Is this why the Cons have been circling back to MAID lately?

This will be an important case as it deals explicitly with MAID, but has important implications for other medical procedures that faith-based hospitals may take objection to like reproductive and transgender healthcare.

B.C. court to hear Charter challenge over religious exemptions to assisted dying law

A trial set to begin Monday in British Columbia’s Supreme Court questions whether publicly funded faith-based hospitals should be allowed to prevent patients from receiving medical assistance in dying in their facilities.

Contested election appeals are appealed directly to the Supreme Court of Canada (Per Saltum) under section 532 of the Canada Elections Act within 8 days of a decision.

This is a rare bypassing of a normal appellate court and the SCC must hear it without delay #cdnlaw #cdnpoli

@RollingStone @all-news-RollingStone Come say that in Canada. Under current law here, counselling commission of murder has the same penalty as attempted murder, even if someone does not attempt to do as counselled [1], and the same penalty as murder, if the person does as counselled [2]. What a difference between our legal systems.

Wow. 😳😳😳 Field Law represented the first years of my case against the public school board that fired me for being #trans.

I felt they did a good job, so I am inferring that this guy never came close to my case.

Police now need warrant to get a person's IP address, Supreme Court rules | CBC News

The Supreme Court of Canada made a key privacy ruling Friday that means police must now first have a warrant or court order to obtain the numbers making up a person or organization's IP address. 

CBC

The Supreme Court of Canada today released an important decision making it clear that people have a privacy interest in their IP addresses, and the police require a court order to get that address from a provider.
https://www.scc-csc.ca/case-dossier/cb/2024/40269-eng.aspx

At TekSavvy, we already require a court order to connect an IP address with a person. This case was about getting the IP address in the first place, which apparently some companies (Moneris in this case) gave to police without a court order.
