Trudeau is accused of bringing 'martial law' to Canada  by invoking emergency powers to crack  down on Freedom Convoy and freeze protesters' bank accounts: Mounties arrest 11 and find cache of weapons at border

• Under the Emergencies Act, the government introduced measures intended to cut off protesters' funding 
• PM Justin Trudeau invoked the country's Emergencies Act on Monday afternoon
• The Canadian Civil Liberties Association said the government had not met the standard for invoking the Emergencies Act
• Tucker Carlson also blasted its invocation, saying Trudeau had vastly overstepped the mark  
• The act is intended to deal with threats to 'sovereignty, security and territorial integrity,' the group said
• Premiers of Alberta, Manitoba, Quebec, and Saskatchewan spoke out opposing Trudeau's extraordinary plan  
• The officials, who are the Canadian equivalent of state governors, called the plan a dangerous overreach  
• The 1988 Emergencies Act allows the federal government to override the provinces with special measures
• Previously known as the the War Measures Act, has been used only once before in peacetime
