Crown prosecutors are seeking longer prison sentences for Freedom Convoy organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber than the two had previously stated, Lich says. The pair said in April that prosecutors were seeking two-year sentences for them.
On the morning of July 19, Lich posted on X saying that Crown lawyers had submitted documents to her and Barber’s legal teams ahead of their upcoming sentencing hearing, scheduled to take place in Ottawa on July 23.
