The Supreme Court of Canada ruled 6-3 Tuesday that jailing someone with small amounts is constitutional. This means that marijuana policy reform is going to be up to the government, which has batted around various plans for decriminalization for some time (over the vocal objections of the United States Minister of Drug Policy Disinformation John Walters). It all boils down to debates over what amount consists of decriminalized small possession (5-10-15 grams) and how much they're going to jack up the penalties for dealers and growers to "balance" the decriminalization - a far cry from the Senate's original call for legalization.

Canadian Supreme Court Says Press Have No Right To Hide Sources from the freedom-of-the-press dept While we're still fighting for a federal press shield law in the US (various states have them, but it's not universal), the Supreme Court in Canada has ruled that a journalist could be compelled to give up his or her sources if the court thinks it's worthwhile. The court did say that it really does depend on the circumstances, but if a court decides that it's of greater public interest to reveal the source, then the court can require it. Of course, there could be some serious unintended consequences that come with such a ruling including making sources and whistleblowers less willing to come forward, knowing that the journalists they speak to may not be able to protect their anonymity. I don't know how the Canadian political setup works, but couldn't this issue be solved with Canada passing a shield law? Hell, they can talk to their counterparts down south who are working on the same thing... 16 Comments Leave a Comment..

The Supreme Court of Canada last week ruled to exclude scientific evidence from trials that involving driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI). The case considered the accuracy of the breathalyzer readings used to convict two motorists. Robert Albert Gibson had produced a breathalyzer reading that estimated his blood alcohol content (BAC) at .12 and then .10 in a subsequent test. Martin Foster MacDonald blew a .146. At the time the breathalyzer test was administered, each was over the .08 limit. However, because it takes time for the body to absorb the alcohol and cause impairment, the defendants argued that it was possible that they were sober at the time they had been behind the wheel.

CLA Publications A blog for the College of Liberal Arts Canadian Supreme Court Creates New "Responsible Communication" Defense By cla on June 7, 2010 11:22 AM On Dec. 22, 2009, the Canadian Supreme Court vacated libel verdicts against two Canadian newspapers in separate rulings, and created a new defense for members of the public or media who engage in "responsible communication." The Court's rulings granted new trials in the libel suits against the two outlets which had both been found liable in jury trials. In Grant v. Torstar Corp., [2009] 3 S.C.R. 640 (Can.), the Toronto Star had been ordered to pay more than $1 million in punitive damages for writing about controversial plans for a golf course. In Quan v. Cusson, [2009] 3 S.C.R. 712 (Can.), the Ottawa Citizen was ordered to pay $135,000 for a story it published scrutinizing the activities of a former police officer. In Grant, Peter Grant and his company, Grant Forest Products Inc., sued The Toronto Star for a story the newspaper published in 2001 concerning a proposed private golf course development on Grant's lakefront estate. The story reprinted the views of several local residents who were critical of the development's environmental impact and suspicious that Grant was "exercising political influence behind the scenes to secure government approval for the new golf course." The story quoted residents as saying that the project was a "done deal" because of Grant's political connections.

EquityFeminism Skip to content Home About ... Argentina Judge Bans Contraception Canadian Supreme Court Strengthens Divorce Agreements Posted on May 4, 2003 by Brian Carnell In a 7-2 ruling the Canadian Supreme Court reversed several lower court rulings in saying that divorce agreements should be respected unless truly unforeseen circumstances occur that require revisiting them. The case before the Court involved Linda Miglin who succeeded in having lower courts revise a divorce agreement she had reached with her husband in 1994. The Miglins owned a successful lodge in which they had capital of about $250,000. The divorce agreement called for Eric Miglin to pay his wife $60,000/year in child support, employ her for 5 years at $15,000/year as a consultant for the lodge, and swap her interest in the lodge for the family home (which was worth roughly $250,000). Eric Miglin fulfilled his obligations under the divorce agreement, but years later, apparently having difficulty finding a job, Linda Miglin asked a court to grant her $4,400 a month in spousal support even though the divorce agreement between the couple specifically ruled out any future spousal support. Some degree of change in the circumstances of the parties is always foreseeable, as agreements are prospective of in nature. Parties are presumed to be aware that health, job markets, parental responsibilities, housing markets and values of assets are all subject to change.

You can now view the document associated with this citation by clicking on the "View Document as HTML" link below. View Document as HTML: Click here to view the document Abstract: Why are judges increasingly citing the opinions of foreign judges while interpreting their own domestic constitutions? (And to take a step back: are they?) Much ink has been spilled by those who support or oppose such a practice, but too little has been done to examine this apparent trend from a theoretical or empirical perspective. This paper uses data from the Supreme Court of Canada to test whether this trend is real or imagined and to examine the underlying causes of what has been called comparative constitutionalism or comparative legal inquiry. Drawing from institutionalist literature, I argue that new courts—or courts that are newly empowered with the right of judicial review—have a strategic incentive to cite foreign opinions. They need to provide support for their legal reasoning and are confronted with an insufficient body of domestic case law with which to work. Such courts will thus benefit from citing foreign law—at least until their domestic law is built up to a certain level. What happens once this body domestic case law is amassed? Do judges continue to cite foreign law absent this strategic incentive?

Will it be a jolly green Christmas or a stocking full of ashes? Canadian cannabis consumers and advocates will find out on Tuesday, when the Canadian Supreme Court will announce its ruling in a trio of cases that have the potential to nullify the country's laws against marijuana possession. In an announcement sent out on its e-mail list, the court said it would rule on the cases at 9:45am on December 23. The appellants in all three cases, David Malmo-Levine, Victor Caine and Christopher Clay, were all found guilty of marijuana possession offenses. All three appealed their convictions, arguing the Canadian Charter of Rights prohibits the government from creating criminal penalties for marijuana possession. In recent years, Canadian marijuana policy has been in severe flux, with some Canadian courts briefly legalizing marijuana possession because of the government's failure to act to make medical marijuana available to patients. The government of recently retired former Prime Minister Jean Chretien, meanwhile, proceeded with a bill that would have decriminalized marijuana possession, but increased penalties for all but the smallest grow ops. That bill died when Chretien adjourned parliament last month, but as DRCNet reported last week, new Prime Minister Paul Martin has indicated he will reintroduce the bill.
