The Supreme Court Doesn’t Care That the Gay Wedding Website Case Is Based on Fiction

It still feels unnerving to some, even those caught in the crossfire, to see injuries invented wholesale and lies accepted by the highest court in the land.

@uspolitics In #canada the Supreme Court can consider only one form of hypothetical; it’s called a reference, and only the federal government can refer a question on that basis. And I gather the court prefers fact based disputes, not hypotheticals.
@SonofaGeorge @uspolitics the problem with hypotheticals is that they tend to be narrow and succinct where as the real world is messy.
