    The Public Order Emergency Commission, was a public inquiry created by the Liberal government and Trudeau appointed a Justice to lead the commission. This commission found that the invocation of the emergency act was justified.

    However, later there was a federal court that found that it was unjustified.

    What’s the right answer? I don’t know, but I would think that the commission took a much more thorough look. We probably won’t have a single answer unless it goes to the Supreme Court.
