Two organizers of the Freedom Convoy who wanted $200,000 from funds frozen by the court, and held in trust pending a class action lawsuit for honking during the Ottawa protest earlier this year, were turned down by a judge on Dec. 6.
Chris Garrah and Benjamin “BJ” Dichter argued at a hearing on Nov. 15 that they required access to some of the roughly $5 million of funds raised for truckers now held in escrow, to pay for upcoming legal fees.
