,<\/a>You probably met Tamara in one of our\u00a0FightTheFines.com<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0stories last week.\u00a0She got slapped with a social distancing ticket for walking the shores of an empty beach in Cobourg, Ontario.\u00a0<\/strong>You see, despite having very few cases, the town of Cobourg decided to close its beaches as part of their new COVID-19 regulations.

\u00a0After Tamara refused to accept the ticket, bylaw officers called in the real police, who handcuffed Tamara, took her belongings, and hauled her off to jail.\u00a0<\/strong>

We took on Tamara’s case as soon as we heard about it and you can\u00a0help us fight it here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong>Watch Tamara tell her story<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0about\u00a0her experience with the Corona Patrol.

\u00a0<\/a>Some say it\u2019s best to just pay the fine and stop going to the beach until we\u2019re told it\u2019s safe to do so.\u00a0But we think it\u2019s better to let power-hungry law enforcement, bureaucrats, and politicians know that\u00a0WE<\/strong>\u00a0WANT OUR TIME IN THE SUN! \u00a0<\/strong>

If our politicians can go to their cottages during this “crisis”, we can go to the beach.\u00a0We\u2019re fighting this ticket even if it costs us more than double what the original fine is worth. But we think that’s a small price to pay for standing up for our personal liberties.

We have Sam Goldstein, one of the best civil liberties lawyers in the country. Sam has been hard at work on all our cases, including this one \u2013 watch our coverage at\u00a0FightTheFines.com<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0Sam is an excellent lawyer, and he\u2019s not cheap.<\/strong>\u00a0

Even if he\u2019s giving us a healthy discount, fighting these cases is still very expensive.\u00a0But he’s worth every penny — we’re already beating these cases in court!Please support our fight by donating at\u00a0FightTheFines.com<\/strong><\/a>. And if you know someone who\u2019s facing one of these ludicrous tickets, send them our way. If their case has merit, we\u2019ll take it on.\u00a0Yours truly,\u00a0David Menzies\u00a0P.S.
