One of the #protestconvoy's main organizers, Tamara Lich, arguably its most famous face, will be in court tomorrow morning Saturday at 9:30 a.m. She was arrested yesterday night and faces a charge of counselling to commit mischief. #cdnpoli
Meanwhile, as reported by colleague @NicoleatCBC earlier, one of the other organizers, Chris Barber, was released under bail. His conditions: he has 24 hours to leave Ottawa....(cont'd)
And must leave the province of Ontario by midnight, Wednesday. He cannot support the convoy in any way other than paying for gas for other members of #ProtestConvoy vacating the city. Barber is back in court March 1st (cont'd)
facing charges of: counselling to commit mischief (same as Lich), plus counselling to disobey a court order, counselling to obstruct police, and mischief that interferes with the use and enjoyment of property.

Couldn't quite catch that part on camera, but as these three rigs went down O'Connor Street leaving the Parliamentary Precinct, there were both scattered cheers and a gent using, well, a single finger to say goodbye. #cdnpoli #protestconvoy
I'm just trying to go grocery shopping! But another pickup leaving if you can see the flag there on the pickup. 'Freedom!' the driver chanted to a pedestrian nearby. He replied with another expression that started with the f word. #protestconvoy Image
Crush of pedestrians moving south on Metcalfe as wind picks up. But also some headed north toward it.

That warmup tent by the National War Memorial is still there in the background (the red spot). Image
A truck driver holds court with sympathetic protesters next to the Senate of Canada. A couple of chants calling him a hero from the crowd. #cdnpoli #protestconvoy

cpac.ca/episode?id=5e1…
@JustinTrudeau thanks officers on the ground who helped reopen Ambassador Bridge. But says it's clear there are impediments, difficulties for them to act alone. "The federal government is ready to use more tools at its disposal to get the situation fully under control."
@JustinTrudeau says he's consulted w/ cabinet, caucus, spoken to opposition leaders. "The federal government has invoked the federal Emergencies Act." Says scope of measures will be time-limited, geographically targeted, reasonable, proportionate to threats they're to address.

2nd night since @fordnation declared provincial state of emergency, 16th night of #ConvoyProtest in Ottawa. Smaller crowd than yesterday, but that may have had more to do w/ -24 C w/ windchill temp than augmented police presence. (Pictured: all police I saw on my walk) #cdnpoli
(these pix are not live-ish, I took them between 10:11 pm and when I got home--sorry folx, too cold to take pics and tweet 'em without freezing fingers).
To give you some sense of the crowd in front of the Peace Tower.
