Ontario Premier Doug Ford and his former solicitor general Sylvia Jones are going to court to fight an order to have them testify before the commission of inquiry into the Liberal government’s invocation of the Emergencies Act.

Ford defended the decision in the provincial legislature on Oct. 26, saying the inquiry is not a provincial issue.
