A jury has found two men not guilty of conspiring to kill police at the border blockade at Coutts, Alta.
But Anthony Olienick and Chris Carbert have been convicted of mischief and possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.
Olienick has also been convicted of possessing a pipe bomb.
The two were arrested after police found a cache of weapons, ammunition and body armour near the blockade at the Canada-U.S. border crossing in 2022.
The blockade was one of several held across the country to protest COVID-19 rules and vaccine mandates.
The trial heard statements and text messages from the accused warning that the blockade was a last stand against a tyrannical federal government.
More coming.
