'Freedom Convoy' leader Tamara Lich to be released from custody

An Ontario judge has ruled that Tamara Lich, a high-profile organizer of the "Freedom Convoy" protest, be released from jail following a bail review.
The judge found that the previous judge who denied Lich bail made errors in law. The Alberta resident is being released on $25,000 in bonds and must leave Ottawa within 24 hours and Ontario within 72 hours.
Lich was arrested Feb. 17 and has remained in custody after initially being denied bail. Lich spearheaded a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for the convoy, which was shut down after raising more than $10 million. The Medicine Hat, Alta. native is charged with counselling to commit mischief.
Justice John Johnston said in his decision that in denying Lich bail two weeks ago, Justice Julie Bourgeous erred when weighing the seriousness of Lich's charges by comparing them to the seriousness of the impact of the "Freedom Convoy" and not to other criminal code offences.
Lich, 49, Johnston noted, had lived a "pro-social" life prior to these charges and had no criminal record, suggesting that these factors may be grounds for a lighter sentence, should Lich be convicted. Johnston was concerned that Lich could spend more time in pre-trial custody than a sentence might deliver.
He was also convinced that Lich's new surety, a relative who cannot be identified under a publication ban, would provide adequate supervision. Lich's first surety, her husband, was found to be unreliable, but the new surety was deemed to be credible.
Lich must abide by several conditions. She must leave Ottawa within 24 hours of her release from custody and must leave Ontario within 72 hours, keeping in contact with the Ottawa Police Service daily as she returns to Alberta. She may not return to Ontario except to attend court or to meet with her lawyers, and she must inform Ottawa police if and when she returns to the province.
Lich is also prohibited from accessing or using social media, or having anyone use it on her behalf. She also cannot attend or engage in any future protests of COVID-19 mandates. Lich's surety must have easy and regular access to her electronic devices to ensure this. She is also prohibited from being in contact with several other organizers or leaders of the convoy movement.
During last week's bail review, an argument was put forward in regard to the previous judge who denied Lich bail. Lich argued that had she known of Justice Julie Bourgeois's unsuccessful run as a federal Liberal Party candidate in 2011, she would have asked Bourgeois recuse herself because the "Freedom Convoy" was a protest against the current Liberal government.
On Monday, Johnston said he found no evidence that a federal Liberal candidacy more than a decade ago was proof of bias and rejected the argument, cautioning that such allegations are serious and should come with strong evidence.
Over the weekend, several pro-convoy demonstrators protested outside the Ottawa-Carleton Detention Centre, demanding Lich's release, as well as the release of other convoy organizers who remain in custody.

Yes I think her first surety was her husband, but the judge lost much trust in his abilities when he asked about his first amendment, lol.Quote:
