Why is CTV giving her any attention?

Not a "hero". Not about "Freedom". Not a "patriot". An unintelligent delusional criminal.

Summary: A small group of Canadians have been duped into believing a delusional criminal is some sort of modern day folk hero. The ruse works, average citizens are paying her legal fees while she rides around on a horse waving the Canadian, further disparaging the very country she claims to love.

#freedumbconvoy

so what has she actually done for Canada? from what i've gathered, she organized trucks and the humans driving them to create a nuisance, she travels regularly to speak with people, and she wrote a book about herself. what is so inspiring about this person? why is this considered as a part of Canadian history?

as a Canadian woman who works her ass off to pay rent, knowing full well that i'll never be able to afford to buy my own home, it pisses me off to see that this freedom movement fundraised 10 million dollars within days. i wonder, those assholes paying her legal bills - don't they have more important things to spend their money on? i'm here spending time contemplating whether or not i can afford $11 grapes at the supermarket and these MFs are getting their bills taken care of by their fellow supporters. fuck that.

Lock her up. We shouldn't give local terrorists a free pass on trying to overthrow the government.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

To her fans, Lich is a proud Canadian, a lioness of the movement behind the "Freedom Convoy" protests and the target of a justice system that won't abide her anti-government beliefs.

To the Crown, Lich is a nefarious actor who deliberately helped lead blockades that tormented residents, defied police orders, shuttered businesses and pushed the country to a state of national emergency.

A court document shows Moiz Karimjee, the assistant Crown attorney who was the senior prosecutor for many of the bail hearings related to the convoy, was reading the book while preparing for the trial.

Convoy participant Bethan Nodwell said that seeing Lich appear on Peterson's show this summer only increased her legitimacy as a public figure who is now in the "big leagues" of what supporters call the "freedom" or "patriot movement."

She had already helped bring a group of truckers to Parliament Hill a few years earlier to protest Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's environmental policies, which is when her political activism took root.

Lich has told audiences this summer that the legal bills for her court battle are being provided by The Democracy Fund, a civil liberties charity focused on helping those who opposed COVID-19 restrictions.
