The War Measures Act, enacted in Canada during times of war or national emergency, granted the Prime Minister and the Cabinet extensive powers to maintain security and order. This included the authority to censor communications, control transportation and trade, intern individuals, and suspend civil liberties. The Act allowed the government to act swiftly and decisively without the usual parliamentary oversight, enabling it to respond to perceived threats to national security. These powers were notably invoked during World War I, World War II, and the October Crisis of 1970.
