WINNIPEG -- Peter Nygard is making another bid for bail with a revised plan that would beef up the monitoring of all his communications in response to a judge's concerns of witness tampering if he were released. The former fashion mogul was denied bail on Feb. 5, 2021, leaving him behind bars at the Headingley Correctional Centre while he awaits an extradition hearing. At the time, Queen’s Bench Justice Shawn Greenberg said she was satisfied that Nygard was a flight risk, and had concerns about witness tampering if Nygard were to be released. In response to Nygard's lawyers' arguments that he – as a 79-year-old man with pre-existing medical conditions – was at an increased risk of COVID-19 within the jail, Greenberg said the pandemic is only one factor and should not be treated as a "get-out-of-jail-free card."
