Baker's lawyer, Alan Libman, said Baker remains “committed to taking his medication and working with his treatment team.”

“I was confident based on the evidence that was presented to them,” Libman told the Winnipeg Sun on Friday. “There was no contrary point of view provided. No one who has worked with him believes he's a danger to anyone, no one who has worked with him has anything negative to say. He's been hard-working, compliant, and has done everything that's been asked of him.”

Libman said he can't change the opinions of those in the public who may feel uneasy with Baker now free.

“I can't adjust that. That's just not the way we operate in a free and democratic society,” Libman said. “We don't punish people who didn't intend the consequences of their actions. It's a mental health issue, not a legal one.”

Libman said Baker intends to maintain residence in Winnipeg in the short term, continue his education and plans to visit his family in China in the fall.
