A Toronto lawyer and activist who was arrested and escorted outside of a Hamilton PC Party rally says she believes it was reprisal for her criticism of the government.

Caryma Sa’d tweeted a video of her being arrested and escorted from an event on Thursday evening. The video shows Sa’d being handcuffed while on officer asks “Can she leave?”Sa’d then looks at the camera and says “This is the Hamilton Police arresting me for political dissent.”

“What I could glean from the gentleman who asked me to leave, is that they don’t like how I use Twitter,” she added.Sa’d has a large following on Twitter and posts political cartoons and photos and videos from various events. In another video posted by Sa’d, she asks a man why she was barred from the event. She says he identified himself as a party member.

Ivana Yelich, a spokesperson for the PC Party and leader Doug Ford, refused to comment on S’ad’s allegations and referred questions to Hamilton Police. “The protesters were asked to move off the roadway. All individuals complied, but one individual refused to move and was arrested. The individual was transported off the property and immediately released with a ticket for Trespass to Property,” the statement reads.She said she repeatedly told officers she was a Toronto lawyer with no history of disrupting events or intent to cause any disturbance.

“There are tweets that Doug Ford has put out, encouraging people to sign up and attend. So I had no reasonable expectation that I would be treated this way,” Sa’d said.

How putinist

I mean, haven't you seen what happened in Ottawa a few months back?

Will this be in Saturday's paper? Or is it just for twitter?

Protesting the government gets you arrested in Moscow too.

That’s $1 MILLION of taxpayer money in wages and benefits to arrest a single, unarmed, non-violent protestor. Why didn’t Doug Ford use this kind of force in Ottawa during the trucker occupation onpoli ONelxn OntarioVotes Hamilton Ottawa VoteFordOut2022

Doug Ford is using cops to silence, nurses, reporters & protestors. It’s time Doug Ford & the cops be held accountable for police brutality & excessive force. Doug Ford is treating Ontario like a DICTATORSHIP! onpoli ONelxn OntarioVotes Hamilton Ottawa VoteFordOut2022

Fact check: True ✔

Of course she does.💤💤💤

JustinTrudeau and theJagmeetSingh believe people should be arrested if they disagree and protest against them also. Why should it be different just because it is Ford? When you are asked to leave private property then you do as requested or face the consequences

What decade is she stuck in? lol

Do you have a clue as to how hard CarymaRules has worked to gain the TRUTH? fordnation had HamiltonPolice hamiltonairport goons to get rid on anyone not kissing his ass. How about doing some REAL JOURNALISM? MarinaGlogovac VoteFordOutJune2 onpoli cdnpoli

Great. Advertising for her.

Sure wish 'The Star' would become more 'activist'. Corruption wins over activism does it Ontario?

Comparing Ford to Paul Bernardo and the daily bullying of his daughter online…not so much criticism but rather bullying!

fordnation and his minions like yelich_ivana and codymwelton think they're unaccountable and cannot stand any criticism. VoteFordOutJune2

She was on private property and asked to leave. Refused. Legitimate arrest. Practice free speech on public property then.

Meanwhile white men with a noose can threaten the PM and are not arrested! NeverVoteConservative DefundThePolice

What makes me laugh is that she thinks they have any idea who she is. When protesters break the law, this happens. They didn’t single about some unknown lawyer who happens to be an activist. Nobody knows who this person is.

DougFraud daughter is a antivax nutbar. Her husband is a cop. The puzzle is pretty easy. VoteFordOut2022
