Breaking: Doug Ford, Sylvia Jones don't have to testify at Emergencies Act inquiry, judge rules.
Justice Simon Fothergill has granted a stay of the public inquiry commission’s summons for Ford and Jones to appear at the hearings into the federal law used to end last winter’s so-called “Freedom Convoy” protest in Ottawa.
“This is a federal inquiry about the federal government using the rederal Emergencies Act. It’s not the province,” Ford told reporters Monday at Queen’s Park before Fothergill’s ruling was released. In a four-hour hearing last Tuesday, lawyers for Ford and Jones argued that compelling them to appear would do “irreparable harm” to the independence of legislatures.
Ontario government lawyer Susan Keenan had argued that violating privilege would undermine the “separation of powers” from the federal government.
