Wendy Kirkland was asked to leave a store in Woodstock, New Brunswick, for refusing to wear a mask despite the fact she had an exemption. The store owner called the police who attended at the scene and told Wendy to leave, which she did. Wendy was then unlawfully arrested by the police for obstruction of justice after she refused to provide them with her name. Wendy was not under detention or arrest when she was asked for her name. The arrest caused her to sustain physical injuries.

Update: TDF has retained counsel to fight this criminal charge for Wendy Kirkland at a three-day trial, which is scheduled for January 25-27, 2023.
