Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is criticizing Crown prosecutors for requesting seven-plus years’ prison time for Freedom Convoy organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber.

Poilievre made the comments on social media on July 21, saying the Crown’s request stands in contrast to the “rampant violent offenders” who he said often get released “without consequences” under Canada’s bail system.
