Stealing this from a post on Mastodon, just to provide some clarity.

  1. The judge said he would have supported invoking #EmergenciesAct had he been sitting at the cabinet table. With the information they had at the time, Cabinet did the right thing.

  2. It's only with the benefit of hindsight, which the federal cabinet did not have, that the judge determines they erred.

  3. Invoking the Act in #Ottawa & #Ontario was proper. He merely disputes invoking it nation-wide.
