WATCH: Canadian Police Arrest Freedom Convoy leader Tamara Lich

The situation in Canada continues to escalate under the tyrannical leadership of prime minister Justin Trudeau.

The leader of the peaceful Canadian Freedom Convoy has just been arrested.

Tamara Lich was arrested in Ottawa on Thursday night, along with fellow organizer Chris Barber.

The two are expected to be charged criminally according to CBS reporter David Cochrane.

They are set to appear before a judge on Friday.

Allegedly, they both are facing charges of “counselling to commit mischief.”

The Canadian government continues to overstep its authority as the world watches…

Tamara Lich was arrested and her bank account frozen not because she committed a crime but because the government seized power to enable the arrest of dissidents. She is a political prisoner. Whatever side you're on, surely you can see this is a travesty?https://t.co/CV88yUM9kB
