This is a fun story about confused Canadians. I'll bet we get more installments of this one:
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/tamara-lich-bail-hearing-february-19-1.6358307
"No bail decision yet for Tamara Lich, convoy protest organizer
Lich told court she has few assets and her bank accounts have been frozen"
"Lich has been a major player in the demonstrations in Canada's capital, which have lasted for more than three weeks and have attracted
international attention.
Ottawa police said Saturday they had made 170 arrests and towed 53
vehicles out of the occupation zone.
Dwayne Lich has been proposed to act as her surety, meaning he would
have to report if she breached any bail conditions.
In his testimony, he said he flew to Ottawa on Feb. 2 on a private jet
at a cost of $5,000, paid for by a "nice gentleman" named Joseph that
he'd only recently met.
"But he told me that my plane ride was taken care of, which was a
miracle," he told the court.
The Crown questioned Dwayne Lich on his ability to serve as surety,
given he'd been in Ottawa throughout much of the protests while his wife
had been recorded telling protesters to "Hold the line at all costs."
While he said he didn't believe in the blockades or holding the line,
Dwayne Lich also said he didn't see anything wrong, equating the
blockades to a large traffic jam or parked cars in a snow storm.
"I don't see no guns. I don't see anything criminal as far as I can see.
I just see trucks parked," he said.
He also questioned whether the Emergencies Act — which was debated Saturday in the House of Commons — was implemented legally, at times confusing the numbered amendments found in the U.S. Constitution with Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
"Honestly? I thought it was a peaceful protest and based on my first amendment, I thought that was part of our rights," he told the court.
"What do you mean, first amendment? What's that?" Judge Julie Bourgeois asked him.
"I don't know. I don't know politics. I don't know," he said. "I wasn't supportive of the blockade or the whatever, but I didn't realize that it
was criminal to do what they were doing. I thought it was part of our freedoms to be able to do stuff like that.""

Must be hard when they finally realize our constitution is not covering them, what a pityThe whole thing is wonderfully idiotic, but I don't think these
folks are as stupid as they pretend to be. I got to wondering what sort
of "leader" Tamara Lich was, and how you become a leader of the
"Trucker" convoy when you probably have zero hours behind the wheel? And
how does a free ride to Ottawa in a private jet "miraculously" land in
your lap when you talk like you're as dumb as a box of rocks?
It turns out she's just about what you would expect for a player
on the far right. She's got a lot of free time and a big mouth.
https://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/who-is-tamara-lich-the-spark-that-lit-the-fire
"Who is Tamara Lich — the 'spark that lit the fire'
Lich resigned from the Maverick Party this week to devote herself full
time to the "Freedom Convoy" protest."
"Tamara Lich, the main speaker at a protest media briefing in Ottawa Thursday afternoon, is one of the organizers of the controversial and currently frozen GoFundMe campaign that has raised more than $10-million
for the demonstration. Lich was also involved with the Canadian “Yellow Vest” protests and the smaller “United We Roll” truckers’ protest convoy
of 2019."
"Petite, blond and standing barely five feet tall, Lich is a former
fitness instructor and sings and plays guitar in a Medicine Hat bar band called Blind Monday. She is a mother, grandmother and claims Métis heritage.
The Saskatchewan native was living in Medicine Hat when she became politically active three years ago with Wexit, which later merged into
the Wildrose Independence Party of Alberta. When Lich and her husband
moved to Manitoba, she left Wildrose and joined the fringe and fledgling Maverick Party as an original member of its governing council."
"Maverick, under its interim leader Jay Hill, a former cabinet minister
in the Stephen Harper government, advocates for Western interests,
vowing in its guiding principles “that every vote in the House of
Commons by our MPs must be put to one simple test: Is our support, or opposition, good for the West and our citizens.”
Lich resigned from Maverick this week to devote herself full time to the “Freedom Convoy” protest.
In a 2020 profile in the Medicine Hat News, Lich described the reasons
for her political disenchantment."

"OTTAWA, Ontario -- A judge on Tuesday denied bail to one of the leading organizers behind protests against COVID-19 restrictions and Prime
Minister Justin Trudeau.
Ontario Court Justice Julie Bourgeois said she believed there was a substantial likelihood that Tamara Lich would reoffend if released."
