00:00:00.320Freedom Convoy leader Tamara Leach was arrested again on June 27 after a Canada-wide warrant was put out for her for alleged breach of court condition.
00:00:14.680Her arrest resulted in lots of reactions across the country and I wanted to get the reaction of Canadians who came to Ottawa for the arrival of veteran James Topp
00:00:25.380and the celebrations of Canada Day, what they thought of Leach's arrest.
00:00:31.840What did you make of Tamara Leach being arrested a second time?
00:00:34.860Well, I think it's totally political and it's just Justin Trudeau's way of putting pressure on people and trying to discourage us from standing up for freedom.
00:00:47.700And the crime that she was charged with is a misdemeanor. It should have been maybe some probation, but what's happened to her now is terrible.
00:00:58.660I feel for her. I'm ashamed of the people who are carrying out these orders.
00:01:04.980So I was very, very sad and I lost some sleep that night when my daughter told me around 7 p.m. she said she's been arrested at Medicine Hat.
00:01:16.900I said, what? To me, she's a beacon of light and hope.
00:01:21.940I just feel that it's harassment. I do feel badly for her.
00:01:26.960It's just harassment. More harassment. And I just have to pray. Pray for her.
00:01:36.400The fact that they're wasting taxpayers' money on such a beautiful person who is only in Alberta singing her heart out,
00:01:43.380that they would make that effort just to jab us in the side.
00:01:47.920But we're strong. There's more of us together than we are alone, you know?
00:01:54.600And I just think, yeah, it was appalling. It's very appalling.
00:01:58.400Everything that's happening is very appalling.
00:02:00.800Well, to me, it seems to be, you know, the bait tactic, right?
00:02:04.820Trying to see if they can rile up some crowds to stir up some controversy here at Canada Day.
00:02:10.340So hopefully everyone just stays respectful, you know, and doesn't take the bait because that's what they want, right?
00:02:15.160To try to spin it, you know, like, say, the mainstream media, Trudeau liberals, right?
00:02:19.460They want to spin it and use her as basically a political prisoner to bait people into doing something unsavory, right?
00:02:25.940Just to try to cause controversy, so that's what they can capture on the news and try to spin it for, you know, their narrative.
00:02:31.540So hopefully everyone remains peaceful, and hopefully she gets a fair, you know, shot at the bail as well coming out.
00:02:39.240If it wasn't a political example, it's, as my husband just said, it was also just trying to set an example to us of, look what can happen to you.
00:02:48.040Like, we'll throw you in here as well this weekend if you are disrespectful.
00:02:51.140So she's arrested for getting a picture taken with someone else who values freedom in Canada.
00:03:01.460You're all a bunch of freaks out there, and you know it, because what you're doing is trying to vilify and demonize true freedom-loving people.
00:03:18.160Now you've arrested her, almost like you were trying to stir up anger, almost like you were trying to make a problem when there didn't need to be a problem.
00:03:29.020So now we have political prisoners in Canada.
