The Zexi Li lawsuit in court
Lawyer James Manson brings us up to date on the $290 million lawsuit brought by Ottawa resident Zexi Li and others against the Freedom Convoy. In court on Oct 28, Mr. Manson put forward his arguments in an appeal against the dismissal of his Anti-SLAPP motion that would have ended the lawsuit. It's still early days, he says, but he's already put forward some interesting evidence, like the fact that it was the Ottawa police, and not the truckers, that created the traffic problems in downtown Ottawa back in January and February 2022.
