Rather than remove any of the Canadian government restrictions and rules surrounding COVID-19 mandates, media are reporting that at 4:30pm today Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will instead invoke the Emergency Act, formerly the War Measures Act, to take emergency action to quell the ‘Freedom Protests’ taking place in Canada.
This is a rather remarkable development highlighting the severity of the totalitarian mindset behind the governing Liberal party in Canada. The current Emergency Act has never before been used.
(CANADA – via CBC) – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has told his caucus he will invoke the never-before-used Emergencies Act to give the federal government extra powers to handle anti-vaccine mandate protests, sources say. Those sources, who were not authorized to speak publicly, said the prime minister informed the premiers of his decision this morning.
The Emergencies Act, which replaced the War Measures Act in the 1980s, defines a national emergency as a temporary “urgent and critical situation” that “seriously endangers the lives, health or safety of Canadians and is of such proportions or nature as to exceed the capacity or authority of a province to deal with it.”
Trudeau is expected to explain his decision during a news conference at 4:30 p.m. ET. CBC News will carry it live.
The act gives special powers to respond to emergency scenarios affecting public welfare (natural disasters, disease outbreaks), public order (civil unrest), international emergencies or war emergencies. It grants cabinet the ability to “take special temporary measures that may not be appropriate in normal times” to cope with an “urgent and critical situation” and the resulting fallout. It is still subject to the protections of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. (read more)
In many ways this is the ultimate display of weakness from a national leader.
Think about it. The majority of Canadians want Justin Trudeau to do two things: (1) meet with the protest groups and come to a resolution for when the COVID mandates will end with a clear exit strategy; and (2) End the mandates.
Instead of doing either of the two things that most Canadian want to see happen, the regime doubles down on crushing the rebellion and maintaining their tenuous grip on the mandates.
Quite remarkable.
Trust me: The Quebec Premier Legault is fully aligned with Trudeau but, as an election looms, he is pretending he agrees with the dissenter Premiers.
HOLD THE LINE, TRUCKERS. We’re winning !!
My guess is, try closing your bank account. I’ll bet it’s up to the discretion of the bank. This is all like the covid collusion where doctors and hospitals do what they will, and their will is to follow the government diktats.
Total Soy Limpwrist Student Council Leader. The Truckers Stomped him like the Childtwinkletoes he? Might be?
FJT
I heard this band on the Roll Stones Steele Wheel. and love this song. Anyone that can edit video of Trudeau and the truckers. Not sure how copyright would come in to play.
The Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle Tour was the band’s first world tour in seven years and their biggest stage production to date. Opening acts included Living Colour and Guns N’ Roses.
Next time, you will see canadian hiding in the trank to cross the border if blackface keep this up.
Emergency of Libtard Stupidity as always!
Welcome to the entrenched puppets of the WEF flexing their limp wrists
Trudeau has woken a sleeping giant, and filled him with a terrible resolve.
When given the choice..Tyrants will always choose more tyranny
I wonder what happens if financial infrastructure/logistics is used in one of the four provinces that rejected the Emergency Act invocation? The Emergency Act is intended to provide the provinces additional tools. What if the province does not accept the additional tools?
I’m guessing there are some questions that need to be asked/answered.
“So this is how liberty dies . . . with thunderous applause.”
I’m sure some enterprising meme makers will have a field day with Justine Turdeau using St. Valentine’s day for his authoritarian jackboot stance on the Canadian citizens.
Criminally insane, this man-child. He and his sycophants manifest a deranged indifference to the fundamentals of representative democracy. They are but cretins and parasites.
Prime Minister Borderline wants blood to flow; he wants to kill; he needs to kill them.
Blood lust, this. Insane and criminal blood lust.
UnJustinFried forces and fascist left Canadian Party violence used against Freedom and the source of Canada’s spirit itself.
It seems Canada too needs a new law and oath to put an end to Commie marxist socialist globalist lenonist maoist terrorist pedoist and identity frauds from having power in their government or holding any office or supplying any required thing.
Sorry I don’t know how Canadian Gov works so I get to throw my own IDEA out.
Same thing for US govt though, because all that crap about three branches I was taught in Elementary school are LIES with this fourth branch and it’s Smith Mundt Modernization Act to protect it while it conspires with mulitinationals in genocide and treason. No wonder they all have the SAME message.
To supply some context of how the Canadian Government works, the front-runner in the leadership race to replace Erin O’Toole (leader of the opposition) wants you to sign his petition… I kid you not.
I think not, for the near future anyway.
How this comes through.
This is the stuff that is going to win the people over.

MR52 — Sadly, nothing is there 🙁
Look at the meta change in these comments at yer ole Conservative Treehouse.
Gone are the days of , say, RedState’s fat guy and Jonah Goldberg having any bearing on the discussion ; today we have discussions of logistics, strategy, tactics and unconventional levers of power to include finance , communications and monetary strategems.
Mike V , and many other warrior saints, are smiling from on high.
Christendom is an army of Davids.
rest assured that if this latest line in the sand is allowed to move outward, like all the erst, the next emergency authorization is only months way. and then weeks away after that.
because they will know they can.
When Joe told us he didn’t need our votes he also meant he doesn’t need to care what we think. We can’t be a republic anymore when our votes are stolen. We are already living in tyranny….its just that no one here has opposed it yet with the force the truckers used.
Seems to me if they can hold out and go home for a month or so they still will have a substantial impact .
You mean he consulted with Øbama and ValJar.
As a Canadian watching the entire covid mess unravelling, and Trudeau behaving like the now very dead Romanian dictator Ceaușescu , I am truly saddened , but not surprised.
Trudeau was raised as an arrogant prick by a father (?) who indoctrinated communism and a view of the peasants as insects. He really has no brains but lots of superior ego.
I doubt the military will intervene. Unlike the US military and National Guard , the Canadian military does not have the logistic to handle AL the trucks in Ottawa. They would need to employ civilian tow trucks. If they refused , what is the military going to do , force them at the point of a gun.
Secondly, Trudeau doesn’t have the legal justification to actually implement the emergency. As such , any military commanders will wait until the legal issue is resolved so as not to be hung out to dry by Trudeau if anything goes wrong.
Yes Trudeau might be able to send in the military , but what are they going to do the police so far have not been able? Shoot someone? That would result in Trudeau”s removal and the very likely the demise of the Liberal Party to say the least.
The Laurentian elite and Quebec power brokers will likely force him out .. at least I hope .. as he is clearly going off the reservation , and these people are not morons like Trudeau.
Brian, I appreciate your point of view as a Canadian however…
He just created the legal pretext for doing exactly what he says he will be doing.
Have you seen the video of the land moving equipment sabotaged by the RCMP? They admit doing it. Wire and fuel lines cut and spray foam sprayed into systems to disable these vehicles for a long time.
At this point it seems foolhardy not to believe he will attempt to enforce all of the actions he says he can enforce.
Yeah, that was disgusting. Trudy and his Jack Boots are willing to play dirty.
I was noticing at the Bridge how big some of cops are. Huge, tall, bulk bouncer types. Almost like someone went to a gym or thug hangout and recruited them to be intimidators.
I agree and have been following the ramp sabotage. Trudeau’s handlers are trying to provoke a violent response. So far the truckers are using the Ghandi approach which leaves the government in the position of firing the first shot. The irony here is the Liberals once accused PM Harper of wanting “guns in the streets” .. military guns .. in an effort to derail his election. Now they are the ones who want “guns in the streers”
Trudeau’s power backers , Laurentian elite , Quebec brokers may be the ones to force him out as he has gone off the reservation
Cough cough, self isolation does seem the prudent course of action.
Everyone call in with covid symptoms.
Freedom Flu.
The “null” be with you.
Lets try this link:
In the year 2000, the sexual age of consent in Canada was 14.
The girl was said to be younger than 14 – Trudeau paid 2.5 million dollars to the wealthy family of this girl and sewed it all tight with substantial financial penalties if broken. It gets worse.
Search Point Grey Academy – lots of stuff about the Prime Minister who ran and hid for two weeks from big, bad, mean, Truckers who came to town, fed the homeless, cleared the streets and sidewalks of snow, and sang O’Canada.
Typical scared dictator stuff.
Here is what Pierre Poilievre thinks should be done… sign a petition…
Wow. That’s powerful, /s
Gesh, kind of like the GOPe talking about tax cuts while the country is invaded and burning ot the ground.
were not Canada and the USA closed to each other since March 2020? we thought we would take a trip to Victoria through Port angeles but told no go. when did the traffic between the two countries resume? how can anybody shut it down when it was already shut down by the two govts???
why were the entries not closed with mexico as they were with canada?
man, this is just as confusing as giving dopers crack pipes and Oregon going to impose a 3% sales tax to give dopers $750 a month ebt cards. I begin to think I somehow landed on a different planet from the one I grew up on.
The Boi does like to dress up.
————> from THE DAILY WIRE
‘Chrystia Freeland, Canada’s finance minister, later said that banks and other financial institutions in Canada have the authority to “temporarily cease providing financial services where the institution suspects that an account is being used to further the illegal blockades and occupations. This order covers both personal and corporate accounts.”
Crowd-funding platforms, which protesters have used to sustain their weeks-long demonstrations, would fall under the enforcement of “Canada’s anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules,” Freeland said.
“These changes cover all forms of transactions,” she said. “The illegal blockades have highlighted the fact that crowd-funding platforms and some of the payment service providers they use are not fully captured under the proceeds of the Crime and Terrorist Financing Act.”
Now that GSG got Dox/Hacked.
Let’s see Freeland’s phone metadata, the CTFA’s metadata and see if any/All were political motivation to conspire with WEF/CCP and any Fascist Canadian Govt proxie/Actors attacking American Companies like GSG because of this attack by China with TrueDope.
They’ve made it clear that they will be going after “personal bank accounts” of Canadians who support the truckers. They will surely start with the Convoy’s good faith negotiators then go after the donors to GSG who were doxxed by leftwing hackers recently.
“The illegal blockades have highlighted the fact that crowd-funding platforms and some of the payment service providers they use are not fully captured under the proceeds of the Crime and Terrorist Financing Act.”
————————-
So, peaceful protesting is now a crime of terror? If they want terrorism, then give it to ’em.
The gutless little prick just declared war on his own people.
Expand it outward now. Who attacked GSG and the one before that GFM.
All because people want FREEDOM.
All because TrueDope/WEF/CCP wants you jabbed
Ottawa is the first domino. If (and when) it falls to patriotic Canadians others will follow. This is what the globalists are fighting to prevent. Freedom must win or we all become slaves.
“We should never forget that everything Adolf Hitler did in Germany was “legal” and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was “illegal.”” – Martin Luther King, Letter from a Birmingham Jail
Here’s a big bitter pill I think applies to US and Canada, its okay for leftists to violently protest even when right leaning governments are in charge. Peaceful protests by the right will not be permitted by the same ostensibly right leaning govt. Mark my words.
There might be a bird with two wings but the right one is shorter and we keep flying in circles to the left.
Turdeau’s formal educai0n from Wiki (focus on Drama) – what else can you expect? If you look for namby-pamby on the web there should be a picture of Turdeau in the definition…. Liberal teacher loser with ZERO testicular virility personified.
“Born in Ottawa, Trudeau attended Collège Jean-de-Brébeuf, graduated from McGill University in 1994 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in literature, then in 1998 acquired a Bachelor of Education degree from the University of British Columbia. After graduating he taught French, humanities, math and drama at the secondary school level in Vancouver. Initially relocating back to Montreal in 2002 to further his studies; advocacy work related to youth and environmental issues would be his primary focus serving as chair for the youth charity Katimavik and as director of the not-for-profit Canadian Avalanche Association. In 2006, he was appointed as chair of the Liberal Party’s Task Force on Youth Renewal.”
Well, considering they declared war on their citizens two years ago, with no end in sight, at least they are finally willing to put their name on it.
Disgusting filth.
That is the problem of centralized banking..small banks has been swallowed by behemoth
The only emergency war measures act the Canadians MUST invoke is removing their Prime Minister Justin Trudeau from office immediately
Well, since the truck drivers aren’t making money now, and people have made note of the point they were trying to make, perhaps it’s time to go home.
Let them rest in a warm house with stretch out room, park their trucks and let what few drivers are left to supply the country with their wants and needs.
Just refuse to haul anything in to, out of or around the country.
No food, no fuel of any type, no tows, sorry about your luck.
According to information liberation, rcmp is now going about vandalizing heavy equipment on private property because they “could” be used in the protest.
Somebody not sure how to deal with people calling their bluff, eh justine?
So Brandeaux the Fascist is going to cause a run on the banks and empty the food shelves when the Truckers retreat and go on Strike due to his Martial Law?
Enjoy the chaos, Fool,…. you career is almost over now. Can’t deal with peaceful protesting truckers,… try dealing with hungry, angry mobs with no food on their shelves.
Sic semper tyranis
They got away with grabbing freedoms at the start of the plandemic… this was their ultimate goal.
A Chief Executive, Prime Minister, or President should never have police forces under his direct or indirect control. It is the hammer they will eventually use to maintain tyranny and subjugate the citizen.
Like all tin pot dictators, Justin Trudeau just declared Martial Law in Canada – when you cannot negotiate – crush them with violence and by stealing from them. Shades of Communist Russia before the wall came down. Trudeau just erected a wall of his own design by declaring war on the citizens of Canada. How’d that work out for Muamar Ghadifi and Sadam Hussein?
When governments turn to violence against their own citizens during a peaceful protest then you KNOW that their government has failed and that the people WILL fight back. Steal their bank accounts? Steal their homes, Steal their income, Steal their possessions; but most of all STEAL THEIR FREEDOM!
Probably the dumbest move of his limp wristed life!
Thank God Trudeau wasn’t in power during the many times Canadians have fought side by side with us & other allies for freedom!
The US is in a pile of
doo doo of our own now with a faux president & administration.
Given the world wide extent of this fascist attempt to take away all freedom, it’s obvious this has been in the works for a long time.
Am I the only one who remembers Nazi Germany? Tho only 5 when it ended, can’t imagine anyone who was alive or ever really read history, wouldn’t vow it never happened again – but it has!
The forced injections, lockdowns, job losses, travel restraints, masks, endless threats, church & school closings, forbidding freedom of speech, confiscation of materials, …these are the weapons governments are using to destroy freedom!
They will never succeed, but care nothing of lives lost in their vile attempt to control us.
Trudeau will have to bring in Cuban military, just as Venezuelan Maduro did. It seems the Venezuelan military were hesitant to fire upon their friends and family.
So who is Canada at war with? Nobody.
Maybe Trudeau will join Biden’s war in Ukraine for an excuse?
Total “Karen” move by an out of touch leader.
Still can’t remember a liberal party leader so out of touch with working citizens.
Canadians will no longer trust Trudeau.
Various doctors say families of loved ones hospitalized with covid19 are resorting to desperate measures when approved treatments(slow death protocols) have failed. When it’s not too late, some have seen tremendous success by sneaking Ivermectin medication prohibited by hospitals to patients. It is really sad situation what has our country become.

Trudeau is in the minority as he did not win the election. He is probably taking orders from the Davos leadership.
