(LifeSiteNews) — People’s Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier will continue his legal challenge against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s COVID travel vaccine mandates, despite the recent suspension of the restrictions, out of concern that the measures could be reinstated at a moment’s notice.
“It’s important to press ahead with legal challenges to the travel restrictions because they have only been ‘suspended’ and could come back at any time when Trudeau feels it is politically advantageous for him,” Bernier told LifeSiteNews.
“He decided to suspend them now because opposition to them keeps growing, including from MPs in his own party.”
Bernier noted that if COVID cases start to increase again in the fall, and Trudeau then decides he “needs to use mandates as a wedge issue again,” there is nothing that “prevents him from reimposing them.”
“Even if there is no scientific justification for it, as there clearly weren’t any just a few days ago when the Liberals were still defending them,” Bernier said.
On Tuesday, the Canadian federal government under Trudeau announced a “suspension” of a COVID jab mandate for travelers and federally regulated transportation workers.
