A federal judge has dismissed a legal challenge of Justin Trudeau's move to prorogue Parliament, concluding the prime minister did not exceed the bounds of his authority.
A federal court dismissed a challenge to Justin Trudeau's prorogation of Parliament, ruling he did not exceed his authority.

The court acknowledged a role in reviewing such advice but ultimately found the applicants' claims unsubstantiated.
