Canada – Update On Trudeau Invoking Emergencies Act – Canadian Civil Liberties Association Condemns Trudeau Invoking Emergencies Act

This is an update to a previous post here

Update (1935ET): The Canadian Civil Liberties Association has condemned PM Justin Trudeau for invoking the Emergencies Act, claiming in a Monday tweet that the Canadian federal government “has not met the threshold necessary” to do so.

The Emergencies Act can only be invoked when a situation “seriously threatens the ability of the Government of Canada to preserve the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of Canada” & when the situation “cannot be effectively dealt with under any other law of Canada,” the twitter thread continues.

Has Trudeau created a political emergency?
