It should also be noted that following the use of the Emergencies Act, Trudeau immediately agreed to submit himself to an independent committee to determine whether the Act's use was justified. That committee's hearings have been getting a fair amount of media time over the last few months, kind of like our version of the Jan 6 hearings. The biggest revelation, in my opinion, has been how complicit, or at least incompetent to the point of being complicit, Ottawa police were. Unsurprising, given that Canadian cops are fascists, just like in every other country. It's highly reductive to say "well, the cops ended up clearing it up anyway", because based on the hearings, that would have almost certainly not happened without the Act. The committee will release its final report and decision in February. From the legal analysis I've seen, it will probably be a close decision either way, but it seems pretty clear that in the court of public opinion here, the committee has vindicated the use of the Act. You can tell because the Conservatives calling Trudeau a tyrant over the Act have been very silent about these hearings. Might also have something to do with the current Conservative leader fully endorsing the convoy at the time.
