Could you explain something to me? You're saying that the use of the Emergencies Act was essential. However, following our request dated May 31, we were sent the daily reports from Ms. Jacqueline Bogden, then deputy secretary to the cabinet, Privy Council Office.
The report from February 11 at 8 a.m. states that “0 to 5 people are gathered on Parliament Hill” and that “a small number of individuals are gathered along Wellington Street and surrounding streets”.
The report from February 12 at 8 a.m. states again that “0 to 5 people are gathered on Parliament Hill” and that “a small number of individuals are gathered along Wellington Street and surrounding streets”.
The report from February 14 at 8:13 a.m. states that “there are no participants on Parliament Hill” and that “there are no participants along Wellington Street or surrounding streets”.
Are you telling me that you declared a state of emergency for that?
