PM Justin Trudeau

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has revoked the Emergencies Act.

Trudeau had said right up until yesterday that the government would not keep the Act in effect a moment longer than needed.

Today he says that at the time, it was the right thing to do but there is no longer a state of emergency.

He adds existing laws are sufficient to keep Canadians safe.

The Act was invoked to end the weeks of truck protests against government COVID-19 health measures and vaccine mandates.

Trudeau says there will be an inquiry into the whole process.
