The Public Order Emergency Commission (#POEC) hearings have now moved to the policy stage. The Canadian Constitution Foundations has 10 recommendations on how to reform the federal Emergencies Act so it can never again be abused.
The recommendations are the following:
1. We recommend that to do this, there must be an exhaustion of provincial and territorial authorities
2. We recommend the creation of A Parliamentary Review Committee to provide real-time oversight
3. We recommend that the government be required to explain why existing legal tools fell short
4. We recommend the law be reformed to create Super-majority requirements to confirm a declaration of emergency
5. We recommend reforms to require Provincial confirmation of a declaration of emergency
6. We recommend creating the requirement for Supreme Court of Canada review
7. We also recommend expedited review of national security and cabinet privilege
8. We recommend that the inquiry must occur under the Inquiries Act so a proper investigation can take place
9. We also recommend that the inquiry into declarations of an emergency should be given 18 months to do its work
10. And finally, we recommend that the head of the inquiry should be appointed by an impartial party
