10 charges of assault, 6 being assault on police. Sounds like it was incredibly scary. Lol!!!! What a joke.

after a short meeting with trudeau csis has a new story EmergenciesActInquiry

So what defines the threshold required to enact the EA? Dangerous precedent IMO.

Trudeau and CSIS did not meet the definition in section 2 - they broke the law - but we know that Trudeau, the LPC, Brenda Lucki and CSIS Are above the law.

I guess CSIS is above the law now.....

Honk-honk for freedom! We need to boot pm black face asap

If true, and it’s clearly NOT TRUE , why wouldn’t the government have stated initially that CSIS said this had to be done…?

God forbid that a Country’s leader should act out of an abundance of caution based on the advice of….those that are tasked to provide that advice!!!

So Ottawa’s senior class of bureaucratic bumble heads decided to use the EA despite it not being required or legally justified because they “felt” it was necessary. Dear god how far Canada has slipped down the Banana Republic slope. We used to a serious nation of laws

So if Justice Rouleau agrees then this sets a precedent for all future governments being able to invoke the EA whenever they feel like it, for future governments to rewrite even the most extreme of laws as they see fit with no parliamentary oversight and no accountability.

That last part is lost on most news report. When they do its misleading and lazy reporting.

Just another Lucki...

Judges, lawyers and cops are proof that there is no rule of law in Canada. They do things that would put normal people in jail or have consequences. Local media has ignored this problem ruthlessly and helped these bad actors stay hidden. For example:

Criminals investigating criminals 🤡

CSIS director told Trudeau invoking the Emergencies Act was 'required' to quell 'Freedom Convoy'CSIS\u0027 recommendation to invoke the Emergencies Act is a significant boost to the federal government’s case. 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. Was necessary in order to violate rights and quash an otherwise legal protest. Fucking fascists.

John Ivison: CSIS elastic interpretation of Emergencies Act puts Trudeau on firmer groundCSIS director seems to have accepted a rather elastic interpretation of the legislation. It remains to be seen whether the inquiry agrees. What the actual F is “elastic interpretation”. Convenient broadening of the definition. In Christianity we call it the spirit of the law opposed to literal interpretation for which it was designed for. Is that the propaganda word of the day fakenews?

CSIS director advised Trudeau to invoke the Emergencies Act to deal with convoy protestsDavid Vigneault did so despite the fact that the blockades did not meet the definition of a national security threat outlined in the legislation, the inquiry heard Good He should resign then, since CSIS also said there was no threat or danger. “Based on …unspecified information shared with Mr. Vigneault at the cabinet table…” Translation: Trudeau was begging/threatening him.

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.🙄

Ivison: CSIS elastic interpretation of Emergencies Act puts Trudeau on firmer groundCSIS director seems to have accepted a rather elastic interpretation of the legislation. It remains to be seen whether the inquiry agrees. Behind closed doors he suggested it. No email. No text. No communication verified by anyone. And deputy director and other csis members already said it didn’t warrant EA. Odd. Total BS. Vigneault from Montreal was appointed as head of CSIS BY Trudeau. Rouleau was appointed BY Trudeau, and Lucki was appointed BY Trudeau! Canadian Civil Liberties Association has it right: “government’s argument appears to be that the Emergencies Act doesn’t mean what it says.”

Trudeau says government monitoring after CSIS reports Iran has issued death threats against Canadians | CBC NewsPrime Minister Justin Trudeau says he's aware of reports that Iranians are 'interfering' with the lives of Canadians and is monitoring the threats. I am more worried about the neighbor in the south He can’t even say it without hyperventilating! He lies ! The thread is not from Iranians. It’s from Iran’s Regime. These 2 are meaning completely vice versa . Iranians are very good people and the regime is a not representing people of Iran at all . Iranians are the victim and threatened by the regime in many horrific ways.
