Oops! MAGA Rioter Who Fled To Canada Gets Arrested - The Logical Leftist



Whoopsie!

====================

A man who fled the country after being convicted for his actions during the January 6th Capitol riots is crying foul after authorities in Canada placed him under arrest.

CBC reports that convicted MAGA rioter Anthony Vo was arrested this week in British Columbia four years after he and his fellow Trump supporters illegally stormed the Capitol in a failed attempt to block the certification of the 2020 presidential election.

"On Wednesday, a spokesperson for the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) said Vo was arrested in Whistler on Jan. 6 on a warrant under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA)," reports CBC. "The agency assesses whether people coming to Canada are legally admissible and investigates those already here who may not be. It can arrest and detain inadmissible individuals under the act."

Vo had originally fled to Canada after being slapped with a nine-month prison sentence and he had tried to claim asylum in the country.

I hope the Canadians keep him locked up for as long as possible, until he's sent back to be pardoned by VonShitzInPantz.
