Judge throws out charges against pair accused of harassing N.S. chief medical officer
Judge rules it took too long to bring Diagolon founder Jeremy MacKenzie and Morgan Guptill to trial
A Nova Scotia judge has thrown out charges against two people accused of harassing the province's chief medical officer of health during a protest against COVID restrictions outside his home, ruling their rights were violated because it's taken too long to bring them to trial.
Jeremy MacKenzie, a 38-year-old podcaster and founder of the controversial group Diagolon, and his partner, Morgan Guptill, 34, were charged in 2022 with criminal harassment, mischief, making harassing phone calls and intimidation of a health professional.
The pair were scheduled to go on trial next week in Dartmouth, N.S. But on Wednesday, provincial court Judge Jill Hartlen ruled the time between arrest and trial violates the 18-month ceiling set by the Supreme Court of Canada, even after taking into account delays caused by the defence.
MacKenzie is known for creating Diagolon, a group Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has called white nationalist. MacKenzie has denied allegations of extremism and violence, and has maintained Diagolon is simply a loose-knit community of fans of his podcast.
While he has faced other charges in a number of provinces, all of those have been withdrawn or resolved, including those related to firearms allegedly found during a January 2022 search of his parents' home in Pictou, N.S.

The charges dealt with Wednesday relate to a three-day protest in March 2022 against COVID-19 restrictions outside the Fall River, N.S., house of Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Robert Strang.
MacKenzie and Guptill have alleged their rights were violated in a number of ways after they were taken into custody, and have claimed the decision to arrest and charge them was politically motivated and influenced by the office of Premier Tim Houston.
Hartlen shot down that assertion last month, ruling there was no evidence police acted to "improperly stifle political activity." She has sided with the defendants in some other respects, however, including over MacKenzie's right to a lawyer of his choice following his arrest.
But the issue that led Hartlen to declare a stay of proceedings, which ends the prosecution, was the math surrounding delays in bringing the case to trial, which was to take place nearly 27 months after the arrests. After subtracting defence delays, she calculated the time to trial still breached the crucial Supreme Court deadline by one month.
One particular issue, she said, was a decision not to hold the trial alongside a series of Charter hearings earlier this year, which would have allowed the trial to wrap up in early May and within the 18-month threshold.
She noted MacKenzie's lawyer, Sherif Foda, had warned last year he would seek to have the charges stayed if a "blended" approach was not taken and it led to trial delays.
Hartlen said the prosecution had wanted to separate the two, but it was her decision to do so, and she acknowledged the way she approached it was "less than ideal."
Protest details
MacKenzie and Guptill declined to comment outside the court. Prosecutor Emma Woodburn said in an email that the ruling was not the outcome the Crown had hoped for, but it respects the decision of the judge, who provided "thorough reasons."
In a statement, Strang said he respected the decision of the judge and understands the reasons for it, but added the stay of proceedings "in no way condones the actions taken by the protesters."
At the time of the protest outside Strang's home, many restrictions related to COVID-19 had been lifted, but a number remained, including the requirement to wear face masks in schools.
The court previously heard that Strang's daughter had a panic attack, and his wife had to escort care workers for their autistic son away from the home because they were too intimidated to leave on their own.
The phone rang constantly one night, after Guptill used social media to urge people to call the Strang home, Hartlen said in a previous ruling, and protesters were livestreaming video of the home, zooming in with their phones to view the interior.

Judge rules arrest of Diagolon founder on COVID-19 protest charges not politically motivated
Jeremy MacKenzie, 38, Morgan Guptill, 33, accused of harassing N.S. chief medical officer of health in 2022
A Nova Scotia judge has ruled the 2022 arrest of the founder of an anti-government group who protested COVID-19 restrictions outside the home of the province's chief medical officer of health was not politically motivated.
Judge Jill Hartlen of the Nova Scotia provincial court made the decision last week in the case of prolific podcaster Jeremy MacKenzie, 38, and his partner, Morgan Guptill, 33, who are arguing harassment and mischief-related charges against them should be tossed due to alleged violations of their rights.
The hearing comes as the controversial group founded by MacKenzie, Diagolon, has been the source of heated exchanges in Ottawa, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accusing Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre of courting followers during a visit last week to an anti-carbon tax convoy camp near the Nova Scotia-New Brunswick border.
Trudeau has called Diagolon violent and "white nationalist," the RCMP have described it as a militia-like network that believes the collapse of Western governments should be hastened, and Poilievre in 2022 denounced the group as "dirtbags."
MacKenzie has denied the allegations of extremism and violence, and has maintained Diagolon is simply a loose-knit community of fans of his podcast.

MacKenzie and Guptill are charged with criminal harassment, mischief, making harassing phone calls and intimidation of a health professional in relation to a small, three-day protest in March 2022 outside the Fall River, N.S., house of Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Robert Strang.
MacKenzie's lawyer, Sherif Foda, has claimed the decision to charge the pair was politically motivated, with interference from the office of Premier Tim Houston, and that police "bowed to political pressure," according to Hartlen's decision.
In particular, the defence focused on the role of Ian Burke, a security officer with the Nova Scotia government who called police over the protest outside Strang's home, and who the judge said "advocated strongly" for RCMP involvement and acted as a go-between with police and Strang.
No 'pull or influence'
But in her decision, Hartlen said there is no evidence the officer in charge of the investigation, Det. Const. Todd Streatch, was ordered to investigate in a certain fashion or give preferential treatment, or felt pressured to lay charges or arrest certain people.
There is also no evidence he spoke to Burke or the premier's office before he decided to lay charges, the judge said, and the evidence shows he did not arrest MacKenzie and Guptill to "improperly stifle political activity."
"The evidence demonstrates that Ian Burke did not have the pull or influence that the applicants wish to portray," Hartlen said.
Not only that, she said Streatch "consistently maintained" that Diagolon and his belief that MacKenzie, who is a Canadian Forces veteran, suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder were not factors in his decision to charge the pair.
There is also no evidence, the judge said, that Burke or the premier's office interfered in the Crown's decision on the release conditions for MacKenzie and Guptill when agreeing to their bail three days after their arrest.
'Not the crime of the century'
In Dartmouth provincial court this week, MacKenzie's lawyer urged the judge to stay proceedings, which would end the prosecution of the case, due to Charter breaches related to the detention of MacKenzie's phone, and alleged breaches related to his access to a lawyer after his arrest and the length of time it has taken for the case to come to trial.
The prosecution is opposed to the stay, and the judge has yet to rule on the application. MacKenzie and Guptill, who is representing herself, are scheduled to go on trial in June.
Foda said in court his client and Guptill "embrace" the chance to go to trial if they fail in their bid to have their cases stayed. He said no one was physical hurt during the protest.
"It's not the crime of the century," he said.
Nova Scotia had lifted many COVID-19 restrictions in the days before the protest outside Strang's home, but a number remained, including the requirement to wear face masks in schools.
Protest details
In her ruling last week, Hartlen said Strang and neighbours saw MacKenzie pacing back and forth in front of the house for hours, making aggressive comments and ranting. Protesters were using the zoom function on their phones to stream over the internet the inside of the house.
At one point, Strang's daughter had a panic attack, the judge said, and his wife had to escort care workers for their autistic son away from the home because they were too intimidated to leave on their own.
Guptill used a livestream on social media to urge people to call the Strang home, and the phone rang throughout the night, causing "distress" to the family, Hartlen said.
MacKenzie has faced charges, many of them firearms-related, in a number of provinces, but all except the current case have been withdrawn or resolved.
In March, firearms-related charges related to a January 2022 search of his parents' home in Pictou, N.S., were resolved, according to the Nova Scotia Public Prosecution Service.
A spokesperson said a peace bond in the case prohibits MacKenzie from possessing weapons for 24 months, and he was required to forfeit any weapons or ammunition.
Diagolon founder Jeremy Mackenzie’s final charges have been stayed
Controversial podcaster Jeremy Mackenzie is free and clear after the final outstanding charges against him were stayed.
Charges
against Mackenzie, a 14-year military veteran who served in
Afghanistan, and his girlfriend Morgan Guptill, were stayed by a Nova
Scotia judge who found that the 19 months between being charged and the
end of the trial was an unreasonable length of time.
These were the last remaining criminal charges against Mackenzie
after charges in Quebec and Saskatchewan and others in Nova Scotia were
similarly stayed or dropped.
In the latest one, Mackenzie and
Gultipp were charged with criminal harassment of Nova Scotia chief
medical officer Dr. Robert Strang. They were arrested on the third day
of protesting on a public street near his residence.
Each of the 23 charges thrown at Mackenzie across three separate
provinces has been dropped, stayed, or resolved, including a series of
firearms charges in Saskatchewan.
Mackenzie created an online
community called Diagolon, which he describes as a fictitious meme
country represented by a black flag with a diagonal white line. In an
interview, he told True North that although he is “relieved” the
criminal cases are behind him, he was disappointed that he didn’t get a
chance to defend himself in front of the public and a jury.
Mackenzie said that on top of having his bail denied, he was placed in solitary confinement multiple times. He also said he faced physical attacks because of the media’s and the Liberal government’s characterization of him.
Mackenzie and Diagolon were singled out by the Liberal government during the Freedom Convoy as a national security risk, a position partially relied on to justify the use of the Emergencies Act.
An investigative report
by lawyer Caryma Sa’d, who has represented Mackenzie, alleged that the
government knew that Diagolon was not violent or even a traditionally
definable group.
“We have criminals running around this country
doing whatever they want,” he said. “In the time that it took to have
this case in Nova Scotia finally thrown out, four cases of pedophiles
and people luring children were tossed out because they ran out of time
to prosecute.”
Despite being free of criminal charges, Mackenzie still maintains that he was targeted for his political views.
“It lends more weight, not less, to the idea that people in this
country who are political dissidents and unhappy with the way our rulers
are conducting business are targeted by the state and punished for
dissenting,” he said, “It doesn’t paint a good picture of our legal
system and doesn’t do anything to dispel that.”
Mackenzie also took aim at the relative media silence about his charges being stayed.
“A
lot of things were said. Media had printed a lot of out of context
things and headlines. They really went to town to slander my
reputation,” Mackenzie said. “Now that it’s all over, they have nothing
to say. And there’s no one here to apologize and say ‘We jumped to
conclusions and painted you as this person without getting the facts.’
None of them showed up.”
The RCMP launched an investigation into Mackenzie at the request of Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre over comments Mackenzie made on a podcast threatening to rape Poilievre’s wife, Anaida. Mackenzie said the distasteful comments were made as a joke. The RCMP never laid charges.
