THE SUPREME COURT OF CANADA EQUATES “FULL ANSWER AND DEFENCE” WITH COMPLAINANT PRIVACY ISSUES. “”Parliament has legislated a formula for wrongful convictions. Indeed, it has all but guaranteed them.” “The screening regime “makes private records presumptively inadmissible when tendered by the defence, but presumptively admissible when tendered by the Crown,” as the latter is not subject to the regime.” “This decision significantly and permanently erodes fair trial rights for people charged with certain offences. And that goes against our bedrock values – or what used to be our bedrock values.”

This is why we are passionate about what we do. Celebrate and enjoy our Canadian freedom today!
