(LifeSiteNews) – Reflecting on her recent sentencing of over a year’s house arrest for her role in the 2022 Freedom Convoy, Tamara Lich laid bare the fact that when all is said in done seven years of her life will have been spent in a government-imposed “lockdown” in one form or another.
Last Friday on X, Lich wrote, “I did the math this morning.”
“Between the ‘pandemic,’ our bail conditions, and now our sentence, @ChrisBarber1975 and I will have been in lockdown, in one form or another, for a total of seven years by the time we complete our sentences,” she noted.
Last week as well, Lich launched what she called her “house arrest” podcast, with her fellow co-leader of the Freedom Convoy Chris Barber. The pair spent over an hour talking about their recent sentence, as well as the state of affairs in Canada.
On October 7, Ontario Court Justice Heather Perkins-McVey sentenced Lich and Chris Barber to 18 months’ house arrest after being convicted earlier in the year convicted of “mischief.”
Lich was given 18 months less time already spent in custody, amounting to 15 1/2 months.
As reported by LifeSiteNews, the Canadian government was hoping to put Lich in jail for no less than seven years and Barber for eight years for their roles in the 2022 protests against COVID mandates.
Interestingly, Perkins-McVey said about Lich and Barber during the sentencing, “They came with the noblest of intent and did not advocate for violence.”
LifeSiteNews recently reported that Lich detailed her restrictive house arrest conditions, revealing she is “not” able to leave her house or even pick up her grandkids from school without permission from the state.
As reported by LifeSiteNews, Lich, reflecting on her recent house arrest verdict, said she has no “remorse” and will not “apologize” for leading a movement that demanded an end to all COVID mandates.
In early 2022, the Freedom Convoy saw thousands of Canadians from coast to coast come to Ottawa to demand an end to COVID mandates in all forms. Despite the peaceful nature of the protest, Trudeau’s government enacted the never-before-used Emergencies Act (EA) on February 14, 2022.
During the clear-out of protesters after the EA was put in place, one protester, an elderly lady, was trampled by a police horse, and one conservative female reporter was beaten by police and shot with a tear gas canister.
Trudeau revoked the EA on February 23, 2022.
