The Defence Of Responsible Communication, Peter A. Downard

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

Defamatory statements of fact published in mass media give rise to a legal problem of particular difficulty. When a defamatory statement of fact is published by mass media, the breadth of the statement’s dissemination is likely to maximize the harm to the person defamed. Yet in recent decades there has been an increasing consciousness among legislators and the judiciary of the importance of freedom of expression in democratic societies.

Criminal Lawyers’ Assn. V. Ontario: A Limited Right To Government Information Under Section 2(B) Of The Charter, Daniel Guttman

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

Before the development of access to information legislation, government information was not generally available to the public.

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

In July 2009 the Supreme Court of Canada released R. v. Grant, R. v. Suberu, R. v. Harrison and R. v. Shepherd. The quartet of judgments made major changes to the law governing the section 9 right against arbitrary detention, the section 10(b) right to counsel and the exclusion of unconstitutionally obtained evidence under section 24(2). This article discusses the importance of the decisions, which clarified the meaning of detention, established that unlawful detentions are necessarily arbitrary and determined that rights to counsel must be given “immediately” upon detention. Most significantly, Grant overturned 22 years of settled section 24(2) jurisprudence …

Grant, Suberu And Harrison: Detention, The Right To Counsel And A New Analysis Under Section 24(2): Some Practical Impacts, Jennifer Woollcombe

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

This article examines the Supreme Court of Canada’s 2009 landmark Charter decisions. The Court’s most recent statement about what constitutes psychological detention is analyzed and some of the difficulties that arise in the application of the test are highlighted. The article also considers the Court’s new pronouncement that the right to counsel arises immediately upon an investigative detention, and raises concerns about how provision of this expanded right to counsel will operate practically. Finally, the article sets out the new test for admissibility of evidence under section 24(2). Some commentary is provided on the factors that seem most likely to …
