‘Citizens have the right to make their opinions known. We are pleased in this case to hear that the Crown will not proceed with prosecuting citizens who spoke out against harsh government lockdowns,’ celebrated Justice Centre lawyer Henna Parmar.
The Justice Centre is pleased to announce that the Crown has dropped the charges against former Member of Provincial Parliament Randy Hiller, former Member of Parliament Derek Sloan, Pastor Heinrich Hildebrandt, and private citizen Dan Stasko.
The four men were allegedly involved in peaceful rallies against COVID measures in June 2021 and were charged with violating public health orders under the Reopening Ontario Act. After negotiations with Bally Hundal, a lawyer retained by the Justice Centre, the Crown dropped all charges, stating that prosecution was no longer in the public interest.
GREAT !
I hope they take some action against the government. These bogus charges were always meant to be threats and intimidation to silence these politicians and the whole movement they were leading. There ought to be more severe penalties for those in authority who break the law. It’s in the same category as a hate crime, an attack on a whole group of people by attacking a few individuals. I guess we have to wait for the dust to settle before that happens.
