  • “LILLEY: Carney-appointed judge rejects Ontario cash bail rule in human trafficking caseToronto Sun”This sort of headline really bothers me because it is inferring, American style, that our Judges are not impartial and are beholden or loyal to whatever political party or politician appointed them. It is incorrect, misleading and offensive. Canada is not America. Let’s keep it that way.

That’s right – the poor, the homeless, the ill and the disadvantaged will be jailed because they don’t have money. This is Doug FORD’S Ontario, even though criminal law is federal jurisdiction, not provincial. This is unconstitutional, hateful and a step towards Trumpism. After all, FORD has to populate his new jails. Speak up about this tragedy. Let Doug FORD know!
