Parliament approves Trudeau's use of Emergencies Act in response to freedom protests The vote was 185 in favor to 151 against and was split along party lines.
[PostMillennial] A vote in Canada's Parliament on Monday night resulted in the confirmation of Prime Minister Trudeau's declaration of the Emergencies Act over the freedom protests that have gripped the nation for three weeks. The vote was 185 in favor to 151 against.Right after the vote, Interim Conservative Leader Candice Bergen rose to issue a motion to rescind the declaration, and stated that Conservatives would continue fighting for Canadians' rights. The vote was split along party lines, with the Liberals and NDP voting in favor of Trudeau's declaration of the Emergencies Act, and Conservatives and Bloc Quebec opposed. NDP leader Jagmeet Singh said that he would endorse the Act, if reluctantly. So much for popular support for the truckers. Posted by: The Walking Unvaxed 2022-02-23 |
