Alberta Premier Jason Kenney and two civil and constitutional rights groups say they will continue to pursue legal challenges of the Canadian government’s use of the Emergencies Act even after the measure was revoked on Feb. 23.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the act on Feb. 14 to give authorities additional powers to deal with protests in Ottawa and elsewhere opposing the federal COVID-19 mandates. Trudeau revoked the act on Feb. 23, saying the emergency measures were no longer needed.
