Chris Barber Found Guilty! June 2025

Chris Barber, one of the courageous leaders of the Freedom Convoy was recently found guilty, alongside Tamara Lich, of 2 criminal charges relating to his activities at the Freedom Convoy in early 2022. He has not yet been sentenced, but could be facing jail, house arrest and/or probation time. Chris is a Canadian Trucker from Saskatchewan, and his truck Big Red, seen in the photo below was an iconic part of the Convoy in Ottawa.

Further to this, Chris tells me the prosecutor is coming after his truck - Big Red - to take it as proceeds of crime. Chris is fighting to make sure this outrageous action doesn't succeed, and he needs your help to do so. He says they want to destroy anything that symbolizes the Freedom Convoy.

As a silver lining, Chris was charged with 7 total criminal charges, and was convicted on only two charges. The convictions are problematic, and Chris will be fighting for his livelihood and freedom - but it could have been worse.

What was supposed to be "only" a 16 day trial, has ballooned to 44 days of trial. He now has to travel to Ottawa again in a few weeks for another set of hearings and to receive his sentence. While some of Chris's extensive legal bills are covered, a big chunk of it falls on his shoulders, including his travel costs too and from Ottawa for the multiple legs of the trial, and additional motions - like the Crown trying to take Big Red. Chris needs your help to raise nearly $80,000.
