CTV News reports:
Tamara Lich, one of the most visible organizers behind protests against COVID-19 restrictions and the Liberal government near Parliament Hill, was denied bail Tuesday. Justice Julie Bourgeois said the convoy’s effect on the community was immense and she felt Lich was obstinate and disingenuous in her responses to the court.
“I cannot be reassured that if I release you into the community that you will not re-offend,” Bourgeois said. “Your detention is necessary for the protection and safety of the public.” Lich was arrested last Thursday and charged with counselling to commit mischief.
Read the full article. Right wingers on Twitter are going after the judge. Expect reports on death threats soon.
