CCF files materials in appeal of decision that found use of Emergencies Act<\/em> against truckers unlawful <\/a> In case you missed it, the Canadian Constitution Foundation filed its materials recently in the appeal of the Federal Court decision that declared that the Trudeau government’s unprecedented use of the Emergencies Act<\/em> in February 2022 was unlawful.
In a decision<\/a> released on January 23, 2024, Justice Mosley sided with the Canadian Constitution Foundation and other public interest litigants when he found that the Trudeau government\u2019s use of the Emergencies Act <\/em>was illegal and unconstitutional.
It remains just as important now as it did in 2022 to uphold this victory at every level of court the government wants to fight us in. A strong precedent needs to be upheld for when it is and isn’t appropriate to invoke the Act due to how much power this extraordinary law gives governments to sidestep rights and important democratic checks and balances.
THANK YOU again to all those who donated in support of this next stage of this case. Your support means this case continues with strong backing from Canadians. We raised over $65,000<\/strong> on top of the $40,000 matching offer provided by a generous CCF donor.
We expect the government to do everything in their power to stop us, and that may include tactics to increase costs and to delay the case, so this amazing support will directly ensure we win again at this higher level of court. Thank you so much.
You can find our filed materials for this appeal here<\/a>, and read our full press release here<\/a>.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
