So what legal actions can be taken against Trudeau and his government? I would think that anyone whose account was seized, or who was charged as a result of this act being enacted, would have some legal recourse

[dmcbride]

It’s on the CBC with the typical defence at the end.

It will likely be appealed to the Supreme Court and then we will see what happens.

Best legal actions would be voting them out.

The more court decisions that go against them, the better the odds of voting them out.

If Trudeau was actually going to be held accountable for this it might actually mean something

If not it’s just more fluff

[Talking moose]

I’m just glad nobody here defended the act back when things were taking place.

It’s sad how many people defended what took place against the Ottawa protest

Yup, and they will be on this thread soon enough too.

As for consequence, sue.

Charter Damages are available against Police, and the Crown for their Actions.

Judges are a bit cheap when it comes to Charter Damages for unlawful arrest, and abusive conduct in Custody, and unlawful seizure of property in Canada, but that can change as well.

Agreed --- The Liberal government and Trudeau in the past have committed so many wrongs and walked away without repercussions he will just shrug this one away like the others.

If there are lawsuits and settlements the taxpayer will be on the hook and all we will see from him is that arrogant smug grin.

I don’t recall anyone saying the emergencies act was valid or proper.

Some did say the protest went on too long and the police should have dealt with it but didn’t.

Alberta has laws in place to prevent similar blockades of infrastructure by any protesters whether political, environmental, social, racial protests.

Watching Freeland wiggling so hard is hilarious.

This was a massive blow against the liberals.

There was members that defended the use of the emergency act but I am not going to out them.

They can own it themselves or people can search for the old thread if it wasn’t deleted

[ScottFitter]

Only a.massive blow if something happens because of it, such as Trudeau being removed from office or being forced to call an early election. Maybe having to vacate office and brought up on federal charges finally, I'm not sure.

However, this is not Canada as we knew it and I see nothing coming of this other than a forgotten headline.

[DirtShooter]

That's sure to upset some people here.

What will happen though? Nothing. No compensation for those who donated to the gofundme and got doxxed.

Government over reach is going to be a big talking point.

I wonder how this affect Tamara’s court case. Technically as of now… the law in which she was arrested for has been squashed. Unless charges aren’t at all connected to the emergencies act.

Oh common I am in anticipation for the public shaming and hanging! Bring the perpetrators out!
As for Turd- I don’t see anything happening to him as usual. This clown is bulletproof. Unless Singh decides to abandon him - he will just shake it off again….

[tirebob]

PP needs to use this to introduce a motion of non-confidence... Probably won't be successful with the NDP propping them up, but at the very least it will force the NDP into a corner and take a side. That could help in the future election.

Agreed. Helps to pin Singh into agreeing with government overreach.

Many new Canadians come from countries with horrible government overreach. For those I’ve chatted with over the years they recognize it and vote conservative as a result. Another targeted conversation PP can use.

Absolutely this. Singh has this stink on him along with all the other liberal stink.

[Dewey Cox]

This might just earn Justin another $200 fine.

[Sundancefisher]

Singh just press released that they agreed with approving the emergencies act reluctantly and that the whole problem was liberals mess.

Back peddle much?

You have a short memory.
A one minute search showed me one of the usual defenders defending the "emergency".

Not that any of this matters, Trudeau is teflon. That is until Canadians come to their senses.

It would be nice if the court acted a little faster like right when it happened.

Trudeau and the liberals are above the law.

Blackface Crimeminister has a nice ring to it. He illegally used the War Measures Act on citizens. Where are all the lieberals I wonder? Vote of non confidence NOW.
