2022 Ottawa protest organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber face trial for mischief, intimidation, and counselling others to commit crimes.

The criminal trial of Freedom Convoy organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, accused of mischief, intimidation, and counselling others to commit crimes for their roles in the 2022 Ottawa protests, is nearing its sixth day of closing arguments. The trial, initially scheduled for 16 days, has been extended almost a year due to complex legal arguments, a large volume of evidence, and disclosure delays. Lich's legal team is expected to complete final submissions today before the Crown has a chance to respond.
