I'd like to know EXACTLY their reasoning for why the city of Ottawa, the province, and the feds feel they need these emergency powers.  What can't they do now, under the law, that they NEED to do to quell these already illegal acts that some of these truckers are doing.

Emergency powers are a license to violate the legal rights of citizens.  No warrants needed to search or seize etc.  These are very dangerous waters our governments are wading into.  The feds need to be watched.  There needs to be oversight and accountability for them too.
Well said.  They already have the authority to tow vehicles etc.  This is turning into a constitutional crisis, thanks to feckless Trudeau and the Ottawa police department.
