On Thursday, Justice Heather Perkins-McVey, the federal judge overseeing the trial of Canadian “Freedom Covoy” leaders Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, delivered her verdict.

The two organizers were each charged with six counts, including mischief, obstruction, intimidation, and counseling others to commit mischief and intimidation.

Ottowa Citizen reported: 

Lich and Barber were also found not guilty of obstructing police and counselling someone to obstruct police. Both were arrested without incident ahead of a mass police enforcement operation that began on Feb. 18, 2022, to end the protest entirely.

Barber was found guilty of counselling others to disobey a court order for telling people to ignore an injunction issued by a judge directing convoy participants to stop honking their truck horns in downtown Ottawa. Lich was not charged with that offence.

Another charge of counselling others to commit mischief was stayed at the request of the Crown because it was no longer necessary due to the mischief conviction. Justice Perkins-McVey had enough evidence to render a guilty verdict.

Maxime Bernier, the leader of The People’s Party of Canada decried the verdict.

Bernier wrote on X, “It is disheartening to learn that two of the heroes of the Freedom Convoy, @LichTamara and @ChrisBarber1975, have been found guilty of mischief in the longest and one of the costliest trials in Canadian history.”

“This clearly was a political witch hunt.”

“Meanwhile, Trudeau and his ministers who illegally invoked the Emergencies Act and violated basic rights will go unpunished.”

“Our justice system is corrupt to the bones.”

In 2022, an estimated 50,000 Canadian truckers traveled across Canada in a massive caravan to protest COVID mandates.

The Court will reconvene on April 16 to set a sentencing date.
