Time is of the essence on this call to action: Today and tomorrow. The House of Commons is on break by Friday so the debate will be rushed.

***

Hello Freedom Fighters,

Here’s some more information and encouragement to act now. Bless you all.

It’s essential that every one of us telephones their MP (BOTH offices – local & Ottawa) and as many other MPs and senators (105, so suggest to begin with Independent — they listen and read) as possible now to protest the Emergencies Act.

Letters/emails show our views, but phoning is far more powerful.

Follow-up call with an email please so it’s documented.

The EA was proposed on Monday, Feb. 14, but must be confirmed or withdrawn by a motion within seven days. Trudeau wants that motion made this week, before the House of Commons goes on a break for a week on Friday. We have only today or tomorrow to contact the members.

This is a crucial moment in the history of Canada. Speak up now. You can make a difference to the peace and freedom of this country.

Thanks for your phone calls and follow-up emails. May Canada be free and at peace.

Suggestions on what to say to MPs and Senators

The Emergencies Act is for a crisis which threatens the entire country of Canada. There is no threat to the country. The truckers are completely peaceful, both in Ottawa and at the border protests.

The Emergencies Act would give Justin Trudeau totalitarian power, obliterating human rights and allowing him to arrest and imprison anyone without trial. This is totally unjustified by anything that has happened in recent weeks.

Here is the section which defines “National Emergency”. The current situation does NOT qualify as a National Emergency.

“National emergency

3 For the purposes of this Act, a national emergency is an urgent and critical situation of a temporary nature that

(a) seriously endangers the lives, health or safety of Canadians and is of such proportions or nature as to exceed the capacity or authority of a province to deal with it, or

(b) seriously threatens the ability of the Government of Canada to preserve the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of Canada

and that cannot be effectively dealt with under any other law of Canada.”

Feds bringing emergency declaration to Parliament ‘imminently’

See this.

“As part of the parliamentary oversight requirements in invoking these powers, the government must table a motion in both the House and Senate within seven sitting days outlining why federal officials feel the powers are required and detailing what specific measures will be taken, to allow the two parliamentary bodies to confirm it.”

Here are a few suggested points to make when speaking with and follow-up email to your MP in both offices (local & Ottawa).

1. Section 3 of the Emergencies Act spells out the circumstances under which it may be invoked.

These are:

a. A national emergency that seriously endangers the lives, health or safety of Canadians and is of such proportions or nature as to exceed the capacity or authority of a province to deal with it, or

b. A national emergency that seriously threatens the ability of the Government of Canada to preserve the sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity of Canada.

Neither of these conditions are met.
