Co-organizer of Freedom Convoy 2022 Chris Barber was arrested and is expected to be charged criminally. Some predict he will be made an example of and overcharged.
A lawyer for the group, Keith Wilson, said Mr. Barber was arrested on allegations that included counseling to commit mischief and obstruction of justice. Ms. Lich was charged with counseling mischief, he added.
Barber was listed as one of three protest organizers in a class-action lawsuit filed with the Ontario Supreme Court. The lawsuit was filed by lawyer Paul Champ on behalf of his client, 21-year-old public servant Zexi Li.
The suit also names other organizers Tamara Lich and Benjamin Dichter.

The lawyer representing the residents of Ottawa in the lawsuit against the truckers said the “loud and prolonged honking” is causing physical harm to the residents.
The verbal attacks on the truckers’ characters are heating up and the police appear ready to enact a plan of some kind. Numerous truckers have had their accounts frozen and threats were lodged against donors, even in the US.
