The public inquiry into the federal government’s use of the Emergencies Act will continue hearing about protests that took place at an Alberta border crossing earlier this year in support of the “Freedom Convoy.”
Jim Willett, mayor of Coutts, Alta., is expected to testify Wednesday about the effect protests had on the border town he represents.
Ontario deputy solicitor general Mario De Tommaso is also expected to speak following Willett.
Fort Macleod, Alta., councillor Marco Van Huigenbos, who was charged with mischief for his role in the Alberta blockade, told the commission Tuesday he was there to demand representatives from the government talk to protesters about pandemic mandates.
The Public Order Emergency Commission is examining the Liberal government’s decision to invoke the act and holding hearings in Ottawa until Nov. 25.
