We don’t know if this is true, but we do know that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is popping out of his undisclosed location to deliver remarks alongside Minister of Emergency Preparedness Bill Blair. This isn’t the first we’ve heard of Trudeau and local law enforcement bringing in the military, so who knows?
BREAKING: Trudeau has updated his schedule, and will likely invoke martial law at 4:30 local time. Military officials have been consulted by Trudeau's staff. pic.twitter.com/cePykqV5km

Sounds like every truck horn in the city should sound and keep sound just then.

Masks don't work at all from an aggregate perspective.
The vaccine does zip for transmission.
What are we trying to accomplish?

Control. Simple. Also establishing precedence.

Trudeau can’t back down now and lose (black) face.

No one is declaring martial law. Please take a civics class.

Some are saying it’s not martial law, but the Emergencies Act, which according to the CDC “gives special powers to respond to emergency scenarios affecting public welfare (natural disasters, disease outbreaks), public order (civil unrest), international emergencies or war emergencies.”
Is honking civil unrest? Bouncy castles? Street hockey?
Maybe if they start looting

Which is the “War Measures Act”. They only changed the name. It’s martial law no matter which name is used.

Wow they are really making a show of this

Not everyone’s on board:
BREAKING: Premiers of Alberta, Manitoba, Quebec, and Saskatchewan oppose Trudeau decision to invoke the Emergencies Act on the truckers
— Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 (@JackPosobiec) February 14, 2022
Trudeau calls everyone he doesn’t like a “Nazi”. But he’s the one who is about to suspend civil liberties to crush a peaceful protest led by moms and dads across the country.

The thing is, we won’t have to wait long to find out if Trudeau’s declaring “martial law” on invoking the Emergencies Act. Either way, he’s not budging on vaccine mandates.
