OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) – Seven Canadian provinces now oppose an Emergencies Act declaration made Monday by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who claims it is needed to stop the peaceful Freedom Convoy protesters in Ottawa.
The Premiers of Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Quebec were the first to oppose the extreme measures made by Trudeau.
Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe said Monday that his government does “not support the Trudeau government invoking the Emergencies Act.”
Alberta Premier Jason Kenney said Monday that he told “Prime Minister Trudeau that Alberta’s Government is opposed to the invocation of the federal Emergencies Act.”
Manitoba Premier Heather Stefanson said Trudeau’s declaration of the Emergencies Act was an “unnecessary” thing to do.
Quebec Premier Francois Legault said that he was “very clear” to Trudeau that “the Federal Emergencies Act should not, must not, apply in Quebec.”
A few days ago, Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston said that the Emergencies Act was not needed in his province.
New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs also said that he does not agree with the Emergencies Act being implemented.
Recently, Prince Edward Island Premier Dennis King said the Emergencies Act is not needed as well.
