The Trudeau government’s use of the Emergencies Act was illegal – now YOU can do something about it | CCF [Canadian Constitution Foundation]

September 7, 2022 - "The Public Order Emergency Commission (also known at the Rouleau Commission) is now accepting comments from members of the public on their experiences, views, observations, and ideas about the federal government’s response to the Freedom Convoy and use of the Emergencies Act. These public comments will be reviewed by the Commission in order for the Commission to carry out its mandate and fully appreciate how the federal government’s invocation of the Emergencies Act affected Canadians. 

"The CCF is encouraging its supporters and all members of the public to submit comments to the Commission. Check out theccf.ca for advice on style/substance and for info on how to submit your comment."

  1. Justin Trudeau claimed the House of Commons vote on his invocation of the Emergencies Act had to be a confidence vote given the significance of the circumstances. If the Public Order Emergencies Commission finds the act unjustified, Trudeau must resign by his own standards.
