Commissioner Rouleau ruled that Trudeau's use of the Emergencies Act was JUSTIFIED.

In the report, they kept saying that nobody had been seriously injured by law enforcement officers.

I was shot and people were trampled with horses...

1. Every police chief that testified before the Emergencies Act commission said the same thing: there was no need for martial law to handle the truckers. That’s the test in the law: a) a national emergency that b) can’t be handled by existing laws. This ruling is an inside job.

2. Of course the political establishment will cheer — one of their own has vindicated them. But this is devastating to already-weak public support for our legal, political and police systems. To the public, this is proof that the elites care about each other — not about the law.

3. Never before have our institutions been so distrusted or disrespected by the people. The pandemic broke our faith in experts; the lockdowns broke our faith in authority; the propaganda broke our faith in the media; and now judges are of no use against a rogue establishment.

4. When I was in law school, the Charter of Rights was treated as something on par with the Bible itself. This ruling (and every other lockdown ruling) has shown the Charter means nothing, not even to judges, if the government is punishing the “right” enemies. A disgrace.

5. Canada really is a country whose cabinet ministers muse about deploying tanks to crush women and children. It’s a place where bank presidents are all too happy to obey the regime and seize bank accounts of entire families if someone in that family embarrassed Trudeau.

Commissioner Paul Rouleau writes that he reached this conclusion "with reluctance." He further says that some of the federal government's emergency measures were not appropriate.

Rouleau finds that the asset freezing provisions in the emergency orders were appropriate and effective, though he thought there should have been a mechanism to have your accounts unfrozen after complying with the emergency orders.

Rouleau concedes it's unjust if someone had their account frozen because their spouse was involved in the convoy but shrugs because there's no way around it.

For some reason, Commissioner Rouleau decided to run interference for Justin Trudeau's "small fringe minority" comments, suggesting that he wasn't talking about the Convoy as a whole.

Rouleau admits that the legacy media amplified "misinformation and disinformation" about the Freedom Convoy.

Rouleau found no meaningful connection between the arrests in Coutts and what was happening in Ottawa, which directly contradicts Marco Mendicino's claims in justifying the use of the Emergencies Act.

Rouleau wrote that he wasn't bothered by prohibition on travel to downtown Ottawa generally but would have been if it extended to members of the media. Erm, Ottawa Police threatened journalists with arrest.
