Jaramillo, 2025 BCCA 77 where police brought a K9 along to arrest a man on an outstanding aggravated assault warrant. The dog never bit or touched the man, but barked. The man — a convicted criminal — said he was scared during the arrest. The judge found the use of the K9 breached the man's s. 7 Charter right to “life, liberty and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice” and reduced his sentence by 11 months to account for this Charter violation. When the Crown appealed the ruling, BC's top court weighed in on the matter. Did the dog display violate s. 7 or was the judge way off-base?

Jir, 2010 BCCA 497 where a police officer, after acting on an anonymous tip, stopped a motorist and immediately arrested him. When police searched the trunk of his car without a warrant, 120,000 ecstasy tablets were discovered. Did the police have enough grounds to arrest the man based on the anonymous tip? Or was more needed? Mike looks at these questions and what factors you can use to assess the reliability of information provided by a tipster.Thanks for listening!

On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast, digital media editor Warren Frey interviews Vancouver Regional Construction Association (VRCA) president Jeannine Martin and British Columbia Construction Association (BCCA) president Chris Atchison about the upcoming B.C. election. The B.C. election race was upended on Aug. 28 when BC United leader dropped out and the party withdrew from the race, leaving David Eby's NDP and John Rustad's BC Conservatives going head to head. Rustad also spoke that same day at the VRCA offices in Vancouver as part of the association's “Constructive Conversations” series, which previous featured both Eby and Falcon. Both association leaders took stock of the changed electoral landscape and focused on what's needed for the B.C. construction industry regardless of who takes government on Oct. 19. Prompt payment legislation was top of min for both Atchison and Martin, as was addressing the ongoing labour shortage both by retaining the workers now in the province and gaining new workers through migration from other provinces and abroad. Martin also discussed the idea of a “minister of construction,” a concept both associations advocate for as a way to streamline regulatory hurdles and focus on an industry that contributes significantly to the province's GDP, and both leaders tackled how all three leaders addressed an ongoing affordability crisis.

On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast™, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with both BC Building Trades executive director Brynn Bourke and British Columbia Construction Association (BCCA) president Chris Atchison about Canada's immigration system and how it intersects with an ongoing labour shortage in the construction industry. Bourke addressed what she said is an “addiction” to temporary foreign workers in the construction industry and advocated for changing the immigration system to both reflect modern labour needs and provide an easier path to permanent residency for skilled tradespeople looking to work in Canada. Atchison said he also supports not only trying to make skilled tradespeople into new Canadian citizens as a priority but also praised British Columbia's provincial nominee program, which prioritizes getting skilled workers into the right roles in the province. He also said BCCA is collaborating with the Canadian Construction Association to pool resources and learning as immigration is in the end the domain of the federal government.

Provide your feedback here. Send me a Text Message.In this episode, Mike shares his response to the criticism levelled against a police officer who, after arresting the driver of a vehicle for PPT, had the vehicle towed to the police station and searched it without a warrant. Did the distance and delay of the search — from the place and time of arrest — render a search of the vehicle outside the permissible scope of the common law doctrine of search incident to arrest? Can the police move a vehicle to properly search it? Or must a search incident to arrest follow immediately on the heels of an arrest? References: Hunter v. Southam, [1984] 2 SCR 145; Fleming v.

In this episode, Mike discusses the case law classic R. v. Poole, 2015 BCCA 464 where police — from inside their cruiser — spoke to a pedestrian standing on the street. After asking some questions and obtaining his name, he was checked on CPIC, which revealed an outstanding warrant for the man's arrest. Police stepped from their car, arrested the man and searched him, finding a loaded, cocked handgun in his pants. At just what point was the man detained? Was it — as the man claimed — when he was accosted by police and asked for his name? Or was it when the warrant was executed and he was actually arrested? Just when does an interaction with police morph into a detention triggering Charter rights under ss. 9 and 10? Thanks for listening! Feedback welcome at legalissuesinpolicing@gmail.com

Episode 284: On the evening of June 24, 1992, after she failed to pick her daughter up from school, 41-year-old Gladys Wakabayshi's estranged husband, Shinji and her daughter, Elisa, discovered her body in the hallway of their home in Shaughnessy, a posh Vancouver neighbourhood. Gladys had been brutally slashed and bled out on the floor. Early on, after uncovering an affair between Derek James, a long-time family friend, and Gladys Wakabayashi, Jean Ann James, 52, Derek's wife, became the number one suspect in the murder.

On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast. Digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with both British Columbia Construction Association (BCCA) president Chris Atchison and BC Roadbuilders and Heavy Construction Association president Kelly Scott about what their membership is doing both right now and in the upcoming recovery phase after wildfire season has ended. Atchison said one of the top priorities is to rebuild residences and other structures burned down in the fire and stressed that members of both the BCCA and the Southern Interior Construction Association have been directly affected by the wildfires and are working to rebuild their own communities. Scott pointed to the BC Roadbuilders cooperation with areas affected by the wildfires in deploying heavy equipment and noted roads will need to be repaired post-wildfires as they were put under extra strain by firefighting vehicles, evacuations and extreme heat.

On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast, digital media editor speaks with Association of Equipment Manufacturers senior vice-president of government and industry relations Kip Eideberg about the state of U.S. immigration and how it affects demand for skilled tradespeople. Eideberg recently wrote an op-ed for The Hill placing the blame for stalled immigration reform on both parties in Congress. He said with 85,000 job openings in the equipment manufacturing industry there are regions of the U.S. that simply don't have enough Americans to fill required positions. He added immigration can revitalize rural areas and that demographic shifts such as an aging population will only exacerbate the problem unless a bipartisan consensus is reached soon.

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:Only a tiny percentage of contracts ever end up in court. This is because contracts are intended to be agreements both parties wish to enter. If, for example, you agree to purchase a home from someone, both you and the seller presumably want to buy and sell the home for an agreed price. Nobody is required to force the home sale to complete as agreed. For understandable political reasons, contracts to rent homes are often no longer the result of both parties wanting to continue with the agreement. As renters outnumber landlords, it's been politically popular to legislate terms of home rental agreements to do such things as limit or prevent rent increases, prevent rental agreements from having an end date or restrict the circumstances in which a landlord can end a rental agreement. The result of this, combined with high inflation and rising interest rates, is that many renters are not paying the market value of their homes. This has resulted in a strong financial incentive for landlords to evict tenants, sell properties, or otherwise get out of agreements to which they do not want to be a party. The BC Government has responded by attempting to impose penalties to force landlords to continue subsidizing rents for existing tenants. One of the few circumstances in which a landlord can end a contract to rent a home is if they, or a close family member, wish to move into it themselves.To prevent this exception from being misused, the BC Government has required landlords who end a contract to rent a home for this reason and who do not move into the home “within a reasonable period of time”, to pay the former tenant 12 months of rent. The substantial amount of money a former tenant might get has resulted in many applications. Between January 1, 2021, and April 30, 2023, there were 2,200 applications. In the case discussed on the show, the landlord couldn't move into their home for four months because he received a stop work order from Saanich for some renovations he was doing before moving in. He was required to provide architectural drawings and asbestos testing before completing the renovations. At an arbitration, an adjudicator awarded the former tenant $22,001.04. This was overturned on appeal to the BC Supreme Court and, eventually, the BC Court of Appeal. Also, on the show, the BCCA upholds a decision by the BC Review Board to keep a woman who was found not criminally responsible because of a mental disorder in a secure hospital. The woman suffered from treatment-resistant Schizoaffective Disorder, Bipolar Type, complicated by substance abuse. She had attempted to abduct a 4-year-old child from a bus believing the child was her own. That was not the first time she had done something similar. She has no insight into her mental disorder and continues to believe that she is the mother of “angel babies” that she needs to get back. Finally, on the show, the BC Court of Appeal found that a 4-year minimum sentence for manslaughter with a firearm was not “grossly disproportionate” to the appropriate sentence in the case being considered and, as a result, not unconstitutional. Because the case did not consider other reasonably hypothetical circumstances where someone could be subject to the mandatory minimum sentence, the provisions may need to be revised in a future case.

In this episode, Mike discusses the BC Court of Appeal decision R. v. Dhillon, 2023 BCCA 38 where a police officer stopped a man for traffic reasons but safety concerns led to a pat-down, an investigative detention for drug trafficking and the discovery of a loaded handgun in a man-purse. The man argued an "imminent threat" to an officer (or to the public) was necessary for a safety search to be lawful and that such a threat did not exist in this case.

Lundy, 2023 BCCA 133 where a police officer arrested a man he believed was trafficking in drugs based on a tip and surveillance observations, all filtered through his experience.

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:The Supreme Court of Canada has created a new, very high hurdle for a judge to dismiss applications in criminal cases summarily without allowing the party making the application to call evidence. The case that gave rise to the issue involved an application for a stay of proceedings brought by two men found guilty of six murder charges. The trial judge refused to hear an application for the stay of proceedings based on several allegations, including sexual activity between police and witnesses, long-term solitary confinement waiting for trial, and the handling of informant information. The Supreme Court of Canada found that the judge should have permitted the accused to make the application and that judges can only refuse to hear such applications when they are “manifestly frivolous.” The term “frivolous” is intended to allow applications that will necessarily fail to be dismissed without hearing them, and that “manifestly” captures the idea that the frivolous nature of the application must be obvious. The Supreme Court of Canada recognized that an undue amount of court time is often spent determining whether an application should be permitted and that this isn't appropriate. When determining if an application is manifestly frivolous, a judge must assume that everything alleged occurred and that the most favourable inference from the alleged circumstances would be drawn.Also, on the show, a claim for wrongful dismissal brought by a manager of a used car dealership is dismissed. The manager, who was paid more than $25,000 per month, submitted two meal receipts for a total of approximately $250, claiming that they were for meals with other employees when they were, in fact, personal expenses. Despite being given two opportunities to come clean about what he had done, the manager did not. The business owner fired him, indicating that she had lost trust in the manager. While an employer can fire a non-unionized employee at any time, for any reason, if they do not have cause to do so, they can be required to provide either notice of the dismissal or payment instead of notice. In this case, the fired manager sued, claiming he was fired without sufficient cause. The judge hearing the case disagreed. They concluded that lying about the meal receipts and then refusing to acknowledge what he had done when confronted about them did constitute grounds for being fired. Finally, on the show, the BC Court of Appeal has ruled that the provisions of the Child, Family and Community Service Act that permit social workers unlimited access to private medical records, without a warrant, when dealing with child protection cases are unconstitutional. The BCCA found that there is a high expectation of privacy in medical records and that allowing social workers to access them to look for things such as treatment a parent might have received for mental health or substance abuse issues was not constitutionally permissible. The BCCA has allowed the government one year to amend the provisions in question to add adequate procedural safeguards to the provisions in question.

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:For many years, the BC government has paid all lawyers working for it on the same basis as contracts negotiated by the union representing Crown Counsel. Recently the government decided to stop doing this. That decision likely increased support for the rest of the lawyers to sign up to join the BC Government Lawyers Association: 75% did so. The BC NDP government, whose core support is organized labour, recently introduced legislation entitled the Public Service Labour Relations Amendment Act, 2023. This act is also referred to as Bill-5. Bill-5 is only half a page long. On the face of it, the bill appears to make some changes to the definition of “employee” in an act called the Public Service Labour Relations Act but it's entirely unclear what impact this change would have. The Explanatory Note, which is included with Bill-5, is equally opaque.Without reading and carefully analyzing the Public Service Labour Relations Act, it's impossible to determine what impact the definition change would have. The explanation provided by Minister Katrine Conroy when she introduced the bill and when she answered questions about it indicated she did not know or was misinformed about the effect of Bill-5. When she spoke about it in the legislature Minister Katrine Conroy indicated that Bill-5 would permit the lawyers to have the BC Government Lawyers Association represent them as they wished. This is a position completely consistent with the position you'd expect from an NDP government. If enacted, Bill-5 would force the lawyers to join a union they don't want to: the Professional Employees Association. That union has also said they don't want a group of people who don't want to join them being forced to do so.The foregoing circumstance resulted in a most unusual spectacle of government lawyers protesting on the lawn of the legislature. Without the benefit of advice from the flock of lawyers on the lawn of the legislature, the BC NDP government seems to have been misled about the effect of the legislation it introduced. Also, on the show, the BCCA finds youth bail conditions improperly imposed on the show. The trial judge in the case ordered the young person to follow all rules of the house they were living at and to accept medical treatment.The BCCA concluded that the judge didn't have details of the house rules, the rules could change, and a failure to comply could result in the young person going to jail. In these circumstances, the condition wasn't permissible.The condition requiring medical treatment was also impermissible because, as with adults, a mature youth had a constitutional right not to be ordered to undergo medical treatment without their consent. Finally, on the show, a class action on behalf of 13 women secretly video recorded in the bathroom at a grocery store is certified against both the manager who did the recording and the corporation that owned the store. Some of the resulting pictures and videos were posted on pornographic websites. Follow this link for links to the cases discussed and a transcript of the show.

On this episode of the Construction Record Podcast, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with Vancouver Regional Construction Association president Donna Grant and board of directors chair Craig Mitchell along with British Columbia Construction Association president Chris Atchison about the issues affecting the construction industry as Vancouver and other municipalities hold elections. All three construction leaders cited affordability as one of the most important issues facing not only the industry but the general population, both in terms of housing supply and addressing an ongoing labor crisis. Permitting and red tape, particularly in Vancouver, is another concern for all three leaders, as was coordination and consultation with the industry when cities set policy. Grant also said construction has gone from a leading creator of greenhouse gases to a big part of the solution and that future municipal governments should take that into account.

In this episode, Mike discusses the BC Court of Appeal decision R. v. Chen, 2022 BCCA 296 where it is considered a “best practice” for a police affiant to educate an authorizing judge about how the law operates in an application to intercept private communications. Although an affidavit may satisfy the requirements that trigger the exception to investigative necessity under s. 186(1.1) of the Criminal Code, it would seem a police affiant is now being asked to school a judge by drawing their attention to the law as it applies. If that's what it takes, I suppose this "advice" should not be ignored or you may run the risk of having your authorization struck down. _______________________Criminal Codes. 186 (1) An authorization under this section may be given if the judge to whom the application is made is satisfied(a) that it would be in the best interests of the administration of justice to do so; and(b) that other investigative procedures have been tried and have failed, other investigative procedures are unlikely to succeed or the urgency of the matter is such that it would be impractical to carry out the investigation of the offence using only other investigative procedures.Exception for criminal organizations and terrorism offences(1.1) Notwithstanding paragraph (1)(b), that paragraph does not apply where the judge is satisfied that the application for an authorization is in relation to(a) an offence under section 467.11, 467.111, 467.12 or 467.13;(b) an offence committed for the benefit of, at the direction of or in association with a criminal organization; or(c) a terrorism offence.Thanks for listening!

On this episode of the Construction Record podcast, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with ConstructConnect chief economist Alex Carrick and senior economist Michael Guckes about American infrastructure legislation and large-scale shifts in economics and technology. Carrick pointed to a real shift away from fossil fuels and said the United States through the Inflation Reduction Act has not only addressed infrastructure needs but also made a major commitment to dealing with climate change. The concurrent shift towards electricity will mean an increased need for lithium and other materials which will be mined by both Canada and the United States. Guckes also pointed at the need for a shift in labour in order to change energy consumption and sustainability, and how the biggest resource challenge will be having to find the large number of workers needed to build infrastructure and mine for resources. He added the challenge of “death by a thousand cuts” if further legislation slows down the process.

On this episode of the Construction Record Podcast, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with British Columbia Construction Association (BCCA) president Chris Atchison about a new federal initiative which puts $21 million in funding towards B.C. employers hiring a minimum of 2,100 first-year apprentices in eligible Red Seal trades over the next two years. Atchison said the BCCA will manage the campaign in British Columbia while working with many construction industry stakeholders to ensure employers are able to hire apprentices and help laborers they already employ move to apprenticeship. Additional incentives will be used to encourage hiring from equity-deserving groups to create welcoming and inclusive workplaces.

In this episode, Mike discusses the BC Court of Appeal decision R. v. Choi, 2021 BCCA 410 where a panel of three judges had to determine whether a search conducted of a drug arrestee while he was booked into police cells amounted to a "strip search" such that the guidelines enunciated by the Supreme Court of Canada in Golden ought to apply. The arrestee's challenge to his sentence appeal (R. v. Choi, 2022 BCCA 90) will also be briefly reviewed.Thanks for listening! Feedback welcome at legalissuesinpolicing@gmail.com
Episode 220: The attention grabbing headline of the the article in The Province newspaper on the morning of July 3, 2013 screamed, “RCMP foil Canada Day bomb plot”, the subheading read, “VICTORIA: Two British Columbians allegedly hatch scheme to blow up legislature.” Since March of that year, RCMP had been engaged in what they called Project Souvenir, a complex and expensive sting operation to gather evidence against two Surrey residents, John Stuart Nuttall, 38, and his common-law wife, Amanda Marie Korody, 29. The RCMP alleged that the pair were Islamist extremist bent on blowing up BC's legislature buildings in Victoria and killing as many innocent Canadians as possible on Canada Day that year. On the morning of July 1, the couple had apparently placed three pressure cooker bombs strategically near concrete planters on the west and east sides of the Provincial legislature buildings. The pair were taken into custody in the hallway of a hotel in Delta, B.C. where they had used a room, wired by cops for video and sound, where they had built their bombs and spoken openly about their plot to kill Canadians. But, as the truth came out, evidence revealed that Nuttall and Korody were not even remotely the devious threats to national security they'd been said to be and that the RCMP had in fact, according to court findings, entrapped the pair. The bombs had been inert, made using intentionally flawed designs and materials handed to the couple by the RCMP themselves during the more than one million dollar operation to bust them.

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:Criminal offences require two things, often described with Latin names: actus reus and mens rea. Actus reus is an intentional physical act. Mens rea is a guilty mind. We don't wish to convict people for physical acts that were not intentional: crashing your car when you have a heart attack or tripping and falling into someone else would not be criminal offences, even if someone else was injured. We also don't want to convict people who don't intend to do something wrong. If, for example, a checkout clerk at a store fails to scan something in your grocery cart properly and you walk out of the store without having paid for the item, it would not constitute theft. Being drunk will not ordinarily provide a defence to a criminal offence. When, however, someone is so impaired by alcohol or drugs that they are no longer capable of voluntary actions, it can amount to automatism. Such a state could result in involuntary movements like those that might result from sleepwalking or someone having a seizure. The Supreme Court of Canada recently considered a case in which a young man consumed alcohol and psilocybin mushrooms which, according to expert evidence that a trial judge accepted, caused hallucinations and ultimately for him to lose voluntary control over his actions. In this state, the man broke into a house and hit a random woman with a broom, injuring her.The Supreme Court of Canada found section 33.1 of the Criminal Code, which permitted convictions even where there was no actus reus, or mens rea, because of voluntary intoxication, to be unconstitutional. The Supreme Court of Canada pointed out that section 33.1 made no distinction between legal and illegal drugs. Someone who had an adverse reaction to an anesthetic and, while incapacitated, involuntarily hit someone could have been convicted of assault because of section 33.1. The court pointed out that it would be constitutionally permissible to create an offence of criminal intoxication, which would be focused on intentionally getting into a state of extreme impairment and then causing harm, rather than attempting to convict people for physical acts they had no control over. Also, on the show, in a companion decision to the one referred to above, the SCC clarified the concept of Horizontal stare decisis. The court system is organized as a hierarchy. There is a Provincial Court, a Superior Court, and a Court of Appeal in each province. The Supreme Court of Canada then hears appeals from all the Courts of Appeal. Lower courts are required to follow the decisions of higher courts in the same province. The Supreme Court of Canada pointed out that judges are also required to follow the decisions of other judges from the same level of court in their province: Horizontal stare decisis.This requirement promotes consistent, predictable decision-making. A judge is only permitted to depart from a legal finding of a previous judge of the same court in the circumstances set out in a BC case dating from 1954: Re Hansard Spruce Mills. Finally, on the show, the BC Court of Appeal, in a 2 – 1 split decision, has found some impugned provisions of the ICBC no-fault scheme to be constitutionally permissible. The provisions prevent injured people from suing in Supreme Court.The issues in the case involved the jurisdiction of the BC Supreme Court judges and the lack of independence of the Civil Resolution Tribunal, which has been permitted to make decisions concerning disputes with ICBC, even though it's not independent of government.

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan: The BC Court of Appeal allowed an appeal by Teal Cedar extending an injection against people attempting to physically prevent the company from logging.The original interim injunction was not renewed by a judge because of concerns with respect to how the RCMP was enforcing the injunction and the fact that the conduct of the people attempting to physically prevent logging also constituted criminal offences that could be prosecuted without an injunction. In allowing the appeal, the BC Court of Appeal held that the fact conduct may also constitute a criminal offence is not a reason to deny an injunction application. The reason for this conclusion was that someone who is applying for an injunction to prevent unlawful conduct does not have control over whether the police or provincial Attorney General will exercise their discretion to arrest and prosecute.The court pointed out that, in the past, the BC Attorney General adopted a policy not to prosecute people who were unlawfully obstructing logging. The availability of an injunction permits a remedy that is not subject to political or other considerations. Injunctions also permit more specific prohibitions, such as exclusion zones, that are not available pursuant to the criminal law except in the form of release conditions for people already charged with a criminal offence.With respect to concern over the conduct of the RCMP when enforcing the injunction, the decision makes clear that the RCMP and the court are separate entities. Issues with respect to RCMP conduct can be raised while defending a charge of criminal contempt and are not a basis for denying an injunction. Finally, the BC Court of Appeal made clear that courts do not determine if the public policy with respect to logging is appropriate and that the protesters who were attempting to impose their will by force were abandoning the democratic process:[76] It is not tenable in a democracy for a group to abandon the democratic process and impose their will on others by force. In a complex, pluralistic society, the democratically-elected government makes laws, and the courts interpret and uphold them. Barring constitutional overreach, the laws and decisions flowing from them are to be respected and enforced.Also, on the show, a dispute between a strata corporation and a property developer concerning payment for a shared electric car is discussed. As a proposed amenity for the building, a shared electric BMW was offered. To facilitate this the property developer leased the car and had the strata corporation take over responsibility for the lease. At the time this was arranged the developer also controlled the strata corporation as the units in the building hadn't been sold yet. Once the new owners of the units took over management of the strata corporation they objected to having to pay for the car. They raised various unsuccessful arguments about not having been told about the arrangement, and not having voted on it. Ultimately, the strata corporation was ordered to pay the developer for the costs associated with terminating the lease for the BMW.

Episode 201: On October 14, 2007, after a gruelling 20-hour journey from Poland, Robert Dziekanski, arrived at the YVR airport's international terminal in Richmond, B.C. Dziekanski, who spoke nor read any English, was unable to read the signs directing him to what he should do next or where he should go. The confused man spent ten hours in the airport wandering around the secure customs area. His mother was waiting for him with a friend only a few meters away in the public waiting area. Had the two been able to connect this story would have had a very different conclusion, but they did not. She left the airport, frustrated, hours before her son's final moments.

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:The mayors of Victoria and Esquimalt, who serve as co-chairs of the Victoria and Esquimalt Police Board, have issued a press release suggesting that to prevent police officers from being assaulted and to reduce criminal activity by mentally ill people, more people should be kept in jail before they have a trial. In Canada, people are presumed to be innocent. There is also a constitutional right not to be denied reasonable bail without just cause. The presumption of innocence would have little meaning if accused people were routinely kept in jail without a trial. Despite the presumption of innocence, a judge can require someone to remain in jail before their trial if it's necessary to ensure they attend court, to preserve public safety, or to ensure confidence in the criminal justice system. When someone is released, either the police or a judge can impose conditions on them. These will often include conditions such as reporting to a bail supervisor, not possessing weapons, or not contacting other people. The conditions are intended to address concerns about attending court or to protect public safety. In Victoria, there has been an increase in property and other crimes associated with an increased population of homeless people who often suffer from mental illness and or drug addiction. There is also a significant unmet need for mental health and addiction treatment services. Proactively providing these services, rather than waiting for people to be arrested, and then seeking to have them kept in jail before their trial, would reduce both crime and confrontations with the police. Putting someone who is mentally ill into jail for a few months will not cure their underlying mental illness or make the community safer in the long run. They will simply be released, without having received treatment, and the cycle will repeat. Also on the show, a BC Court of Appeal decision involving the Snaw-Naw-As First Nation and the Vancouver Island rail line that runs from Nanaimo to Port Alberni is discussed.In 1907 10.78 acres of the Snaw-Naw-As reserve was taken as a right of way for the rail line and $650 was paid as compensation.The rail line has fallen into disrepair and has not been operational for 10 years.The Court of Appeal has given the federal government 18 months to pay for the repair of the rail line and, failing that, the Snaw-Naw-As First Nation will be able to apply for the land to be returned to them because it is no longer being used for the purpose that the right of way permits.

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:The former Clerk of the BC Legislative Assembly, Craig James, was successful in having one of the charges he was facing dismissed. Mr. James was charged on a six-count direct indictment. To be charged by direct indictment, either the Attorney General or Deputy Attorney General need to provide their consent. When this happens, an accused person no longer has the right to elect what kind of trial they wish to have and there can no longer be a preliminary inquiry to determine if there is enough evidence to proceed to trial. Five of the charges on the direct indictment alleged specific wrongdoing, such as obtaining a benefit from the purchase and use of a trailer and wood splitter paid for with public funds. The first charge, on the direct indictment, alleged that between September 10, 2011, and November 21, 2018, he did “commit breach of trust in connection with the duties of his office by using his position to advance his own personal interests of the public good, contrary to section 122 of the Criminal Code.”The trial judge agreed that there were several challenges created by this charge.The charge duplicated the other five charges, without adding anything new. It would have made the trial more complex for the jury and ran afoul of a principle that a charge should generally relate to a single transaction. As a result, the trial judge exercised her authority to quash the count and manage the trial in a way that would be fair to Mr. James. Also on the show, the BC Court of Appeal has concluded that the Motor Vehicle Act provisions that make it an offence to “hold” an electronic device while driving are not restricted to holding a device in your hands. The driver in question had a phone wedged between his leg and the seat.The Court of Appeal concluded that the ordinary grammatical meaning of the word “hold” and found that it can include “physically grasping, carrying, or supporting an electronic device with any part of one's body in a position in which the device may be used.”Finally, on the show, a judge has approved a settlement of a class action against Cathay Pacific Airways Limited as a result of a 2018 data breach that affected 9.4 million passengers worldwide.Approximately 230,000 passengers were covered by the BC class action. As a result of the data breach, names, passport numbers, credit card numbers, and other sensitive data were exposed online. When there is a proposed settlement of a class action a judge needs to determine if the settlement would be in the interest of the class members. The judge is also required to approve legal fees and an honorarium for the person who served as the representative plaintiff and needed to spend time assisting with the case. In the case discussed, a settlement of $1.55 million was approved and the representative plaintiff was provided with an additional $1,500 honorarium.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed.
This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:The City of New Westminster cancelled a meeting room rental that had been booked by The Redeemed Church of God for a "Youth Conference". The City of New Westminster has a booking policy that “restricts or prohibits user groups if they promote racism, hate, violence, censorship, crime or unethical pursuits.”Following an email complaint that the Youth Conference would be an anti-LGBTQ event, the City of New Westminster made some online inquiries and determined that a speaker at the event had a large profile on social media and recent Facebook postings expressing anti-LGBTQ views. As a result, The City of New Westminster cancelled the room rental. The Redeemed Church of God complained about the cancellation and ultimately filed a petition in the BC Supreme Court to, amongst other things, ask that the cancellation be judicially reviewed and reversed. The request for judicial review was denied on the basis that the room rental was a contractual arrangement and not subject to judicial review. The judge hearing the case did, however, find that the City of New Westminster had breached The Redeemed Church of God's right to freedom of expression because the city didn't take sufficient steps to inform itself about the anticipated content of the Youth Conference to permit a balancing of competing rights to be conducted before making the decision to cancel the room booking. Also on the show, a decision from the BC Court of Appeal will allow a defamation claim against a former employee of a Vancouver cryptocurrency company to proceed to trial. The former employee had previously been successful in having the case dismissed pursuant to the Protection of Public Participation Act. This act, which was introduced in 2019, is intended to prevent unmeritorious civil claims from being used to prevent public criticism. The Court of Appeal concluded that the judge who dismissed the claim made a mistake in dismissing the claim because, if defamation is proven, damages are presumed to have occurred.Finally, another Court of Appeal decision dealing with a sentence appeal by a Métis woman who was sentenced to nine months in jail for an assault causing bodily harm conviction is discussed.The appeal was premised in part on an argument that the sentencing judge had failed to give adequate consideration to the woman's background, which is expressly required by section 718.2 (e) of the Criminal Code. That section requires that “all available sanctions, other than imprisonment, that are reasonable in the circumstances and consistent with the harm done to victims or to the community should be considered for all offenders, with particular attention to the circumstances of Aboriginal offenders.”In this case, the Court of Appeal concluded that that judge was not required to do more than they had, given the absence of information concerning the impact the woman's Métis heritage had on her difficult background.

Traditional Japanese food may hold building blocks of COVID-19 treatments Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, July 21, 2021 Natto, a fermented soybean dish often served for breakfast in Japan, originated at the turn of the last millennium but may hold an answer to a modern problem: COVID-19, according to a new study based on cell cultures. Long thought to contribute to longer, healthier lives across Japan -- the country with the longest life expectancy on Earth and home to more than a quarter of the world's population aged 65 years or older -- natto was previously found to be a diet staple in those who were least likely to die from stroke or cardiac disease. Now, researchers have found that extract made from the sticky, strong smelling natto may inhibit the ability of the virus that causes COVID-19 to infect cells. The team published its results on July 13th in Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications. "Traditionally, Japanese people have assumed that natto is beneficial for their health," said paper author Tetsuya Mizutani, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Prevention Research at the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (CEPiR-TUAT). "In recent years, research studies have revealed scientific evidence for this belief. In this study, we investigated natto's antiviral effects on SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, and bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV-1), which causes respiratory disease in cattle." Natto is made by fermenting soybeans with Bacillus subtilis, a bacteria found in plant and in soil. The researchers prepared two natto extracts from the food, one with heat and one without. They applied the extracts to sets of lab-cultured cells from cattle and from humans. One set was infected with SARS-CoV-2, while the other set was infected with BHV-1. When treated with the natto extract made without heat, both SARS-CoV-2 and BHV-1 lost the ability to infect cells. However, neither virus appeared to be affected by the heat-treated natto extract. "We found what appears to be a protease or proteases -- proteins that metabolize other proteins -- in the natto extract directly digests the receptor binding domain on the spike protein in SARS-CoV-2," Mizutani said, noting that the protease appears to break down in heat, losing the ability to digest proteins and letting the virus remain infectious. The spike protein sits on the virus's surface and binds to a receptor on host cells. With an inactive spike protein, SARS-CoV-2 cannot infect healthy cells. The researchers found a similar effect on BHV-1. "We also confirmed that the natto extract has the same digestive effects on the receptor binding domain proteins of the SARS-CoV-2 mutated strains, such as the Alpha variant," Mizutani said. While the results are promising, Mizutani said, he also cautioned that further studies are needed to identify the exact molecular mechanisms at work. He also stressed that the research does not provide any evidence of reduced viral infection simply by eating natto. Once the components are identified and their functions verified, the researchers plan to advance their work to clinical studies in animal models. "Although there are vaccines for COVID-19, we do not know how they effective they may be against every variant," Mizutani said. "It will also take time to vaccinate everyone, and there are still reports of breakthrough cases, so we need to make treatments for those who develop COVID-19. This work may offer a big hint for such pharmaceutical design." Excess caffeine intake may be linked to an increased risk of osteoporosis University of South Australia, July 19, 2021 University of South Australia researchers have a bone to pick when it comes to drinking too much coffee as new research finds that excess caffeine may be linked to an increased risk of osteoporosis. Investigating the effects of coffee on how the kidneys regulate calcium in the body, researchers found that high doses of caffeine (800 mg) consumed over a six-hour period almost doubled the amount of calcium lost in the urine. This is the first study to report the impact of high-dose, short-term caffeine intake on renal clearance of calcium, sodium, and creatinine in healthy adults. UniSA's Dr. Hayley Schultz says with the emergence of an increasing "coffee culture" it's important for people to understand the impacts of what they are putting into their bodies. "Caffeine is one of the most widely used recreational drugs in the world, with 80 percent of adults consuming at least one caffeinated beverage per day," Dr. Schultz says. "It's a common stimulant, consumed by professionals, parents, shift workers, and teenagers alike to start their day and stay alert—even the military use caffeine to help combat sleepiness. "But while coffee has its perks, it's also important to acknowledge its fallbacks—one of them being how our kidneys handle calcium. "Our research found that people who consume 800 mg of caffeine over a typical working day will have a 77 percent increase in calcium in their urine, creating a potential deficiency that could impact their bones." Osteoporosis is a chronic, painful, and debilitating disease which makes your bones less dense and more susceptible to fracture. More common in women, it occurs when bones lose calcium and other minerals faster than the body can replace them. In Australia, an estimated 924,000 people have osteoporosis. The double-blind clinical study saw participants chew caffeine or a placebo gum for five minutes at two-hour intervals over a six-hour treatment period (total caffeine 800 mg). While the primary research objective was to examine the impact of caffeine consumption on wakefulness and other factors, this sub-study aimed to evaluate the impact of caffeine consumption on the renal clearance of calcium. Co-researcher, UniSA's Dr. Stephanie Reuter Lange says understanding the long-term impacts of high caffeine consumption is especially important for higher risk groups. "The average daily intake of caffeine is about 200 mg—roughly two cups of coffee. While drinking eight cups of coffee may seem a lot (800 mg of caffeine), there are groups who would fall into this category," Dr. Reuter Lange says. "People at risk could include teenagers who binge-consume energy drinks are at are at risk because their bones are still developing; professional athletes who use caffeine for performance enhancement; as well as post-menopausal women who often have low blood calcium levels due to hormonal changes and lack sufficient daily dietary calcium intake. "Increasingly, we are also seeing high levels of caffeine among shiftworkers who need to stay alert over the night-time hours, as well as those in the military who use caffeine to combat sleep deprivation in operational settings. "Caffeine in moderation certainly has its pros. But understanding how excess consumption could increase the risks of a highly preventable disease such as osteoporosis, is important." From here, researchers will explore and predict the impact of different levels of caffeine intake on short- and long-term bone health, with the aim to inform dietary guidelines in Australia. From heart to diabetes, these are the health benefits of strawberries University of Nevada, July 16, 2021 Dietary berries, such as strawberries, are rich in bioactive compounds and have been shown to lower cardiometabolic risk. We examined the effects of two dietary achievable doses of strawberries on glycemic control and lipid profiles in obese adults with elevated serum LDL cholesterol (LDL-C). Methods: In this 14-week randomized controlled crossover study, participants were assigned to one of the three arms for four weeks separated by a one-week washout period: control powder, one serving (low dose: 13 g strawberry powder/day), or two-and-a -half servings (high dose: 32 g strawberry powder/day). Participants were instructed to follow their usual diet and lifestyle while refraining from consuming other berries and related products throughout the study interval. Blood samples, anthropometric measures, blood pressure, and dietary and physical activity data were collected at baseline and at the end of each four-week phase of intervention. Results: In total, 33 participants completed all three phases of the trial [(mean ± SD): Age: 53 ± 13 y; BMI: 33 ± 3.0 kg/m2). Findings revealed significant reductions in fasting insulin (p = 0.0002) and homeostatic model of assessment of insulin resistance (p = 0.0003) following the high dose strawberry phase when compared to the low dose strawberry and control phases. Glucose and conventional lipid profiles did not differ among the phases. Nuclear magnetic resonance-determined particle concentrations of total VLDL and chylomicrons, small VLDL, and total and small LDL were significantly decreased after the high dose strawberry phase, compared to control and low dose phases (all p < 0.0001). Among the biomarkers of inflammation and adipokines measured, only serum PAI-1 showed a decrease after the high dose strawberry phase (p = 0.002). Conclusions: These data suggest that consuming strawberries at two-and-a-half servings for four weeks significantly improves insulin resistance, lipid particle profiles, and serum PAI-1 in obese adults with elevated serum LDL-C. Omega 3 has beneficial effects on reducing relapse rate, inflammatory markers in MS patients Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University (Saudi Arabia), July 14, 2021 According to news originating from Dammam, Saudi Arabia, research stated, “Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, resulting in the degradation of the myelin sheath. Diet especially fish oils and omega-3 has been found to play an important role in MS.” Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University, “This work aimed to review the literature systematically for evidence on the effect of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA, DPA and DHA) on MS progression in adults. The literature search was conducted in PubMed, Oxford, Cochrane, Embase, International pharmaceutical abstract, PsychINFO, and clinical trials government. The inclusions were studies performed on humans both male and female, aged 18 years at minimum, diagnosed with MS according to McDonald 2010 criteria. Otherwise, all studies were excluded. A total of 5554 studies were screened and seven were thoroughly focused on as they typically met the inclusion criteria. These studies showed the beneficial roles of fish oil supplementation and omega-3 fatty acids in improving the quality of life of MS patients. These roles were attributed to their beneficial effects on inflammatory markers, glutathione reductase, reducing the relapsing rate, and achieving balanced omega-6 to omega-3 ratios.” According to the news editors, the research concluded: “Omega-3 and fish oils supplementations have beneficial effects on reducing the relapsing rate, inflammatory markers, and improving the quality of life for MS patients.” This research has been peer-reviewed. Championing chrononutrition with protein, the morning elixir for muscle growth Waseda University (Japan), July 20, 2021 Proteins constitute an essential dietary component that help in the growth and repair of the body. Composed of long chains of amino acids, proteins promote the growth of skeletal muscles, the group of muscles that help us move. Humans have been aware of the benefits of proteins for long. However, recent studies have shown that having the right amount of protein at the right time of the day is essential for proper growth. This is called 'Chrononutrition,' in which when you eat is as important as what and how you eat. The reason behind this is the body's internal biological clock, called the 'circadian rhythm'. This rhythm is followed by all cells and controls life functions like metabolism and growth. Interestingly, protein digestion and absorption have been found to fluctuate across day and night according to this clock. Moreover, earlier studies have reported that intake of protein at breakfast and lunch promotes skeletal muscle growth in adults. However, details on the effect of the time of protein intake on muscle growth and function have remained elusive till date. Fortunately, researchers from Waseda University, led by Professor Shigenobu Shibata, recently endeavored to understand the effect of the distribution of protein intake through the day on muscles. They fed laboratory mice two meals per day containing either high (11.5% by proportion) or low (8.5% by proportion) protein concentrations. The researchers noted that protein intake at breakfast induced an increase in muscle growth, determined by assessing induced hypertrophy of the plantaris muscle in the leg, when compared with the effects of protein intake at dinner. Specifically, the ratio of muscle hypertrophy determined against the growth of the control muscle was 17% higher in mice fed 8.5% protein at breakfast, than that in mice fed 11.5% protein at dinner, despite the former group consuming a low proportion of protein overall. They also found that intake of a type of protein called the BCCA, short for branched-chain amino acids, early in the day increased the size of skeletal muscles specifically. To confirm the association of these effects with the workings of the circadian rhythm, the researchers next engineered whole-body mutant ClockΔ19 or muscle-specific Bmal1 knockout mice lacking the genes that control the biological clock. They repeated diet distribution experiments on these mice but did not observe similar muscle change, which confirmed the involvement of the circadian rhythm in muscle growth in the context of protein intake. Excited about the findings of their study published in a recent issue of the Cell Reports, Prof. Shibata emphasizes, "Protein-rich diet at an early phase of the daily active period, that is at breakfast, is important to maintain skeletal muscle health and enhance muscle volume and grip strength." To check if their findings were applicable to humans, the team recruited women in their study and tested if their muscle function, determined by measuring skeletal muscle index (SMI) and grip strength, varied with the timing of the protein-rich diet consumed. Sixty women aged 65 years and above who took protein at breakfast rather than at dinner showed better muscle functions, suggesting the possibility of the findings to be true across species. Additionally, the researchers also found a strong association between SMI and the proportion of protein intake at breakfast relative to total protein intake through the day. Prof. Shibata is hopeful that the findings of their study will lead to a widespread modification in the current diet regime of most people across the Western and Asian countries, who traditionally consume low amounts of protein at breakfast. He therefore stresses, "For humans, in general, the protein intake at breakfast averages about 15 grams, which is less than what we consume at dinner, which is roughly 28 grams. Our findings strongly support changing this norm and consuming more protein at breakfast or morning snacking time." Ginseng compound exerts neuroprotective effects Gachon University (South Korea), July 16, 2021 According to news reporting from Gyeonggi Do, South Korea, research stated, “Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of b-amyloid plaques and hyperphosphorylated tau proteins in the brain.” The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Gachon University: “Cell signaling pathways such as PI3K/Akt are known to play an essential role in regulating cell survival, motility, transcription, metabolism, and progression of the cell cycle. Recent studies demonstrated that the disruption of these signaling pathways in neurodegenerative disorders leads to oxidative stress and cell death. Targeting these altered signaling pathways could be considered as the therapeutic approach for neurodegenerative disorders. Ginsenoside Rh1 is known to provide beneficial effects in various diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and inflammation. In this study, human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were treated with the b-amyloid oligomers alone or in combination with ginsenoside Rh1. We observed that ginsenoside Rh1 was able to attenuate b-amyloid induced oxidative stress and cell death by activating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.” According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “Based on these findings, we suggest that ginsenoside Rh1 might be an efficacious therapeutic agent for AD.” Many kinds of happiness promote better health, study finds Weill Cornell University of Medicine, July 21, 2021 A new study links the capacity to feel a variety of upbeat emotions to better health. The research suggests people who experience a range of positive emotions in their daily lives – from enthusiasm to cheerfulness and calm – have lower levels of inflammation, compared to those who experience a narrower range of emotions. Lower levels of inflammation are linked to a lower risk of premature death and chronic diseases like diabetes. The researchers drew on analytic approaches used to measure the biodiversity of ecosystems. Their study was published June 22 in the journal Emotion. "There are many kinds of happiness, and experiencing a diversity of emotional states might reduce a person's vulnerability to psychopathology by preventing any one emotion from dominating their emotional life," said lead author Anthony Ong, professor of human development in the College of Human Ecology and professor of geriatrics and palliative medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine. Little is known about the biological processes through which emotional experiences influence health outcomes. This study sought to fill a bit of that gap. Specifically, the study sheds light on one potential biological pathway – systemic inflammation – through which diversity in everyday positive emotional experiences might "get under the skin" to influence long-term health. Ong and his colleagues analyzed the connection between "emodiversity" – the breadth and abundance of different emotions people experience – and markers of inflammation in the body. A person with low emodiversity feels about the same through most of the day, with emotions concentrated in just a few categories. In contrast, a person with high emodiversity feels a range of emotions throughout the day, distributed evenly across the spectrum of feelings. The researchers analyzed data from 175 people ages 40 to 65 who reported on their negative and positive emotions for 30 days. Each evening, they rated the extent to which they had experienced 16 positive emotions that day, from interested and determined to happy, excited, amused, inspired, alert, active and strong. They were also asked to rate their experience of 16 negative emotions, including scared, afraid, upset, distressed, jittery, nervous and ashamed. Their blood was drawn six months later and was tested for three inflammation markers that circulate in the blood. Their range of negative emotions – regardless of whether it was narrow or wide – had no effect on inflammation. But people in the study who reported a wide range of positive emotions had lower levels of inflammation than those who said they felt a narrower range. "Emotions serve functional roles for individuals, helping them prioritize and regulate behavior in ways that optimize adjustment to situational demands," Ong said. "Our findings suggest that depletion or overabundance of positive emotions, in particular, has consequences for the functioning and health of one's emotional ecosystem." Growing evidence from other research has linked emotional processes with systemic inflammation, which has been shown to contribute to poor health, such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, rheumatoid disease and osteoporosis, and leads to a number of processes that play a major role in premature death. How can these findings help one achieve better health? Label your good feelings as you experience them, Ong said. "The simple daily practice of labeling and categorizing good feelings in specific terms may help us experience more differentiated emotions in different contexts," Ong said.
This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:Budway, a Vancouver marijuana store, has been using a logo similar to the Subway sandwich logo. Budway also had a mascot in the form of a submarine sandwich filled with cannabis leaves, with bloodshot, half-open eyes. Subway sued Budway, alleging various breaches of the Trademarks Act. One of the issues in the case was whether what Budway was doing amounted to “passing off” This can occur if consumers could be misled into believing that something is being manufactured, sold, or performed by a different company. Last year, Toys “R” US sued another Vancouver marijuana store called Herbs “R” US. In that case, while Toys “R” US was successful in proving that their goodwill was being depreciated by Herbs “R” US, they failed to prove that Herbs “R” US was engaged in passing off because even a casual consumer would not think the same company that sold toys was also selling marijuana. Subway was successful in their passing off claim because the Subway trademark was related to the sale of things including cookies, muffins, and pastries.Budway was selling marijuana edibles, including cookies and brownies, and has posted an online video promoting Munchie Monday with 10% off all edibles. Subway was awarded $15,000 in damages plus $25,000 in legal costs. Also on the show, the Highlands District Community Association was unsuccessful in the BC Court of Appeal challenging the decision of the Mines Inspector to approve a mine in the District of Highlands. Unlike other kinds of development, municipalities don't decide if a mine can be built. That decision is made by the Mines Inspector: a provincial government official. The community association argued that the Mines Inspector was obliged to consider the climate change implications of permitting the mine. On a judicial review of an administrative decision, judges are not permitted to just make whatever decision they think would be best. Judges can only overturn an administrative decision, such as the one to permit the mine, if they conclude the decision was unreasonable, or if there was no authority to make the decision. In this case, the Court of Appeal agreed that climate change was important and found that the Mines Inspector would be permitted to consider it, however, all three judges agreed that the Mines Inspector's decision was not made unreasonable by his decision not to seek out evidence about how the proposed mine would impact climate change. Finally, on the show, a Supreme Court of Canada case involving how privacy interest should be weighed against the principle that courts are to be open and transparent. The case involved an application by the estate of a wealthy Toronto couple, who was murdered in 2017, to keep the estate file private. The Supreme Court of Canada concluded that the file should not be sealed because ensuring court decisions were open to the public was important and an essential feature of a democracy. It's important that the public be able to know what's happening when courts make decisions. The Supreme Court of Canada did find that, in limited circumstances, court proceedings could be sealed when allowing access would undermine the dignity of individuals involved by permitting access to private information that was so sensitive that it could be said to strike at the biographical core of the individual.

In the early morning hours of November 17, 2001, officers from the Vancouver Police were dispatched to the Second Beach area of Stanley Park. Several callers to 911 indicated that there had been some kind of altercation and a group of man had badly beaten another man. Two VPD constables arrived at the Second Beach parking lot within minutes of being called to find a distraught man frantically providing CPR to a bloodied man on the ground. The man on the ground was naked except for socks and shoes. Police assessed the man’s condition and immediately called for an ambulance. The paramedics from the BC Ambulance Service arrived quickly, but determined that it was too late. Aaron Zane Donald Webster, 42-year-old and a member of Vancouver’s gay community, was dead. He had been brutally beaten with a blunt instrument and his killers had skittered off into the night leaving Aaron to die. Aaron’s death would be come to be recognized as Canada’s most well-known and notorious cases of ‘gay bashing’. Guest Host: Mathew Stockton (Steve the dog's dad) Sources: R. v.

Good Formation, Faheem and Nelly J chat with special guest Coach Lee Anna Osei @coach_leeannaosei • Head Coach at St. Francis Xavier University (StFX) • Founder and Director of The Black Canadian Coaches Association (BCCA) @bcc_association • Founder of Canletes Sports This episode Coach Lee shares with us what experiences motivated her to create 2 nonprofit organizations (NPO) that focus on uniting the BIPOC community and women in sports all across Canada. We then get zoned in on the Houston Rockets' decision to retire James Harden's jersey, the NBA head coach hiring process and discuss why there is a lack of Black Head coaches in professional sports in North America. Then, for the culture, we highlight Coach Lee Anna's impressive resume and the 2 organizations that she has founded, The BCCA and Canletes Sports. We do a deep dive on how the organizations are connecting people of colour across the country, uplifting youth and women through sports & in the community and how we all can get involved and support these great initiatives.. We conclude episode 29 with THAT's ABSURD, where we discuss the comments made by Zlatan Ibrahimović (AC Milan) about Lebron James while he was doing a TV interview.
This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:Several churches in the Fraser Valley have been refusing to comply with COVID-19 health rules and have been conducting in-person services. The churches have started a legal challenge to the public health orders on the basis that they believe them to be unconstitutional given constitutional protection for “freedom of conscience and religion”.This, and related constitutional protections, are subject to “such reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society”.Ultimately, the courts will need to decide if the prohibition on in-person religious services meets this test. Prior to the matter being decided, the province of British Columbia, and Dr. Henry, asked the Chief Justice of the BC Supreme Court for an interim injunction to order the churches to stop conducting the in-person services, until the case had been decided.There is a three-part test to determine if an interim injunction should be issued:1. Has the applicant demonstrated there is a fair question to be tried? 2. Will the applicant suffer irreparable harm if an injunction is not granted? 3. Does the balance of convenience favour the granting of an injunction?Chief Justice Hinkson determined that while the first two parts of the test for an interim injunction had been met, including a finding that there could be irreparable harm including deaths, the third part of the test had not been met. His reasons for reaching this conclusion included the fact that the Public Health Act already permits large fines, and jail sentences, to be imposed where orders are not followed, and the fact that British Columbia failed to prosecute people who were alleged to have been intentionally violating a previous injunction to stop blockading the port in Vancouver. Chief Justice Hinkson quoted from a decision of Justice Tammen who found that the people intentionally breaching the injunction to stop blockading the port were engaged in a direct attack on the rule of law. Also discussed on the show is a recent BC Court of Appeal decision dealing with the definition of a motor-assisted cycle. The BC Motor Vehicle Act, and associated regulations, exempt some motor-assisted cycles from the need for insurance and the need for a licence to operate them. Unfortunately, the rules are dated, and ambiguous. In the case discussed, the 3 Court of Appeal judges split 2 – 1 on whether a new trial was required. In order to encourage people to use an alternative, electric, transportation options it would be desirable for the provincial government to update and clarify the regulations to clearly include devices that did not exist when the current regulations were created. Without clarity, people using newer electric transportation devices may be subject to very large fines where were intended to discourage people from operating large traditional vehicles without insurance.

Defender Radio: The Podcast for Wildlife Advocates and Animal Lovers
Nearly five years ago to the day, then-Conservation Officer Bryce Casavant famously refused an order to unnecessarily kill two healthy bear cubs; he was suspended, effectively fired and eventually left government service entirely. But just a few weeks ago, justices in BC’s appellant court ruled that the province did not play by their own rules, meaning Bryce has been, in a word, vindicated. Today, Bryce shared the story of how doing the right thing left him in a legal battle with the province that lasted over four and a half years. Additionally, Bryce recently successfully defended his doctoral thesis – which happens to look, in part, at the history of the Conservation Officer Service and how they went from game wardens to an armed law enforcement agency. In this in-depth conversation, Bryce and I discuss the background and decision of his court case, the need to have hard conversations about less visible law enforcement agencies, legislative hide and seek, mission creep, and how it feels to be vindicated.

Episode 116 - The last time Heather Thomas's dad Pat saw his ten year old daughter alive was on the afternoon of October 1, 2000 when she went outside to play around their Cloverdale, BC, townhouse complex. After one the largest searches in RCMP history to that point, it was a hitchhiker who found Heather's body floating facedown in Alouette Lake in Golden Ears Park. Heather had been murdered and the community was shocked when they found out it had been one of their own who had done the terrible deed. Sources and Further Reading: R. v.

We're looking at the appeal of the British Columbia Court of Appeal's decision in Nevsun Resources v. Araya, that Eritrean nationals can bring a case in a Canadian court against a Canadian mining company they claim engaged in human rights abuses. When the world of business and technology is pulling ever closer together - and shareholders and customers expect industry to constantly strive for bigger, cheaper, faster - what role do the concepts of national boundaries and state sovereignty play? And while states may benefit from state immunity, what about corporations wanting to do business in and with those states? Just how far can the shields states hide behind also protect business interests, particularly when human rights are on the line? These are just some of the questions we'll be exploring on this episode of The General Appeal Podcast.

Episode 070 - In the quiet city of Armstrong B.C. on Halloween night 2011, Taylor Van Diest, 18, left her house dressed as a zombie. She was excited to meet up with her pals to go trick or treating one last time before they were 'too old'. Taylor stopped responding to text messages just over ten minutes into her short walk to her friend's home. She was found badly beaten and clinging to life two hours later by friends and family frantically searching. The fun loving girl with no known enemies died in hospital the next morning. It would take good old fashioned police work coupled with forensic DNA evidence to bring her killer to justice.

If you'll recall on last week's podcast, we visited with a younger rancher from British Columbia (Episode 012) after my trip to the BC Cattlemen's Association Annual General Meeting in Penticton. This week we'll continue with conversations from that meeting. On Episode 013 of the Agriculture Proud podcast, I sit down with Kevin Boon. He's General Manager of BCCA, based in Kamloops, BC. As I've had an opportunity to visit a few of these Canadian Association meetings during the past month, I find there is more in common with U.S. ranching than there are differences. Sure, there are differences in a few government policies and organizational structures, but ranchers are still dealing with many of the same issues. So, it's been a great chance to hear from some of these cattlemen and women and get their perspectives on the issues. It was also great to hear how the BCCA is working to ensure younger producers have their voices heard through better representation in the organization's leadership roles. It was great to meet Kevin and catch up with him. I hope you'll take an opportunity to follow the British Columbia Cattlemen's Association online. Find them on Facebook and Twitter. Read more about my trip to BC in an earlier post. I hope you enjoy this episode of the Agriculture Proud podcast. Check out all my episodes at BeefRunner.com/podcast. Like what you see here?
