Caution: This Canadian legal encyclopedia contains clearly written statements of Canadian legal principle based on common law and legislation regarding State of Emergency and other areas of law in Canada . But, legal information is not the same as legal advice (which involves applying laws, about State of Emergency and other topics, to particular individuals and organizations and their particular circumstances). It is always a good idea to consult with an attorney to obtain advice as to how the law (in relation to State of Emergency and other legal subjects) should be interpreted in light of the particularities of your situation. Also, you should be aware that legal aspects impacting State of Emergency may change over time and, as such the information contained in this Canadian legal encyclopedia may become out of date.
