Can the TrudeauTrial judge remain impartial?
Mike Campbell
The judge overseeing the Emergencies Act Inquiry has donated to and been a staffer of Trudeau’s Liberal party, raising concerns about his ability to remain impartial as the federal government is finally forced to answer for its use of emergency powers.
According to documents obtained by The Counter Signal in April — some of which mysteriously disappeared from the Elections Canada website — Justice Paul S. Rouleau has funnelled money to the Liberal party year after year.
This discovery came after Trudeau established the Public Order Emergency Commission and appointed Rouleau commissioner.
Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act in February for the first time in Canadian history to deal with Freedom Convoy demonstrators who peacefully protested COVID-19 restrictions in the nation’s capital.
Today, on day one of the inquiry, Rouleau said he would act impartial as a judge.
“I will keep an open mind throughout and only reach a conclusion after all the evidence is in,” he said.
In addition to his Liberal party donations, Toronto Sun columnist Brian Lilley reports that Rouleau has even worked for the Liberals.
