BREAKING: Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich wins review, granted bail
Tamara Lich, one of the organizers behind the Freedom Convoy, has won an appeal and will now be granted bail.
Initially taken into custody by police in Ottawa on the evening of Feb. 17, Lich has remained behind bars since. At a previous bail hearing on Feb. 22, Lich had her request for bail denied by Justice Julie Bourgeois, a former Liberal Party candidate who Lich accused of holding a political bias in the case.
Late week, Lich was back in front of a judge requesting a bail review, a hearing that was documented by Ottawa-based lawyer David Anber.
Today, a judge reversed the original decision and granted Lich bail.
