Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau divided Canadians by his speech and actions against the Freedom Convoy, despite Justice Paul Rouleau’s conclusion that the use of the Emergencies Act to clear convoy protests was justifiable.

At a press conference in Calgary on Feb. 17, Poilievre didn’t refute Rouleau’s finding, but accused the governing Liberals of using division tactics rather than focusing on important national issues.
