#1 This article is the most coherent one I've found on this issue. There has been so much utter bilge and garbage costed by the MSM and by internet commenters otherwise.

#2 What led up to the action, from the day before: Senate of Canada growing frustrated by pressure to rubber stamp Emergencies Act: Senators are being asked to make decisions on the basis of 'secret information' for a crisis 'that is not visible'

#5 Let's not ignore the bank run he started. I'm sure the heads of the major banks suddenly realized the consequences of what they had done and got someone's ear.

#6 Yes. A safe bet that the third phone call from a bank CEO saying "there's no piece of paper the gummint can issue to reverse a bank run" got somebody's attention.

#7 Which 'laws and bylaws' enacted during the Emogencies Act are those; and do they count since they were put in place during the Emogency; need to be ratified?

That would seem right, or are we 21st century lawing it?

#9 As an American, I have never thought about having a Canadian bank account. But if I or anyone else ever did, here's Exhibit A as to why NOT to do it.

#10 So if the act was revoked, does that expose the govt to liabilities for damages and cancel any charges against the truckers and others? It wasnt allowed to expire, but revoked.
Could get interesting

#11 It wasn't revoked, it never went into effect. On paper, anyway.

#12 Better to get a Swiss bank account. Or Cayman.
