Former justice minister restores social media account after Rebel News' lawsuit shines light on cover-up allegations
On last night's episode of The Ezra Levant Show, Ezra discussed former justice minister David Lametti restoring his account on X after Rebel News launched a lawsuit against him seeking to preserve records pertaining to the Emergencies Act.
Since a Federal Court judge ruled that the invocation of the Emergencies Act was unconstitutional, Lametti's actions during the Freedom Convoy have been thrust under the spotlight. He resigned as an MP just days after the judge's ruling, and also deleted his account on X.

Speaking about Lametti, Ezra said, "He didn't fight, he didn't defend what he did. We just caught him with his hand in the cookie jar and he said 'you got me.' Before he even spoke to us he reinstated it which is pretty incredible when you think about it — how hard Guilbeault fought for two years."
Ezra went on to say, "But like I say, who could trust a Liberal politician? Would you trust David Lametti for anything? If he said it was raining I would go outside to check, I wouldn't believe him."
"Especially a Liberal as slippery as Lametti who was willing to sell out the whole country. We need a court order ensuring that he doesn't take it down again tomorrow, or next week, or next year. And to make sure that he doesn't go in and selectively delete anything including private direct messages to other cabinet ministers that we haven't even been allowed to see yet," he added.
