CBC insider EXPOSES ‘bias’ and ‘intimidation’ at network Former CBC Host Travis Dhanraj provided blistering testimony in the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage today, including allegations of bullying, intimidation, and a freeze-out of conservative voices. In his testimony, Dhanraj stated he and other CBC employees were provided a list of 45 people they were instructed not to speak with, including reporters. Imagine my surprise while watching Travis Dhanraj's testimony, covering the hearing for Rebel News, when my very own name came up! During a conversation about me and the Freedom Convoy where Mr. Dhanraj told Mr. Cochrane, "I think she has a couple of last names," David quipped back, "People who live in trailers usually do." Ironically, it was mere weeks ago when David Cochrane, offended by a photo I posted to my X account of him which he found "unflattering." He raised a complaint with CPC media personnel on grounds of media courtesy. I ended up removing my post out of said courtesy, but couldn't help but wonder if he would do the same for me. Let's face it, the CBC aren't searching out glamour shots of myself or any convoy people. Even worse is the obvious disdain from a certain Ottawa bubble for working-class Canadians, who pay their salaries, by insinuating that if you don't work at CBC Headquarters, on Parliament Hill, or aren't on the government dole, then you're dismissed as invaluable — the type of dwelling you live in determines your place in society. This is the least shocking of the information presented at the committee hearings today, as panelists, including Dhanraj, laid out several issues with the current media landscape in Canada. From biases to smaller, local publications being squeezed out of the market, leaving many communities feeling that they don't have a voice. I'll be on the Buffalo Roundtable tomorrow with Sheila Gunn Reid and Lise Merle XX for a recap. REPORT by Tamara Lich 🇨🇦:

Judge takes aim at Rebel News and Ezra Levant during Tamara Lich hearing The hearing over Tamara Lich 🇨🇦's request to vary her conditional sentence conditions was more about Rebel News and Ezra Levant 🍁🚛's political opinions than Lich's sentence, reports Alexa Lavoie. One of the most striking moments came when Justice Heather Perkins-McVey declared that Ezra Levant had hired Lich solely for the purpose of getting her out of her house, adding that Ezra holds very strong views of the justice system, of herself and of the trial process, which he has made very clear in Rebel News' video reports. Justice Perkins-McVey reiterated this multiple times, stating that Rebel News has, in many ways, made a mockery of the conditional sentence. She also mentioned the roughly 40 items of Tamara Lich merchandise, specifically one showing Lich with duct tape over her mouth. The judge said the merchandise suggested Rebel News was using Lich's employment to promote and monetize her house arrest, with the duct tape symbolizing Ezra Levant's view that the conditional sentence was intended to keep her quiet. Lawrence Greenspon, counsel for Tamara Lich, pushed back, saying he had never seen a case in which the political or journalistic views of an employer were considered a reason to doubt compliance with a conditional sentence. Greenspon repeatedly stressed that Lich has complied with the conditions. She has already spent nine months under the conditional sentence, completed her 100 hours of community service and received approval for interprovincial travel for work on 13 separate occasions. He argued that she is under extraordinary scrutiny, saying that if she steps one inch outside the lines, people will notice and authorities will know. Crown prosecutor Siobhain Wetscher clarified that they are not suggesting Lich has in any way breached her conditions, but that the Tamara Project was effectively designed as a workaround to Lich's sentence, and described her employment as self-promotion under the guise of journalism. The Crown also argued that allowing broader exemptions would weaken the denunciatory and deterrence effect of the sentence and undermine public confidence in the justice system. Greenspon argued that Chris Barber, who was also found guilty of mischief, has since been allowed to travel internationally for work. Justice Perkins-McVey said she was not aware of that. The bias of the judge was clearly on display. At times, she was almost finishing the Crown prosecutor's sentences, and at one point, they even giggled together over an argument. The judge even had Tamara Lich's lawyer acknowledge that she has the power to tighten the restrictions. She appeared offended by Ezra's harsh criticism of her decision-making, even though that is exactly what commentary journalism is for: to criticize when the justice system makes decisions that are unfair or biased. Lich has been compliant with her sentence conditions for nine months now. She is requesting permission to travel internationally for work. The Crown is opposing the request, and the final decision is soon to be handed down. Tamara Lich has endured one of the longest nonviolent mischief trials in the Commonwealth for her participation in the 2022 Freedom Convoy, where she, along with tens of thousands of other Canadians, stood up for medical freedom amid the COVID vaccine mandates that plagued the country. All of that, only to end up with strict conditions, including house arrest, a curfew and community service, in addition to the 49 days in prison she had already served.

JUDGEMENT DAY: Ezra Levant 🍁🚛 is in the Ottawa Courthouse for Tamara Lich’s verdict More than three years after the Freedom Convoy was brought to a violent end, two of the protest's organizers, Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, are set to receive their verdicts. I’m sitting in Courtroom Five of the Ottawa Courthouse. A few feet away from me is Tamara Lich, and her co-accused Chris Barber. They have been on trial for “mischief” — that’s what the government has called the trucker convoy. But it’s turned into the longest-running mischief trial in Canadian history. The process has become the punishment. Tamara Lich was the positive, peaceful, loving face of the convoy. She personified its spirit — a place of bouncy castles and hot-tubs, of people singing O Canada and waving the flag. She set the mood and spirit for the most important peaceful civil liberties protest in Canadian history. What a contrast to Justin Trudeau and Chrystia Freeland — scowling, denouncing, sending in riot police, and seizing bank accounts. That’s why they had to prosecute her: they had to knock her down a peg. They know that if she is convicted of a crime, the entire convoy would be besmirched. But I know that the reverse is true: if Tamara Lich is acquitted today, that will vindicate everything the convoy did, and put the government in its place. I’m going to be live-tweeting the results today — the ruling is expected to be over 100 pages long, and the judge intends to read most of it out loud. Follow along on my Twitter account, and I’ll also make occasional video updates during breaks. And: if you’re able to, please help chip in to cover Tamara Lich’s legal fees. The Democracy Fund has been paying the enormous bills of Tamara’s top-flight lawyers. If you can help, please click here, or go to The Democracy Fund is a charity, so you’ll get a charitable tax receipt for your gift. The government has spent more than $10 million in their witch-hunt, between the police and the prosecution. We’ve got to help Tamara fight back. Thanks for your support — and please follow my live-tweeting throughout the day!

Tamara Lich returns to Ottawa for US ambassador's July 4 party On last night's episode of The Ezra Levant 🍁🚛 Show, Freedom Convoy organizer and Rebel News journalist Tamara Lich 🇨🇦 discussed her experience at the US ambassador's July 4 celebration in Ottawa. Lich attended the event at the ambassador's residence alongside Rebel News CEO Ezra Levant, Director of Production Efrain Monsanto, and Journalist Alexa Lavoie. The July 4 celebration saw hundreds of business leaders, politicians, journalists, and other guests converge in Ottawa's Rockliffe Park to mark America's 250th anniversary. Lich commented on the backlash from some users on social media regarding her attendance at the event. "I think there's a lot of people out there that would rather I was miserable and broken and just demoralized by this whole thing," she said. "But I think you know me well enough by now Ezra to know that I make the most of every situation I'm in, I keep a positive attitude, and I believe we're still going to come out on top in all this," Lich continued. Guests enjoyed fireworks, live music, and a flyover by U.S. F-35 fighter jets as part of the landmark 250th anniversary celebrations. The event drew hundreds despite earlier speculation about lower turnout due to summer scheduling conflicts. Ambassador Hoekstra addressed the crowd, emphasizing strong U.S.-Canada ties while touching on ongoing bilateral issues like trade and infrastructure. Lich described the evening as an honour, noting the opportunity to personally thank the ambassador and American supporters for their backing during the Freedom Convoy.

🇺🇸Tamara Lich 🇨🇦 recaps U.S. ambassador's Independence Day celebration Tamara spoke briefly with the ambassador, taking the opportunity to thank him for his support — and the support of Americans — during the 2022 Freedom Convoy. On Saturday, I was invited to the official residence of the American ambassador to Canada to celebrate 250 years of American independence. What a change from how I was treated in Ottawa during the trucker convoy — arrested, jailed and prosecuted just for peacefully protesting against the Liberal government. None of it would have happened without you. I'm still under house arrest. The only way I’m allowed to travel is to clear every trip in advance with my probation officer. But because Rebel News hired me as a journalist and community ambassador — something your donations to The Tamara Project made possible — I was granted a work exemption to attend the 250th Independence Day celebrations in Ottawa alongside the other Rebels. I even had a few minutes to speak with the ambassador himself, and to thank him personally for the support he and so many Americans showed during the Freedom Convoy. That conversation meant a great deal to me. Getting out of the house, standing among people who genuinely believe in freedom, and pushing back a little against the craziness we're all living through, reminded me why I keep doing this, restrictions and all. And, frankly, the cherry on top of this excursion for me was the Liberal meltdown that ensued on Twitter when certain mainstream news pundits found out that I was invited and they weren’t! None of it happens without the people who chipped in to make my work at Rebel News real. You gave me the ability to keep working, keep travelling, and keep telling these stories. If you can, please consider chipping in again to help keep this work going.
