Why is CTV giving her any attention?

Not a "hero". Not about "Freedom". Not a "patriot". An unintelligent delusional criminal.

Summary: A small group of Canadians have been duped into believing a delusional criminal is some sort of modern day folk hero. The ruse works, average citizens are paying her legal fees while she rides around on a horse waving the Canadian, further disparaging the very country she claims to love.

Lock her up. We shouldn't give local terrorists a free pass on trying to overthrow the government.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

To her fans, Lich is a proud Canadian, a lioness of the movement behind the "Freedom Convoy" protests and the target of a justice system that won't abide her anti-government beliefs.

To the Crown, Lich is a nefarious actor who deliberately helped lead blockades that tormented residents, defied police orders, shuttered businesses and pushed the country to a state of national emergency.

A court document shows Moiz Karimjee, the assistant Crown attorney who was the senior prosecutor for many of the bail hearings related to the convoy, was reading the book while preparing for the trial.

Convoy participant Bethan Nodwell said that seeing Lich appear on Peterson's show this summer only increased her legitimacy as a public figure who is now in the "big leagues" of what supporters call the "freedom" or "patriot movement."

She had already helped bring a group of truckers to Parliament Hill a few years earlier to protest Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's environmental policies, which is when her political activism took root.

Lich has told audiences this summer that the legal bills for her court battle are being provided by The Democracy Fund, a civil liberties charity focused on helping those who opposed COVID-19 restrictions.
