First civilian witness testifies in the criminal trial of protest organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber
Local Ottawa resident Sarah Gawman told an Ottawa courtroom today that the sound of horn honking during the Freedom Convoy was incessant and intolerable.Gawman is the first civilian witness to testify in the criminal trial of protest organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber.She says she lived in a highrise condo building downtown Ottawa when the protest began last year, and trucks and other vehicles lined up in her neighbourhood as far as the eye could see.
The Crown intends to call five local residents as part of its case, as well as an employee for the National Arts Centre and an employee for OC Transpo, the local public-transit operator. The Crown says it plans to ask the witnesses about the turmoil they observed during the protest, in an effort to tie disruptions to Lich and Barber.
Justice Heather Perkins-McVey says she will make sure the witnesses stick to the things they observed first-hand, and won’t allow them to stray into the ways the protest affected them personally.Fellow organizer identified Tamara Lich as president of Freedom Convoy in video, trial hearsPostmedia is committed to maintaining a lively but civil forum for discussion and encourage all readers to share their views on our articles.
