Trudeau, cabinet defend cracking down on the Freedom Convoy — Emergencies Act Inquiry, Part 2
Manage episode 348703738 series 2332787
Over the course of six weeks of testimony, Canadians heard from police and municipal officials in Ottawa, provincial representatives and even from organizers of the so-called Freedom Convoy that occupied the capital for weeks earlier this year.
This was all building to the appearance by senior members of Justin Trudeau’s cabinet, and the PM himself, as they looked to justify the government’s use of the Emergencies Act to dismantle what had become a disruptive protest.
In the second of a special two-part look at the Emergencies Act inquiry, National Post political reporters Chris Nardi and Ryan Tumilty join the show to discuss how intelligence officials viewed the convoy, how blockades at the border in Alberta and Ontario changed the conversation, and how, ultimately, ministers explained the government’s actions.
Background reading: As Emergencies Act inquiry closes, commissioner says he has the evidence he needs
'No confidence' in police plan: Trudeau says he had no alternative to Emergencies Act
