Incredible yes or Tamara Lich This is a very disturbing look at one of the organizers and her husband. Tamara Lich has been denied bail because the judge thinks she will ignore court orders. <<Before her arrest, Lich told journalists she wasn't concerned about being arrested, didn't think the protest was illegal and also said her bank account was frozen>> << He also questioned whether the Emergencies Act which was debated Saturday in the House of Commons was implemented legally, at times confusing the numbered amendments found in the U.S. Constitution with Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms. "Honestly? I thought it was a peaceful protest and based on my first amendment, I thought that was part of our rights," he told the court. "What do you mean, first amendment? What's that?" Judge Julie Bourgeois asked him. "I don't know. I don't know politics. I don't know," he said. "I wasn't supportive of the blockade or the whatever, but I didn't realize that it was criminal to do what they were doing. I thought it was part of our freedoms to be able to do stuff like that." He also began asking the court about whether the Liberal government was legally allowed to implement the Emergencies Act. "Can you tell me if what they did is really legal? If this is something that they can be doing or is it against everything that is good and holy? I don't know," he said.>>
