There's a photo of Lich walking into court with a huge grin pasted on her face.
I'm looking forward to seeing that grin wiped off when she's convicted and sentenced.

I read that she has already spent over a month in jail for this.
I'd say she's itching to become a conservative martyr by being very publicly sent to prison by a "tyrannical government". She's hoping people will protest for her freedom.
Cool.
I just want to see her behind bars and survive Canada's very shitty women's prison system.
I think she should be sentenced to being locked in a cell for almost four weeks of honking.
Maybe they could place her in a cell with a repeated honking noise going on for weeks
Weird, there seems to be an echo in this thread.
What's that? The honking is drowning everything out. I hope Lich gets to have a few weeks of loud honking outside her cell.
I’d rather it inside her cell but I’m kind of an asshole.
I hope this trial uncovers where all the donated money ended up
The end reveal of the grift is always prime popcorn time
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The high profile trial of two "Freedom Convoy" leaders Tamara Lich and Chris Barber began Tuesday, with Crown lawyers calling on an Ottawa police officer to testify.
During opening statements at the Ontario Court of Justice, Crown lawyer Tim Radcliffe said the case is not about Lich and Barber's political views, but instead how they "crossed the line" in committing the crimes they're accused of.
The two sat in the first row of seats behind their lawyers, flanked by a courtroom of supporters and other onlookers, including news reporters.
Day one of the trial began Tuesday with Crown lawyers detailing some of the evidence they intend on calling.
Their highly anticipated, judge-alone trial will hear from several witnesses and view hundreds of pieces of evidence, including 50 videos.
Radcliffe said around 22 witnesses are expected to be called, including senior Ottawa police leadership, city officials and people who lived and worked downtown during the protests in February 2022.
The original article contains 348 words, the summary contains 154 words. Saved 56%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Their lawyers are already trying to spin this as political prosecution.
Remember:
Actions are not "politics".
Actions are not "beliefs".
Actions are not "thoughts".
What they are charged for are things that they did, not things that they believed or thought.
