Original Note:
There was no fatality due to trampling, this is misinformation. A woman was brought to the hospital with a heart condition unrelated to the protest. Sara Carter later tweeted an apology for pushing this misinformation. https://www.twitter.com/SaraCarterDC/status/1495061330314907656 https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/false-trampling-death-rumours-at-ottawa-protests-a-sign-of-misinformation-campaign-police-say-1.6358308
