Trudeau’s use of Emergencies Act to clear convoy protests unjustified, appeal court rules

January 16, 2026

The Federal Court of Appeal on Friday morning ruled that the Trudeau government’s 2022 invocation of the Emergencies Act in response to the weeks-long trucker protests in Ottawa and elsewhere was not legally justified.

Friday’s decision upholds a ruling from the Federal Court two years ago, which the federal government lost and subsequently appealed.
