Trump has signed a flurry of executive orders. What are they and does Canada have an equivalent?

The article from MSN discusses the recent executive orders signed by former U.S. President Donald Trump, focusing on their implications and whether Canada has similar mechanisms. Trump's executive orders covered a range of topics from immigration restrictions to environmental deregulation. These orders are directives from the President that have the force of law, although they can be challenged in court or reversed by subsequent administrations. In Canada, while there isn't a direct equivalent to the U.S. executive order, the Prime Minister can issue directives through Orders-in-Council, which are decisions made by the federal cabinet. These are used for similar purposes like policy implementation or emergency measures but require cabinet approval and are subject to parliamentary oversight. The article highlights key differences in how executive power is exercised in both countries, noting that Canadian mechanisms tend to involve more collective decision-making and less unilateral action by the head of government.
