Lich was originally scheduled to appear for trial at the Ontario court today over allegations of having breached her bail terms set previously, after being denied bail in her last court appearance on July 8.

The bail review for Lich’s case was scheduled at the Ontario Superior Court at the earliest available date, according to defence lawyer Eric Granger, who appeared briefly via teleconference before the Ontario Court of Justice on July 14.

Her case in the Ontario Court of Justice is adjourned until after the bail review until at least July 25.

On June 27, after attending an award ceremony in Toronto, Lich was rearrested in her hometown of Medicine Hat, Alberta, under a Canada-wide warrant, and was transferred back to Ottawa to attend a bail hearing.

Tamara is purportedly being held in detention due to a breach of her bail conditions, stemming from a photo she took at award ceremony in Toronto with another key figure from the Freedom Convoy named Tom Marazzo.

Key Convoy Organizers Granted Standing on Inquiry into use of Emergencies Act https://canadianriley.com/key-convoy-organizers-granted-standing-on-inquiry-into-use-of-emergencies-act/ https://canadianriley.com/key-convoy-organizers-granted-standing-on-inquiry-into-use-of-emergencies-act/?noamp=mobile#respond Tue, 28 Jun 2022 21:28:28 +0000 https://canadianriley.com/?p=918 Key convoy organizers, police, Liberal federal and some provincial governments, have been granted standing in the public inquiry looking into the invocation of the federal Emergencies Act. The governments of Saskatchewan and Alberta have been granted full standing, while the government of Manitoba will be allowed to enter written submissions, but the federal Conservative Party and a number of individuals who had their bank accounts frozen have been denied.

Key convoy organizers including Tamara Lich, Tom Marazzo, Chris Barber and Daniel Bulford have been granted full standing. Rouleau wrote of the organizers “Their contributions to the work of the commission are necessary, as they are uniquely situated to offer information to the commission and give firsthand evidence as to the goals and organization of the convoy.”

The Ottawa Police Service has been granted full standing, while its former chief Peter Sloly will be allowed to produce documents and examine witnesses. The cities of Ottawa and Windsor have also been granted standing.

Although only the Liberal federal government has been granted standing, Rouleau said “There is also an important role for an independent non-partisan process. Both ought to operate independently from one another.”
