Several weeks after the "Freedom Convoy" began its occupation of Ottawa, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act for the first time since its inception. This subsequently led to the establishment of the Public Order Emergency Commission in April 2022, which was tasked with determining whether the invocation of the Act and the measures adopted under it were legally justifiable. After six weeks of hearings and in advance of the Commission's report, Cara Zwibel (Director, Fundamental Freedoms Program, CCLA) will provide a debrief of the Commission's work, and the legal and constitutional implications of the government's response to the Convoy.
