Convoy organizer asks for stay of proceedings after guilty verdict
April 17, 2025
Convoy organizer Chris Barber has asked for a stay of proceedings, two weeks after an Ontario judge found him and Tamara Lich guilty of mischief for their roles in the 2022 mass protest in Ottawa.According to a news release from the non-profit helping his defence, Barber is arguing the proceedings should be halted because he “sought advice from lawyers, police and a Superior Court Judge” on the legality of the protest.The application was filed a day after Barber learned Crown prosecutors were pursuing a two-year prison sentence, according to the news release from the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms.
