But also admits many times that the list of legal thresholds were not met? 🤪 That testimony from the CSIS head gives good cover to PMJT for invoking of the E.A.

CSIS director told Trudeau invoking the Emergencies Act was 'required' to quell Freedom ConvoyCSIS\u0027 recommendation to invoke the Emergencies Act is a significant boost to the federal government’s case. David Vigneault stated that “in his opinion”! In other words, if you hold a position in public administration you can express Opinions & thus suppress all civil rights, disregarding the law. Nice, oppress ppl just because your opinion is above the law.! The only thing the “ fake trucker” convoy had to do with freedom is it took the freedom away from real Canadians to travel freely in their capital city and cross the USA border. Oh and cost Canada billions! Don’t call it a freedom convoy. Look at his lying face.🙄
