What do we make of this? The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled against accused people in 34 sexual-assault cases in a row. – “The losing streak for accused people has some criminal-defence lawyers questioning whether the Supreme Court is committed to balance, fairness and the presumption of innocence in sexual-assault cases. Some feminist observers, on the other hand, view the rulings as a course correction for a system still permeated by myths and stereotypes.”
