Ottawa Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich was granted bail on Monday after a Superior Court of Ontario justice overturned a prior judge’s decision to keep her in jail.
Lich was arrested by Ottawa Police on Feb. 17 after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act and a joint police force brought the convoy demonstrations to an end.
According to Justice John Johnston, the prior judge overseeing the case made a legal error when ruling to keep Lich behind bars. On Feb. 22, Justice Julie Bourgeois denied Lich bail, citing the possibility that she would reoffend and that her release would harm the integrity of the justice system.
