaulted her at a work conference in 2019. He denies the allegation.

Former Liberal candidate and incumbent Raj Saini stepped down from the race in the Ontario riding of Kitchener Centre after allegations of sexual harassment were made against him. Saini has denied all the allegations as "unequivocally false."

Because his name is still on the ballot, Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau said he would not welcome back Saini in his caucus if he wins the seat, and he would not be able to sit as a Liberal in the House of Commons.

Disgust growing over vaccine protesters' Holocaust comparisons

Demonstrators seen wearing yellow stars, holding pictures of Anne Frank

Alistair Steele · CBC News ·
A protester in Calgary last week holds a picture of Anne Frank, while another wears a yellow star. Jewish Canadians say such comparisons between COVID-19 vaccine mandates and the plight of European Jews during the Second World War are both disturbing and dangerous. (Anis Heydari/CBC)

At the National Holocaust Monument in Ottawa on Tuesday, they gathered to remember the Babi Yar massacre.

Over two days in late September 1941, nearly 34,000 Jewish men, women and children were herded through the streets of Kyiv in Nazi-occupied Ukraine, stripped of their clothing and forced into a narrow ravine where they were mown down with machine guns. Dead and wounded alike were then buried where they lay.

At the solemn ceremony, which happened the same day provincial officials unveiled details of Ontario's vaccine passport system, there was little sympathy for those who have been protesting against such passports and vaccine mandates — some comparing themselves to victims of Nazi brutality.

"It's a total desecration of the memory of … those that were killed during the Holocaust," said prominent Ottawa lawyer Lawrence Greenspon, who co-chaired Tuesday's commemoration. "It's incredibly insulting."

The comparisons are "vile," agreed Andrea Freedman, CEO of the Jewish Federation of Ottawa.

"They're dangerous, and they're a gross and wilful distortion of history," she told CBC News.

Ottawa lawyer Lawrence Greenspon said it's 'incredibly insulting' for protesters to make such comparisons to the plight of European Jews during the Holocaust. (Alistair Steele/CBC)

"It's offensive. It's offensive to the survivors, and it's offensive to the memory of the six million people who were systematically murdered."

It's difficult to say whether the sentiment is widespread among the protesters, or representative of an extreme fringe. Protesters wearing yellow stars like those Jews were forced to wear in Nazi-occupied Europe have been seen at demonstrations across Canada.

At a demonstration in Calgary last week, one protester held a picture of Anne Frank, the teenage diarist who died in a Nazi concentration camp.

One internet meme making the rounds shows two forearms, one wearing a proof-of-vaccination bracelet at a baseball game, the other bearing a six-digit tattoo from a concentration camp.

"Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it," the caption reads.

But CBC News spotted no sign of demonstrators comparing their cause to the plight of Jews during the Second World War when about 50 gathered on Monday near the Civic campus of The Ottawa Hospital.

Speakers at a ceremony on Tuesday at Ottawa's National Holocaust Monument cautioned against forgetting the lessons of history. (Alistair Steele/CBC)

Freedman rejects any such comparisons as not only wrong-headed, but potentially dangerous.

"There can be absolutely no comparison between torture and persecution, to getting a vaccine or wearing a mask, and quite frankly making such comparisons just trivializes the horrors of the [Holocaust]," she said.

For Freedman, that distortion is linked both to a general and growing ignorance about the Holocaust.

"It's a lack of knowledge, it's a lack of education and it's a wilful ignorance of understanding the complexities of history," she said.

That's particularly true when it comes to hospital protesters comparing themselves to Frank, who's believed to have died of typhus.

"The irony of this is that Anne Frank perished from a treatable disease," Freedman said.

Increasingly, politicians are speaking out against such comparisons, too.

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson called them "unbelievable and appalling."

"Please think about the millions of Jews and others murdered and tortured and stop using this analogy," he wrote on Twitter last week.

"I really wish there was a way that we could stop it from happening, but I don't think that the criminal law is at current equipped to be able to do that," said Greenspon.

At the commemoration on Tuesday, several speakers alluded to a key lesson of the Holocaust: that such evil is only made possible when others look away. For that reason, Freedman says everyone has a duty to denounce such comparisons.

"We can't stay silent," she said. "That is one of the lessons of the Holocaust, is you can't stay silent."

Thank you again for writing to the Minister. Please do not reply to
