A court in Ottawa is expected to hear from additional members of city's police service Wednesday on the second day of the trial of two key 'Freedom Convoy' organizers.
The court viewed a 12-minute video compilation of footage shot by police body cameras as well as drones that captured the honking and atmosphere as hundreds of protesters blocked downtown Ottawa streets for three weeks in the winter of 2022.It was the first of many videos the Crown anticipates showing in court including some videos taken by Lich and Barber themselves.
Lawyers for both Lich and Barber took issue during the first day of trial with the Crown’s use of the term “occupation” to characterize the protest, saying it was not only inaccurate but insensitive to people past and present who have under lived occupied control.
