It is now illegal in Canada 🇨🇦

[Whitefire13]

Welcome @almahmoud84

I’m Canadian and we do have a thread on the protests as well as the lead up to the Emergencies Act…

What happened to freedom?

My opinion: no fucking way - licence to kill??? depends on the police force…eg. are they remaining apolitical??? what about people scooped up that weren’t apart of the protest? Bail holdings is its own separate issue tied with the legal system. a decade in prison??? For vandalism? Enforce laws against property damage…have some property protected as “nation’s” (doesn’t this already exist - I’d have to check) blockades are different than blocking…. Blockades can be a national security risk - …

The Emergency Act had already replaced the previous “War Measures Act” (which was more limiting to citizen’s rights/freedoms).

Trudeau, as Prime Minister exercised his authority to use the Act.

This was not illegal.

NOW it’s under review as to whether the evidence supported the use of the Act (high level).
