Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with his cabinet Sunday night to discuss invoking the War Measures Act, renamed the Emergencies Act in 1988. According to reports from multiple media outlets in Ottawa, Trudeau told his caucus Monday that he now intends to do so.

This would put Canada under a state of martial law used only three times in Canada’s history: the First World War, the Second World War, and the FLQ terrorism crisis.

The Emergencies (War Measures) Act is an extraordinarily authoritarian piece of legislation, meant to combat violent enemies in an active state of war with Canada.

NOT A GIANT TAILGAGE PARTY!

Within seven days, the government must receive a “motion for confirmation” from Parliament. NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh has indicated that he is likely to give Trudeau the votes he needs to do this.

The act is intentionally vaguely worded. It has few specific powers listed in it, leaving its decrees to the prime minister’s cabinet to make.

We must caution ourselves against hyperbole in situations like this, but it is difficult to understate the severity of Trudeau’s actions here.

The Prime Minister of Canada has for all intents and purposes, declared war against what he deems to be a domestic enemy insurgency.

How can and must we respond to this? In short, we must make ourselves ungovernable. We must openly and brazenly defy the orders of the state at every opportunity that does not involve violence, property damage, or harm to others. In other words, civil disobedience.

So this is his declaration of war against them people.

Naomi Wolfe has predicted these governments would move from “consent of the governed” to regime politics and it appears to be happening.

Declaring war on his own countries citizens.

Has the votes. Smells like they’re scared of their own people.

[Veto!]

What a ridiculous little pronk.
That’s my dainty ladylike way of saying what I mean, and the word also fits.

“(a springbok or other antelope) leap in the air with an arched back and stiff legs, typically as a form of display or when threatened.”

Trudeau described the protesters’ crime as “unacceptable views.”

Orwell was close, but the current dystopia will not be enforced by thought police. It will be enforced by Trudeau’s thought military, under declaration of thought war.

Trudeau might make the treatment of our Jan, 6 Politcal Prisoners look tame.

Clearly the situation doesn’t not justify martial law, can the Canadian courts intervene? Will they?

“Clearly the situation doesn’t not justify martial law, can the Canadian courts intervene? Will they”?

I don’t know if the courts can intervene but all things considered, I’d say they will not.

Canada could soon have a huge number of Political Prisoners.

Brian Peckford, the last surviving signatory of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and well respected elder statesman, just appeared in a press conference with Tamara Lich. He is taking the government to court. This would be like one of the Founding Fathers telling the government, “You got our document wrong.”

Trudeau is showing true desperation. Wha happens next I don’t know.

[laplata]

Thanks for that encouraging news.

He’d better get a Fuherbunker.

Now used against his own citizens who are peacefully protesting.

“Wha happens next I don’t know.”

I do.
