Justice Wagner refuses to recuse himself from Emergencies Act appeal
Wagner claims his previously stated negative comments on the Freedom Convoy won’t affect the appeal process.
Chief Justice Richard Wagner has denied a request to recuse himself from the Emergencies Act case, despite the fact that he was an outspoken critic of the 2022 Freedom Convoy protest against the COVID-19 pandemic mandates.
Wagner claims his previously stated position won’t affect the Liberals’ request to appeal a previous decision that its use of the Emergencies Act was unconstitutional.
