Barber’s arrest occurred in the same week that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked Canada’s Emergencies Act to break the trucker blockade of major trade routes between the U.S. and Canada.
Barber was recently named along with co-organizers Tamara Lich and Benjamin Dichter in a class-action lawsuit seeking to prevent the protesting truckers from blasting their horns. The lawsuit claimed the loud horns could cause permanent hearing damage to residents of Ottawa, Canada’s capital city.
