This is the one part you should be worried about. Because it won't always be a Liberal govt in office. Will it? And giving that kind of power is pure authoritarianism that can be abused against any protest group.
Court has ruled Emergencies Act during Trucker convoy was unconstitutional
- Thread starter Phil C. McNasty
- Start date
I have to agree. It is the job of the police to enforce the laws. If they refuse, replace them.
If tow truck operators refuse the police requests to remove illegally parked trucks, take away their licenses to operate.
I know what would happen if I parked across from Parliament.
The point being a govt can choose to define things BECAUSE the act is vague. It needs to be looked at hard with individual rights still at the forfront.
China right now is ysing a "social score " system that uses economic restictions to control behavior. We need to ensure that precedent does not even gain a toe hold here.
Remember we engage in an illegal economic pasttime ourselves.....
I’m enjoying the popcorn, and re-reading the threads about Trump being removed from the ballots.
In exhibit one, the Left use the constitution to prevent someone from running in a democracy. They do so because they say he is guilty, no court of law required.The constitution the constitution the left here scream.
In exhibit two, a court of law decides another’s acts are unconstitutional and the left defend him.
While I’ll wait for the SCC if appealed, only material difference I see are two different standards, and the left once again proving they are kings.
Kings of hypocrisy..

She doesn't realize that the biggest threat to the country is her party.
This judge claimed he could have gone either way. I suspect the government will win in an appeal. This will help Justin because if Pee Pee stands up screaming like he usually does, 2/3 of the public was in complete support of the government doing whatever needs to be done. Ford acted on the bridge but begged the Feds to take care of Ottawa and the Libs did just that!
Pee Pee can remind Canadians how he was serving coffee and donuts to the yahoo's if he starts jumping up and down.
I'm not triggered. I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy of the Left...and I'm pointing out yours.
Guilty until proven innocent when it comes to others...innocent until proven guilty when it comes to your heroes. If you're crying about them appealing as a way to somehow divert attention from their guilt it's a desperate exercise on your part.
Our judges should be respected even if they make rulings that go against your narrative.
Trudeau is guilty. And it goes against your narrative. I do understand that.
btw Distracting and deflecting to DoFo is desperate and only magnifies your hypocrisy.
You do realize that its civil liberty groups and not politicians that brought the lawsuit don't you?
Aw, come on Skooby, you should know how appeals work. Listen, once the appeals are heard, like maybe 5 to 10 years, then talk to me.
As for Dougy, did he not do the right thing and confiscate trucks, call them yahoo, ask Justing for help? Do you deny these facts champ?
Yes, I do, did I say Pee Pee brought the lawsuit? Do you read or just make up things that you believe are written in code?
Good, then you also need to realize its a good thing the govt lost. It allows them to reassess their decision and redo the guidlines so civil liberties are not trampled. Its not about politics but about universal rights.
If the Government wins on appeal you set up a govt you don't like to be able to do the same, or even expand the loss of rights. This is a proper check on power that benefits all Canadians.
Stop being a partisan and see the big picture. Calling for violence by govt agencies over what was nuisance(and yes they needed to be removed but not that way) is not a precedent you want to set either.
If Christia respects the decision? Why appeal it? IMO their best recourse was admit they fucked up....everyone make mistakes...but they won't do that...they're going all in and that would be the liberal downfall....the emergency act was unnecessary...they could've just towed the trucks, charge the truckers whatever the cost is....you can't freeze bank accounts just to be petty...that was ridiculous...
So you won't make anymore comments until the appeal is done and the guilt or innocence proven?
No, I do not agree and I want the government to be able to step in and stop occupying protests of all stripes. It is you who is partisan not I. I think the FREEDUM movement are twits and jackasses but when they were protesting in Dundas Square and then leaving, I had no issues. I still thought they were idiots and uneducated buffoons but nevertheless I wouldn't expect the Federal government to jump in. This was different and yes, completely mishandled by the Ottawa police but once it became
They have the right to appeal and should appeal. Also this doesn't hurt them because 2/3rds of Canadian wanted the FREEDUM twats and twits taken out. Ford confiscated rigs and were released just as the bank accounts were released once the twits and twats when home like the scolded little irritant children they were.
an occupation as the bridge was, the Government did what needed to be done. Albeit to soft handed, rubber bullets and billyclubs to the knees would have been my preference.
yet they didn't do it...they froze bank accounts why? tow their trucks, it's not an nationwide emergency...the police could've handled those truckers...the government were being petty and trampled the freedom of individuals...don't know if 2/3rds of Canadians...we'll find that out soon.
Ford could've too. But I don't blame his as much because he was unaware that Canada's capital is in Ontario. I guess he thought that Ottawa is like Washington D.C.
