If they dare to give prison sentences to these heroes, Canadians must rise up against this political tyranny. This is injustice to the core already & prison time would be beyond tolerable.

That the courts dared to create a criminal conviction from a bylaw infraction is troubling.

The convoy was protesting to cure an ill in society. It was a legal protest, not mischief.

The purpose of the criminal Code is to cure an ill in society, not create a mischief (Elmer Dreidger, "Construction of Statutes" 2nd edition)

Im so sick of how the liberals punish the true heroes and want to incarcerate them while the streets are out of control and the liberal government is out to lunch and out of touch with Canadians. Canada is becoming hell on earth 🌎

Candace, thank you so much for that wonderful, precise, and thoroughly accurate recounting of events spanning the Covid mandate hysteria and the Freedom Convoy.

The ongoing persecution of Chris and Tamara, amongst the countless other major Liberal scandals, is the one that often leads me to despair and want to give up hope for our country. I am not a naturally depressive person, but this travesty has led me, and I'm certain, many other Canadians to countless sleepless nights.

I recently subscribed to Juno pretty much on a whim, not knowing very much about you. Just looking for some sanity and clarity in the overwhelming fog from both mainstream and social media.

Because of your article on our two-tiered Justice system, I am a Juno subscriber for life. I wish you and your organisation all the success in the world. The world needs you.

There are several tiers of "justice" in Canada. Immigrants, natives, hamasholes, blacks and then regular Canadians.

I'd like to comment on the Alexander's dilemma. Regardless of the fanatic loons who fired them, these teachers have a union. The union, which they support with their dues, is, in law, required to take their case and fight it with all the resources they have. These teachers have no obligation to support the pride movement or any other political or quasi-political movement. Their job is to teach the curriculum. They should hire a labour lawyer to fight the school, the school board and sadly, their own union. Who are the petty meddlers running the school system? It's time for them to go. Funny, nobody has heard from Doug Ford. Where is he hiding?

Welcome to Marxism Communism.

Freedom means imprisonment for those who dare to challenge government.

Excellent review of the organic Canadian solidarity in peaceful assembly sending a message to the federal government in a manner they could not ignore. The retaliatory response from the political and legal systems has been a living lesson in how a once free and just country can quickly deteriorate into a banana republic under the influence of despots and tyrants. Shame on them. We will overcome the ridiculous 2-tiered system along with the targeted persecution of good citizens whom the establishment chooses to punish with systemic hypocrisy.

Reminds me all too much of how china treats their people. You dare not say anything against the ruling regime. And now we will probably even get the camaras watching for trouble makers in the streets. Who knows we may already have some going.

A continuation of this dark era that we are witnessing re; Lich and Barber comes in the form of the Liberal government signing on to the WHO agreement that hands management of future pandemic outbreaks over to the World Health Organisation. If WHO says everybody must get vaxxed with whatever toxin Big Pharma and Globalist governments choose or lose our freedom, we are at their mercy or we resist like never before. Canadians are showing such weakness and ignorance. Are they putting something in our food and water? Again the Liberals have jeopardised our sovereignty and human rights to a suspect organization. WHO is not worthy of our money or trust. Let's keep this in the news until we can break the stranglehold the globalist Carney and his cabinet have applied to us. We are choking slowly but surly.

You could not have a better guest than John Carpay. He is so knowledgeable on constitutional law and has spent his life defending these injustices. God go with him.
