'The federal government has not met the threshold necessary to invoke the Emergencies Act.'

'The federal government has not met the threshold necessary to invoke the Emergencies Act.'
#cdnpoli
'This law creates a high and clear standard for good reason: the Act allows government to bypass ordinary democratic processes.
The Emergencies Act can only be invoked when a situation "seriously threatens the ability of the Government of Canada to preserve the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of Canada" and when the situation "cannot be effectively dealt with under any other law of Canada"
'This standard has not been met.'
