Designating no go zones within Canada's capital, ensuring tow trucks were available to remove vehicles from city streets and stopping the flow of money and goods keeping anti-government demonstrators fed and fuelled are all clear ways the Emergencies Act helped end the Ottawa blockades, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino said on Sunday ahead of a House of Commons vote on the controversial measure.

Conservatives, however, are highly critical of the government move and some are pushing the Liberals to revoke the act now that blockades that effectively shut the city down for more than three weeks appear to be over.Capital Dispatch: Stay up to date on the latest news from Parliament Hill

MPs have been debating the measure since Thursday morning, though the 15 hours of debate planned for Friday were cancelled due to safety concerns as police moved in to remove protesters still blockading the streets outside. Police began issuing written warnings to protesters to leave on Thursday, and the next day pushed them out with a show of force that lasted into Saturday.

He said 191 people were arrested in connection with the protests, with 389 charges laid so far including mischief, obstructing police, assault and attempting to disarm a police officer. "The charges that are being laid in Ottawa are for mischief and conspiracy to commit," he said. "We do not require an Emergencies Act to deal with these things. We have a public order operation taking place on the streets of Ottawa. It is not an national emergency."

The world is laughing at Canada. Absolutely the stupidest thing I've seen in my life. Amazing thing is how they actually convinced people that its a good idea. Mass lobotomies?

Que manga de hijos de Putas. Y el mundo le da la espalda al pueblo de Canadá.

When your a minority resident of Centretown, it’s entirely necessary to do this, would be nice to have law and order in Ottawa, so I could go out for a walk again!

When the conservatives and the bloc agree on something the government must have really fucked up

The evolution of the War act? Against your own citizens. This seems a bit too much. We will remind ourselves of this day and on to the elections.

Trudeau already exercised powers that parliament hasn’t voted to give him? Americans call that bass-ackwards.

Vote it in. Cool this down. Investigate thoroughly.

Dont do that.... Conversation language is better....

I believe and trust that our present government is doing so for the safety of all Canadians.

Once invoked, it's not going to be revoked.

Why? Are there more grannies to trample?

Since when do Canadian MPs vote on brutally abusing our frat boys and hard working Canadians?

We have emailed our MP (NDP) asking that she not support it.

Is there even anyone who dare vote against it? I mean, Trudeau already gave himself absolute power. Who can guarantee he won't come after MPs the same way?

Had Doug Ford stepped in from the beginning this would not have escalated to a uncontrollable situation.Having said that Trudeau went overboard and came up with the worst option.

For the MP's that opposed the emergency act, elections are coming..

I didn’t vote Trudeau and am not a fan of him and his government but in this instance he did exactly what was called for in this time targeted time limited measure. theJagmeetSingh will ensure the measures remain limited and come to an end as soon as the risk is over cdnpoli

When are the ones who are supporting this in the government going to be arrested and charged with their roles in this? They should not have a seat…

Why would they do this for only a few dozen 'truckers' and à 'fringe minority'..?

They told you they’d keep the power by telling you they’d invade your banks. That’s not a threat, they did it and they showed you they could. They control us all by controlling our purse strings. Goodbye canada. Lest we forget? We forgot.

A little late

Please God vote no. This will be the end of a free Canada.

We know how this thing is going to vote.

A week ago we where asking, do something! Today our Prime minister 'did something ' and got it done! Of course we need the Emergencies act. If our main bridge was still under siege, would that be enough to qualify?

I hope it’s rejected and we immediately go to an election and oust the dictator known as the substitute drama teacher JustinTrudeau

CPC_HQ doesn't care that Canada is in a national security threat by the TruckerConvoy2022 the insurrectionists throughout our nation cause these brainwashed people still could damage many things. JustinTrudeau has to get the votes from the NDP & his own party liberal_party

I have little faith in this. The WEF owns most Canadian politicians. Nice knowin' ya Canada, good job 'liberals'.
