Perdana Menteri Justin Trudeau mengatakan pemerintah dapat mencabut Undang-Undang Darurat sekarang karena krisis di Ottawa dan penyeberangan perbatasan Kanada telah mereda.

Trudeau meminta Undang-Undang Darurat, yang menggantikan Undang-Undang Langkah Perang pada tahun 1988, untuk pertama kalinya pekan lalu, mengatakan polisi membutuhkan bantuan ekstra untuk mengakhiri blokade yang telah berlangsung di pusat kota Ottawa selama berminggu-minggu dan telah menyebar ke kunci Kanada-AS. penyeberangan perbatasan.

Pada hari Senin, Trudeau mengatakan kekuatan luar biasa yang dibatasi waktu yang diberikan oleh Undang-Undang Darurat masih diperlukan karena pemerintahnya khawatir tentang blokade yang kembali.

Trudeau sekarang mengatakan bahwa perintah itu sekarang telah dipulihkan dan bahwa sementara ancaman tetap ada, polisi dan undang-undang yang ada akan cukup untuk mencegah pekerjaan lain.

House of Commons mengeluarkan mosi untuk menyetujui langkah-langkah di bawah undang-undang senin malam, dengan NDP memberikan suara mendukung bersama pemerintah Liberal minoritas.

Undang-undang tersebut memberi polisi kekuatan untuk menunjuk zona larangan bepergian di sekitar infrastruktur penting seperti Parliament Hill, penyeberangan perbatasan dan jembatan.

Peraturan di bawah undang-undang tersebut juga memberikan wewenang untuk membuat truk derek menjadi layanan penting, dan mengharuskan bank untuk membekukan rekening orang-orang yang berpartisipasi secara langsung atau tidak langsung dalam protes.

Polisi di Ottawa menggunakan kekuatan-kekuatan itu selama akhir pekan untuk mendorong demonstran keluar dari inti dalam operasi besar-besaran multi-hari.

Pusat kota Ottawa tetap berada di bawah pengawasan polisi yang berat. Pos pemeriksaan di seluruh inti, di mana kantor parlemen dan jalan-jalan sekitarnya dipagari, diperkirakan akan tetap sepanjang akhir pekan.

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the government can revoke the Emergencies Act now that the crisis in Ottawa and Canada's border crossings has calmed down.

Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act, which replaced the War Measures Act in 1988, for the first time last week, saying police needed extra help to end blockades that had been ongoing in downtown Ottawa for weeks and had spread to key Canada-U.S. border crossings.

On Monday, Trudeau said the time-limited, extraordinary powers granted by the Emergencies Act were still needed because his government was worried about blockades returning.

Trudeau now says that order has now been restored and that while threats remain, police and existing legislation will be enough to prevent other occupations.

The House of Commons passed a motion to approve the measures under the act Monday evening, with the NDP voting in favour alongside the minority Liberal government.

The legislation gave police the power to designate no-go zones around critical infrastructure like Parliament Hill, border crossings and bridges.

Regulations under the act also granted powers to make tow trucks into essential services, and require banks to freeze accounts of people participating directly or indirectly in the protest.

Police in Ottawa used those powers over the weekend to push demonstrators out of the core in a massive, multi-day operation.

Downtown Ottawa remains under heavy police supervision. Checkpoints throughout the core, where the parliamentary precinct and surround streets are fenced off, are expected to remain throughout the weekend.

Protes yang sedang berlangsung di Hong Kong telah mencapai "titik puncak" dan Singapura menyaksikan perkembangan "dengan keprihatinan". - The ongoing protests in Hong Kong have reached a “breaking point” and Singapore is watching the developments “with concern”, said Trade and Industry Minister Chan Chun Sing on Monday (Nov 18). “Unless calm is restored, dialogue commences and constructive actions taken, there will be grave doubts about Hong Kong's future and the sustainability of its current governance model,” said Mr Chan in his comments to reporters at The Treasury. Hong Kong has been rocked by months of unprecedented protests, which started initially from opposition to a controversial extradition Bill, but later evolved into a wider movement calling for democratic reforms and a halt to sliding freedoms under Chinese rule. Clashes between protesters and police have turned increasingly violent, with schools emerging as the new battleground in recent days. “We watch with concern the deterioration of the situation in Hong Kong. This is especially so for those of us with relatives in Hong Kong,” said Mr Chan. He added that Hong Kong's continued success as an economic and financial hub is important for the region and the world, including Singapore. “We wish Hong Kong the very best and sincerely hope that the situation will improve soon,” he said.FOUR LESSONS FOR SINGAPOREMr Chan cautioned that what has happened in Hong Kong can “easily happen” to Singapore if the country is complacent. He also explained four lessons that Singapore can draw from the recent uncertainties in Hong Kong. The first is to have a well-functioning political system, which works closely with the public service to anticipate challenges, execute policies well, resolve problems and improve people's lives. “Regardless of political systems and party interests, the exercise of leadership must be to put people’s and country’s interests foremost,” the minister said. Feedback channels will also be required to enable responsive and responsible governance, he added. “Only with a well-functioning political system, the right political culture and a well-oiled feedback-to-action mechanism can we make adjustments to policies as necessary, execute decisively and communicate effectively.” “Today, too many governments and societies are too focused on the immediate and domestic, without sufficient considerations for the future or external.” As an example, he cited how the access to affordable housing and essential services is fundamental to keeping society stable. “The transfer of land ownership and properties across generations cannot be at the expense of depriving future generations’ opportunities to be rewarded based on hard work and capabilities. It cannot be that those who are rich first will be rich forever without due effort.” Mr Chan noted how there have been suggestions for Singapore to include land sales proceeds in the Budget and allow private developers land bank for longer periods so as to complete projects. “Our rules put national developments, especially public housing, as priority,” he elaborated. “We are careful to not distort incentives for Government to use land sales to maximise profits. Otherwise, it is the public that will ultimately pay. We are also careful to not let private developers’ interest override wider public interest. “Revenue from long-term land sales goes into our reserves to benefit future generations. This is the discipline we adhere to,” he said. Mr Chan then moved on to the third lesson on social cohesion and conflict resolution. “Unity amidst diversity requires all parties to bear in mind the wider good of the country, while championing the respective wants of specific communities. “To insist on maximal individual gains, at the expense of the common and collective good, cannot be the Singapore way,” he said. The “Singapore way” also includes dialogue and constructive actions, instead of violence, when it comes to resolving problems. Mr Chan stressed that conflict resolution requires all parties to take actions that are responsible and constructive. Singaporeans are also ultimately responsible for our their future. “Regardless of what others say, we must bear the responsibilities and consequences of our own choices and actions. This is why we are against foreign interference in domestic politics,” he said. Lastly, the minister noted that it is never easy for small city-states to survive and thrive without a conventional hinterland for supplies, markets and opportunities. “Singapore will have to pick up the pieces ourselves should things go badly wrong,” he said. Therefore, Singapore's continued relevance to the world is “never a given” and the country must continue to work hard, distinguish itself and stay exceptional amid global uncertainties. This includes growing opportunities for local enterprises and workers, as well as providing value to regional and global geo-strategic affairs with principled perspectives and clear-eyed analysis of the challenges and opportunities, among others.
