“The Emergencies Act is the successor to the discredited War Measures act which was abused during the FLQ crisis in Quebec.” Sujit Choudhry, Co-counsel for the Canadian Constitution Foundation, testify that the Emergencies Act has the potential to be misused again.
Sujit Choudhry, says "now that the glass has been broken on the act" it can be used again. He floats the prospect of future gov't using it on climate protesters or anti-pipeline blockaders.
