A man on Katz's legal team, a certain press officer, objected loudly, the judge allowing him to say his piece,
"I object! This has no bearing on the case, nor on the accusations of terrorism! This is an allegation of treason, in combination with pedantry regarding Ontario's Constitution, neither of which are applicable to this trial!"
He adjusted his collar, of course lacking a tie.
"There is no evidence of our client, Mister Katz, ever committing a terrorist act, or assisting terrorist acts. This video has no value in itself as evidence and only serves to bias any decision-making."
It was true. The trial was for alleged terrorism, not for treason and not for fomenting unrest.
