AUBUT: Two courts said Trudeau broke the law — will the Supreme Court let him get away with it?

In February 2022, the Canadian federal government made the historic decision to invoke the Emergencies Act for the first time since it was passed in 1988. That fact alone should have caused caution. This move was intended to provide the government with temporary, extraordinary powers to deal with protests in several locations across Canada that were causing significant disruptions, particularly in Ottawa. This was not an ordinary policing step. It was the use of extraordinary federal power against Canadians protesting federal policy. The convoy began in opposition to the vaccine mandate imposed on cross-border truckers and grew into a broader protest against pandemic restrictions and government overreach. All in an effort to get the attention of Ottawa and the ruling Liberal party. Whether one agreed with every tactic used or not, the grievance itself was political, public, and plainly directed at Ottawa. There was little public sign that Trudeau or his cabinet wanted to hear and answer the convoy’s grievances.
