The Post Millennial: 'After the arrest of freedom convoy organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber Thursday night, pundits have raised red flags over the direction that Canada is headed. Batya Ungar-Sargon said that Canada was now "officially arresting dissidents."
'"A country that considers itself a democracy arresting people for the crime of organizing a mass grassroots nonviolent protest should horrify each and every one of you," she wrote. "Surely we can all agree on that, whatever side of this you're on.
'"Tamara Lich was arrested and her bank account frozen not because she committed a crime but because the government seized power to enable the arrest of dissidents. She is a political prisoner. Whatever side you're on, surely you can see this is a travesty?" she said.'
