As Prime Minister Justin Trudeau speaks with premiers about using the Emergencies Act to quell demonstrations that have paralyzed Ottawa's downtown core and several border crossings, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says he would support the legislation if it is tabled. Singh says borders need to be reopened immediately and the "seige" on Ottawa needs to end.
