Two of the main Freedom Convoy organizers, Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, are charged with mischief, counsel to commit mischief, intimidation and obstructing police.

Lich and follow convoy organizer Chris Barber are scheduled to stand trial in Ottawa starting Tuesday for their role in the three-week protest that overtook the streets around downtown and sparked a national emergency declaration.

In the final days of the demonstration, as police began to order people to leave, organizers and supporters used “hold the line” as a rallying cry, as words of encouragement and as a salutation.
