A Federal Court in Canada ruled today that Turdeau’s invocation of the Emergencies Act to clear the truckers from Ottawa in February 2022 was unreasonable and infringed upon Canadians’ Charter rights. YIPPEE!

Justice Richard Mosley wrote “I have concluded that the decision to issue the Proclamation does not bear the hallmarks of reasonableness – justification, transparency and intelligibility – and was not justified in relation to the relevant factual and legal constraints that were required to be taken into consideration.”

Justice Mosley added that, while he had initially believed the Emergencies Act invocation was justified in response to an “unacceptable breakdown of public order,” arguments by the Canadian Constitution Foundation and Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms led him to see otherwise.

Mosley agreed with Turdeau’s claim that the situation was “critical” and required an urgent resolution by governments, but he did not agree with the conclusion that other laws in Canada could not have dealt with the protests, pointing out that the provincial governments of Quebec and Ontario had been able to deal with the protests on their own. “For these reasons, I conclude that there was no national emergency justifying the invocation of the Emergencies Act and the decision to do so was therefore unreasonable and ultra vires,” he wrote.

The judge also said Turdeau’s decision to freeze the bank accounts of some protestors was “not minimally impairing,” as the regulations applied everywhere in Canada, including in areas where protests were not happening, and because there were “less impairing alternatives available” to Turdeau.

Justice Mosley said the federal government’s economic orders violated protestors’ charter rights “by permitting unreasonable search and seizure of the financial information of designated persons and the freezing of their bank and credit card accounts.”

I can’t begin to express how happy I am about this decision, and even happier that Chrystia Freeland Deputy PM, is very unhappy about it. She stated that the feds will be appealing the decision to the Supreme Court of Canada.

The gnashing of teeth and liberal tears is delightful, isn’t it?

Chystia is a real life NAZI and very popular in European circles. Her complete lack of remorse should see her immediately escorted from government office and forever banned from holding a government office in the future, aleft stripped of any taxpayer government retirement perks from the year 2021, forward. The collection of a fine in the amount of her salary since 2021, in exchange for a three year prison sentence, seems fair.

Truly, one forever Fauchistonian! She is Not finished.

Same here, as you very well see. Only in the West, we the peoples of the West will dismiss and forget Treason, in exchange for some small attribution paid to a *recognition of errors” that criminally Enforced proclamations and shocking seizures, verbal abuse and brutality that Trumped all Charter Rights (and Human Rights)*. (I remember the horses being spurred through the people over some, even one wheelchair bound, for example.)

Where’s the justice and retribution?

We must demand more, or beware the ides of the proverbial March. These globalist overlords are Not finished, either.
Luciferians do not apologize, especially when no one and nothing interferes with their well being.

I’m looking at Justices Robertschev and Amy Kookie Barrett, here.🤡

Hang in there.
