As much as I agree with these two contrarians, I believe Trudeau was within his rights to prorogue. The proroguation is clearly just to run the Liberal leadership race, but sadly the PM is allowed to do that.
[David MacKinnon and Aris Lavranos] argued Trudeau’s decision effectively denies Parliament, without reasonable justification, the ability to carry out its constitutional functions as a legislature.
In particular, the application said, prorogation prevents Parliament from dealing “quickly and decisively” with especially pressing issues, including the effects of Trump’s threatened tariffs.
They suggest the true intention of prorogation was to stymie efforts of opposition parties to bring a motion of non-confidence in the Liberal government.
Ugh, grifters.
