Two Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF) Calgary lawyers, Jay Cameron, left, and president John Carpay, right, face charges connected to the surveillance of Manitoba's Court of King's Bench chief justice.

Two Alberta lawyers charged with attempting to obstruct justice have been prohibited from practising law anywhere in Canada for three years as part of a deal with Manitoba prosecutors that saw their charges stayed.Randal Jay Cameron and John Carpay were charged after the Manitoba judge who presided over their case challenging COVID-19 restrictions was followed by a private investigator in 2021.

Court of King's Bench Justice Shane Perlmutter accepted the application for a common law peace bond in the case during a court appearance on Friday, when he said the accused demonstrated "unprofessional, unethical and dishonourable conduct" in hiring the investigator.
