Looked him up on the GAL. Let's just say this is not a place where you'd expect a breach like this. They will and should throw the book at this guy.

And of course his FB is full of convoy sympathy. Fits the profile.

Reset the counter I guess.....

You found his FB ? Must have been taken down by the time I looked.

Usual reminder: According to Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms, "Any person charged with an offence has the right .... to be presumed innocent until proven guilty according to law in a fair and public hearing by an independent and impartial tribunal" - none of the allegations have been proven in court.

This from MSM so far ...

Foreign interference? The way I see it, that’s a pretty benign description by the government.. Am I wrong or does it suggest that the person being arrested is less guilty than the foreign entity trying to get an advantage over Canada? To me, it’s about spying. It’s about betrayal. It’s about warfare by other means. And if what I have just said doesn’t apply to the person being arrested, then maybe he shouldn’t have even charged at all. In other words, call a spade a spade and don’t sugarcoat it.
