#EmergenciesAct Inquiry is close as we'll ever get to an investigation into what caused/enabled/funded an occupation of our nation's capital & border blockades costing our country BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. It must be about more than Trudeau's decision or it will fail us all

#EmergenciesActInquiry has to dig into all of this or it festers and becomes worse. That's not refutable. It couldn't be more important.

"Things a good #PublicInquiry will reveal:

1) Primarily a policing failure due to antivax police

2) Strong white supremacist connects

3) Heavy American funding that also funded #January6

4) Russian sourcing of disinfo campaign

5) Widespread "Conservative" party complicity

Disgraced & booted #JasonKenney has no shame & never has. Any accounting of these events that doesn't include how Canada's "#Conservatives" fearmongered/hatefarmed under-informed antivaxers into full fledged convoy nutters is a failure.

*WELL* documented: every step of the way #AntivaxConvoy was (if not outright created) enabled, platformed, amplified &/or exacerbated by just about whatever "Conservative" was in earshot for nakedly partisan reasons. They now fundraise off Trudeau's cleanup of their own mess🀨

Any FULL accounting of the costly & dangerous #AntivaxOccupations (which #EmeergenciesAct almost certainly will NOT be) must include the "Conservative" Party's wholesale embracement of that movement from start-to-finish. There's no way around it. It's the quickest path to the highest reaches of power in that party these days. #Poilievre parlayed AntiVax Occupations into becoming just one election away from #PrimeMinister of #Canada.

Amongst the 1st things
#CandiceBergen did as new "Conservative" party interim leader was to say the following to her senior MPs:

β€œI don’t think we should be asking them to go home. I understand the mood may shift soon. So we need to turn this into the PMs problem."

#StephenHarper *praised* her leadership. Are we going to pretend Canada's "Conservative" party hasn't embraced EXTREMISM from head to toe?

All of which takes us back to #Rouleau's statement on the focus of #EmergenciesActInquiry being what PM #Trudeau did. It's not good enough. Canadians deserve a FULL accounting. It was an ATTACK on ALL OF US. We were a GLOBAL JOKE. Cost us BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. What I'm asking is if that's all he's doing when do Canadians get the rest of it? Because my guess is THIS IS IT, BABY. Am I wrong?

With #EmergenciesActInquiry's stated focus being PM #Trudeau's invocation of the act itself, when, if ever, will Canadians get THE REST OF THE ANSWERS we deserve? If ALL villains aren't held to full account, what prevents it from happening again? Or getting even worse?

It's not enough for provinces to send lawyers. We need to hear from Premiers and convoy-supporting political leaders UNDER OATH. Canadians deserve that. Our downtown & borders were occupied, our people harassed/terrorized & the whole thing cost us billions. It's about ACCOUNTABILITY.

#OPP: "The apparent support from Canadian political figures is certain to further embolden those organizing and participating in the blockade, lending credibility and validating their tactics."

Poilievre: "Hold my juicebox"

****

They need to be asked under oath. We deserve that. Emergencies Act Inquiry is not enough

#Poilievre's diaper's in a twist the media'd dare ask about his heavy support for the wildly unpopular #FreedomConvoy* insurrectionists that fuelled his rise to power in an increasingly far right "Conservative" party. Tough. Answer for it, creepo

@TheGentYYC This Public Inquiry was required by, and very narrowly defined in, the Emergencies Act.

63 (1) The Governor in Council shall, within sixty days after the expiration or revocation of a declaration of emergency, cause an inquiry to be held into the circumstances that led to the declaration being issued and the measures taken for dealing with the emergency.

It was not mandated to find out who caused or enabled the emergency.
#EmergenciesAct #PublicInquiry

@wiebepaul Yes. I agree, which is why it's insufficient and was always going to be

@TheGentYYC @wiebepaul Maybe still-not-dead and perennial boil on the anus of humanity, #PrestonManning will get to the bottom of it?

@TheGentYYC Turns out religion school drop outs with no real world experience, like #JasonKenney, have enough education to get a plum job at #Calgary's #BennetJones law firm. I wonder if anyone there is actually qualified? Does Jay live in their basement?

#Calgary #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

@TheGentYYC Funny how Canadian #Conservatives are all in with #Putin these days. Perhaps #PierePoilevre could shed light on why that is? How about it #ConservativePartyofCanada, can you answer anything?
