OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) –– Prominent Canadian lawyers, pundits and politicians blasted today’s ruling by Liberal-friendly Justice Paul Rouleau, which outright exonerated Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government’s use of the Emergencies Act (EA) to crush the Freedom Convoy last year.
“So it appears very clear that the judiciary in Canada is now as compromised as the government itself,” tweeted famed Canadian psychologist and author Jordan Peterson.

Elaborating, Peterson pulled no punches, adding:
The fact that the Canadian “authorities” have concluded that the Trucker convoy conspired an insurrection severe enough to warrant war measures action by the feds should strike horror into the heart of every Canadian who values freedom.

This means, just to clear, that all future governments, conservative to socialist, can now use the full might of the state against all who dare to raise a protest.
