We discuss the prorogation of the government and whether Canada can be changed through the current framework.

James Manson is a constitutional lawyer representing the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF) in its lawsuit against the Canadian government challenging Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s decision to prorogue Parliament in January 2025. Manson acted as one of the lead counsel for the plaintiffs, David MacKinnon and Aris Lavranos, two Nova Scotia residents who sought a Federal Court declaration that Trudeau’s prorogation was unlawful and unreasonable.

Bruce Pardy is a Canadian legal scholar, professor of law at Queen’s University, and a prominent commentator on constitutional rights, freedoms, and the rule of law. Known for his classically liberal perspective, he champions principles such as equal application of the law, negative rights, private property, limited government, and the separation of powers. Pardy is an outspoken critic of legal progressivism, social justice movements, and the discretionary administrative state, arguing that these undermine Canada’s legal traditions.
