Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Chrystia Freeland testified before the special committee reviewing the Emergencies Act on June 14 but left many questions unanswered, causing some parliamentarians to express frustration.

Even when asked repeatedly Chrystia Freeland wouldn’t say whose idea it was to invoke the Emergencies Act, but said that she will personally take responsibility for it.

It was a collective decision. But at that time, and today I’m talking of the reality for me, I would like to take the personal responsibility for that decision. It was my opinion. It was it was the correct decision.

Why? Because it’s not science. It’s political science.

MP Michael Barrett said “The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) was unable to provide any evidence to support continuing Canada’s extreme federal vaccine mandates and other Covid-19 measures, are you able to provide us today with the metrics that are being used to sustain or to allow those restrictions to expire at the end of the month.”

 

MP Michael Barrett indicated that what he is looking for specifically is if the Government can provide what the goalposts are.

Several airline groups have called on the Liberals to immediately scrap the restrictions which they say are the cause of the issues, including the Canadian Travel & Tourism Roundtable and the CEO of Westjet.

Now we know why Mounties didn’t charge him. They thought it would hurt public interest to jail someone as powerful as him. Did Justin Trudeau give himself a free pass to avoid criminal charges? Canadians deserve to know the truth. RCMP commissioner Brenda Lucki should be hauled into parliamentary committee to answer questions as to why charges against Justin Trudeau in the Aga Khan affair never materialized. Is the Prime Minister above the law?

Conservatives accuse in the House of Commons that the Prime Minister was found guilty on four sections of the conflict of interest Act and that the only reason the RCMP didn’t charge him was because he is the prime minister.  The RCMP said the Prime Minister was off the hook because he could have granted himself permission to accept a luxurious vacation gift worth $215,000.
