Kelowna 'Freedom Rally' organizer convicted of 2 counts of assault during 2021 protest

A B.C. provincial court judge has determined one of the leaders of a movement protesting public health orders assaulted two security guards when he tried to enter an Interior Health building in Kelowna during a August 2021 demonstration.

Judge Cathaline Heinrichs announced the verdict at a hearing on Wednesday in a Kelowna provincial courtroom after a trial that saw David Lindsay act as his own lawyer.
