Activists from Jews Say NO to Genocide are working to challenge the coordinated narratives around the antisemitic violence at Bondi Beach in Australia - narratives that help pave the way for dangerous legislation like Canada's own Bill C9. Louise, also of Independent Jewish Voices, goes over Carney's pending Act to Amend the Criminal Code, and its possible ramifications. From the new intimidation offence, to the vague wording around restricted spaces and symbols, the case is made that this is another tool for the powerful to suppress opponents at will.Toronto based activist, Molly Kraft, also of SURJ Toronto, talks about how the prioritizing the feelings of some at the expense of the rights of others is all just part of the larger scheme to suppress dissent and benefit, not Jewish people, but white, Christian nationalists, Imperialism and ultimately, Capital.Gur Tsabar, of the Movement Media Hub and spokesperson for the group, says we need to be asking the hard questions in the immediate wake of events like Bondi Beach and October 7th. He insists its in those moments the machinery working against us goes into overdrive to lay the "moral foundation" for the horrors that come next.Hosted by: Jessa McLeanCall to Action: Say NO to Bill C-9 (Action Network Petition)Related Episodes: Jews Say NO to Genocide (Dec 2024) The organization's first appearance on Blueprints to talk about the Jewish identity crisis purposely being crafted by the Israeli lobby.

Carignan, 2025 SCC 43 where a police officer arrested a man under s. 495 of the Criminal Code. At trial, in the Court of Quebec, the man wanted a voir dire held to determine the lawfulness of his arrest because — he claimed — the police did not comply with s. 495(2) and he sought the exclusion of an incriminating statement he made to police under s. 24(2) of the Charter. But the judge refused to hold a voir dire, concluding s. 495(3) rendered an arrest that did not comply with s. 495(2) lawful in a criminal proceeding, including one in which the arrestee was on trial. The man was convicted of sexual assault and he was sentenced to 15 months' imprisonment and placed on probation for a period of two years. He appealed to Quebec's highest court, which ruled the trial judge erred. In its view, s. 495(3) did not prevent an accused from challenging the legality of their arrest. By refusing to hold a voir dire, the judge deprived the man of the opportunity to allege and establish non-compliance with s. 495(2). The man's appeal was allowed and a new trial was ordered. The Crown then appealed the Quebec Court of Appeal's decision to Canada's top court, where all nine judges heard the matter and rendered an unanimous decision. Listen to learn what every law enforcement officer should know about the effect non compliance with s. 495(2) has on the lawfulness of an arrest made under s. 495(1) and its interplay with s. 495(3). Criminal Code power of arrest:495 (1) A peace officer may arrest without warrant(a) a person who has committed an indictable offence or who, on reasonable grounds, he believes has committed or is about to commit an indictable offence(b) a person whom he finds committing a criminal offence; or(c) a person in respect of whom he has reasonable grounds to believe that a warrant of arrest or committal, in any form set out in Part XXVIII in relation thereto, is in force within the territorial jurisdiction in which the person is found.Limitation(2) A peace officer shall not arrest a person without warrant for(a) an indictable offence mentioned in section 553,(b) an offence for which the person may be prosecuted by indictment or for which he is punishable on summary conviction, or(c) an offence punishable on summary conviction,in any case where(d) he believes on reasonable grounds that the public interest, having regard to all the circumstances including the need to(i) establish the identity of the person,(ii) secure or preserve evidence of or relating to the offence, or(iii) prevent the continuation or repetition of the offence or the commission of another offence, may be satisfied without so arresting the person, and(e) he has no reasonable grounds to believe that, if he does not so arrest the person, the person will fail to attend court in order to be dealt with according to law.Consequences of arrest without warrant(3) Notwithstanding subsection (2), a peace officer acting under subsection (1) is deemed to be acting lawfully and in the execution of his duty for the purposes of(a) any proceedings under this or any other Act of Parliament; and(b) any other proceedings, unless in any such proceedings it is alleged and established by the person making the allegation that the peace officer did not comply with the requirements of subsection (2).Other provisions mentioned in the podcast: ss. 493, 49Thanks for listening!

The appellant was acquitted at trial of transmitting sexually explicit material to a person under the age of 16 for the purpose of facilitating the commission of either a sexual assault or the indecent act of exposing his genital organs to a person under 16 years of age for a sexual purpose. The trial judge accepted that the appellant sent sexually explicit material to a minor, but he was left with a reasonable doubt on two elements : the identity of the appellant in a sexually explicit video and the specific intent to transmit the material for the purpose of facilitating the commission of an enumerated offence. The trial judge concluded that the transmission of the material could have been “flirtation” and was left with a doubt as to whether the appellant personally intended to commit one of the enumerated offences.The Court of Appeal held that the trial judge erred in acquitting the appellant. The Crown was not required to prove the identity of the appellant in the transmitted video, nor was it required to prove that the appellant personally intended to commit one of the enumerated offences. The conduct referred to by the trial judge as “flirtation” is a tool used to facilitate the commission of sexual offences against children. In its view, but for the trial judge's errors, the appellant would have been convicted. The Court of Appeal set aside the acquittal and entered a conviction. Argued Date 2025-11-14 Keywords Criminal Law —Transmit sexually explicit material to a person under age of 16 for purpose of facilitating commission of sexual assault or indecent act — Elements of offence — Powers of Court of Appeal — Whether Court of Appeal exceeded jurisdiction by allowing appeal and quashing acquittal under Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1985, c.

Friday Juma KhutbaDecember 5th, 2025- Canada's Liberal government may remove the “religious exemption” from hate speech laws in Section 319(3)(b) of the Criminal Code.- Bill C-9 aims to amend the Criminal Code regarding hate propaganda, hate crime, and access to religious/cultural places.- The current exemption protects good-faith expressions or arguments based on religious beliefs or texts from prosecution.- NCCM warns this change could criminalize sermons or discussions from the Qur'an, Bible, Torah, Bhagavad Gita, or Guru Granth Sahib.- Canada has historically protected good-faith theological discourse; removing this risks censorship of faith and scholarship.- Without the exemption, reciting religious texts, teaching, or quoting scriptures could lead to investigation or criminal charges.- Muslims support hate speech laws against incitement to violence but oppose removing the good-faith religious exemption.- Advocates are encouraged to join NCCM's letter-writing campaign to defend religious freedom and promote justice.- Religious freedom defenders are united: Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, Canadian Civil Liberties Association, Canadian Bar Association, CMPAC, United Church of Canada, and ~50 other organizations.- United public opposition may prevent the removal of the exemption.- Example of interfaith unity: Pope Leo's trip to Turkey and Lebanon focused on peace and dialogue with Muslims and Christians.- Shi‘a representation in Lebanon: Shaykh ‘Ali al-Khaṭib welcomed the Pope on behalf of the Supreme Islamic Shi‘a Council.- Shaykh ‘Ali emphasized Islamic principles of human fraternity and equality from the Prophet Muḥammad and Imam ‘Ali.- He highlighted that true religion promotes peace, honour, and dignity, and conflicts in religion misrepresent faith.Donate towards our programs today: https://jaffari.org/donate/Jaffari Community Centre (JCC Live)

Mr. Bilodeau was convicted by a jury as a party to manslaughter per s. 21(2) of the Criminal Code of Canada, after he directed his eldest son to bring a firearm to the scene. The eldest son followed his father's directions, and upon his arrival, fatally shot the two victims. Mr. Bilodeau had chased the two victims in his truck, after he saw the two men, who were also in a truck, stop in front of his home. Mr. Bilodeau believed them to be thieves. At the end of the chase, the two trucks came to a stop near a T-intersection, where one of the two victims broke one of Mr. Bilodeau's truck windows and began punching Mr. Bilodeau. The shooter, Mr. Bilodeau's eldest son, arrived on scene and shot both victims, fatally. The eldest son was convicted of second-degree murder and manslaughter. Mr. Bilodeau appealed his conviction, citing errors in the jury's instructions on the issue of whether or not Mr. Bilodeau formed a common intention with his son to commit an unlawful act. An unlawful act, which, in order to convict, must be one that the accused knew, or ought to have known was a probable consequence of the common intention. In other words, the path to conviction for Mr. Bilodeau rested on whether or not he knew, or ought to have known, that either of the victims could have been killed by instructing his son to bring a firearm to the scene of the altercation. A majority of the Alberta Court of Appeal found that while there were errors in the jury instructions, many of them actually benefited Mr. Bilodeau. A dissenting judge would have allowed the appeal, and would have ordered a new trial.

The rights of LGBT people are on the chopping block across the world, with new countries criminalizing same-sex practices and banning representation of queer relationships in 2025. However, the landscape for LGBT rights has also shifted tremendously towards progress over the past decades. What gives? This week, we explore the texture of progress for LGBT rights. As Indonesia prepares for a new Criminal Code that will outlaw same-sex relations, prominent local advocate Dédé Oetomo charts the trajectory of LGBT rights from cultural openness to increasing repression. Indonesia's path illustrates a pattern of both forward movement and backtracking on the rights of LGBT people across the globe.

A single sentence in the Criminal Code can decide whether you can legally remove someone from your home—or whether you're suddenly the one at risk of an assault charge. We break down a fresh BC Supreme Court ruling that reads purpose into Parliament's 2011 reforms on self-defence and defence of property, answering a practical question with big stakes: if you invite someone in and later revoke consent, can you use reasonable force to make them leave? Short answer: yes, if you give a reasonable time to go and the force is proportionate, because the law was never meant to grant squatters' rights to rowdy guests and stubborn salespeople.From there, we follow the thread of “reasonableness” into family law. British Columbia treats partners who live together in a marriage-like relationship for two continuous years as spouses for property division, but the crucial trigger is separation. The two-year limitation period starts when you separate, not when the romance finally fizzles. In the case we unpack, on‑again, off‑again reunions couldn't reset the clock. If you plan to claim division of property, mark the separation date, organise documents, and act before the window closes.We close with a cautionary tale about civil procedure and proportionality: a $9,000 used SUV, mechanical trouble, and a claim that ballooned to $250 million. The court ordered security for costs, balancing access to justice against the burden of defending an outsized, low‑merit case with little chance of recovering expenses. Together, these stories showcase how Canadian courts weigh text, purpose, and fairness—guarding property rights, enforcing clear timelines, and filtering litigation through practical safeguards.If you enjoyed the analysis, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves real‑world law, and leave a quick review to help others find us. Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed. 

Three piece suits, sock wars, and a serious legal deep-dive. In this episode, Joseph and Alper unpack the Supreme Court of Canada's Quebec (Attorney General) v. Senville, 2025 SCC 33 ruling, which struck down the one-year mandatory minimum for possession/accessing child pornography on indictment under Criminal Code s. 163.1(4)(a) and 163.1(4.1)(a). They explain Section 12 of the Charter (cruel and unusual punishment), why reasonable hypotheticals matter, and how judicial discretion prevents grossly disproportionate outcomes using real world scenarios (including an autistic 18-year-old and the youth sexting hypothetical) to illustrate nuance. They also set the record straight on R. v. Friesen (2020 SCC 9): courts remain firm on protecting children and imposing stiffer ranges where warranted; Senville doesn't weaken that. Plus: media framing vs. facts, trusting judges over politics, calls for principled sentencing, and yes whether festive socks ever belong with a three-piece suit.

This week on Driving Law, Kyla Lee and Paul Doroshenko break down Canada's new bail reform legislation and how it quietly changes the Criminal Code to bring back discretionary driving prohibitions in serious offences like criminal negligence and manslaughter. They explain what this means for drivers, defence lawyers, and why the timing of a plea could make a difference. Kyla also addresses controversy around ICBC's Indigenous driver support hotline — pushing back on racist commentary and reminding listeners that reconciliation and accessibility still matter in the justice system. Finally, the Ridiculous Drivers of the Week include a Lamborghini driver speeding through winter without proper tires, and a Halifax woman who stole a fire truck and somehow didn't crash it.

Kyla and Paul open with Ontario's R v. Klemp, where a breath-test certificate of a qualified technician was excluded because it was only shown to the accused, not given as the Criminal Code requires—a reminder that if the Crown wants hearsay shortcuts, it must strictly comply. They kick around the disclosure wrinkle of implied-undertaking “ownership” versus the court's notion of permanent transfer, and how defence counsel might demand an express waiver. Then they unpack Ottawa's latest “tough on crime” talk: expanded reverse-onus for bail, rhetoric about consecutive sentences, and curbing conditional sentences—why most of this won't move the needle, except perhaps encouraging more consecutive terms in serious driving cases, while undermining proven, rehabilitative CSOs.

During the course of an investigation under the Traffic Safety Act, a police officer attempted to effect a warrantless arrest of the applicant for obstruction under s. 129(a) of the Criminal Code. In a pre-trial application, the trial judge found that the police officer was not executing a lawful arrest, and therefore breached the applicant's s. 9 Charter right not to be arbitrarily detained by attempting the arrest. The trial judge acquitted the applicant of assault causing bodily harm. The Court of Appeal allowed the appeal, and ordered a new trial. Argued Date 2025-10-17 Keywords Criminal law — Arrest — Can a police officer arrest an individual for obstruction under the Criminal Code, during the course of a regulatory (or municipal) investigation where the regulatory (or municipal) statute provides for a lesser enforcement remedy — Does the discretion referenced in Goodwin v.

Fresh off a sleepless night thanks to an elderly, opinionated dog, Kyla and Paul dive into a tough week on BC roads and in BC politics. With the public-sector strike still at an impasse, they pivot to a spate of high-profile road-rage cases in North Vancouver, Winnipeg, and Ontario. Kyla explains why we don't need a new “road-rage law” when the Criminal Code already covers assaults, threats, dangerous driving, and leaving the scene, and offers practical advice: protect your own safety first and keep your cool. They then unpack “Xavier's Law,” a proposal to yank licences indefinitely after any fatal crash until charges are declined or a trial ends, and lay out the legal problems: undefined timelines, no clear trigger when prosecutors quietly decline charges, constitutional issues akin to Alberta's struck-down indefinite suspensions, perverse effects on plea discussions, and the fact that BC already has high-risk administrative prohibitions if police believe someone is unsafe. The Ridiculous Driver of the Week crosses the border to Florida, where a habitual violator on a driving prohibition left an idling car by a school and then allegedly punched and bit officers when told to shut it down—an object lesson in how quickly minor misconduct can become major charges.

Influencer Holger Chen under investigation for alleged Lai comments The Criminal Investigation Bureau says it's investigating internet personality Holger Chen after he called for the decapitation of President Lai Ching-te during a recent livestream. According to the bureau, the investigation is focusing on whether Chen's comments may constitute incitement (煽動) to commit a crime and threatening bodily harm under the Criminal Code. The bureau says it has been collecting evidence related to the comments and has asked the New Taipei District Prosecutors' Office to summon Chen for questioning. Chen made the alleged comments during a portion of his livestream on Sunday focusing on politics and cross-strait issues. Survey team reaches Matai'an Creek barrier lake site: Forestry agency One of two teams deployed by the Forestry and Nature Conservation Agency to survey potential routes to the Ma-Tai-An Creek barrier lake are reporting widespread devastation. The agency's Hualien branch deployed a task force consisting of two teams to visit the site on September 30. The teams were tasked with surveying the remnants of the lake and looking for prospective (預期的，盼望中的，未來的) routes for construction equipment to enter the area to rebuild.

Charlotte North reports from Washington Iraq Prisoners Released Under Amnesty Iraq has released over 35,000 people from prisons under an amnesty law passed earlier this year. The law, aimed at reducing prison overcrowding, makes nearly 144,000 more people eligible for relief. The country's Supreme Judicial Council said courts recovered over $34 million in restitution (賠償) from those convicted of theft and corruption. The amnesty covers crimes like corruption, theft and some terrorism-related offenses, though not those involving killings. Sunni lawmakers pushed for the law, arguing their community faced unfair terrorism charges. The law also allows retrials for some terrorism convictions and halts executions. SAmerican Trade Bloc Rules Peru Failing to Curb Illegal Mining A South American trade bloc has ruled that Peru is failing to curb illegal gold mining and mercury (汞) trafficking. The Andean Community, which includes Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, and Bolivia, made the decision on Monday. They have ordered Peru to reform its laws and seize illegal mining equipment. Indigenous groups say mercury from mining is poisoning rivers and food in the Amazon. Peru has 20 working days to comply or face potential (潛在的) trade sanctions.

Elias Makos begins the week with Dan Delmar, Co-founder of the content marketing firm TNKR Media and co-host of the podcast Inspiring Entrepreneurs Canada, and Paul Gott, Lead singer and guitarist for Montreal Punk Rock band the Ripcordz and a journalism professor at Concordia. Canada has officially recognized the State of Palestine. The Irish hip-hop group Kneecap has been banned from entering Canada. The federal government is bringing forward new legislation to add a hate crime offence to the Criminal Code. Journal de Montreal took a look at the new modular homes the city is putting up to house the homeless and found it costs the city about 2600$ per unit a month…

On Sept. 19, Prime Minister Mark Carney's government unveiled a series of planned changes to Canada's criminal code. They, in part, crack down on the explosion of hate crimes across the country over the past two years since Oct. 7, mostly against Jewish people. The new bill is called the “Combatting Hate Act” and still has a way to go before it is passed and takes effect. Ottawa intends to make it a crime when hateful protesters try to scare and intimidate minorities, including Jews, from accessing their community buildings, including synagogues, Jewish Community Centres, Jewish seniors homes, Hebrew schools and even cemeteries. The new law would also, for the first time, outlaw the public display of the Nazi swastika and the SS symbol in Canada, as well as other terrorism signs, if the people waving them are wilfully urging hatred against an identifiable group. Many Jewish leaders are applauding the gesture as a strong signal that the Carney administration is keeping an election promise while putting a strong emphasis on fighting domestic antisemitism–that even while Canada announced on Sept. 21 it has formally recognized the Palestinian State, the government does not want to drag Middle Eastern politics onto Canadian soil. So what's in the new bill? Will it make it safer for Jews today, as the High Holidays begin? The short answer is: no. On today's episode of The CJN's _North Star _podcast, hate crimes legal expert Mark Sandler—founding chair of the Alliance of Canadians Combatting Antisemitism—joins host Ellin Bessner to break down the proposed reforms. Also joining is Ezra Shanken, CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver, who personally met with the prime minister in Ottawa just days before the announcement.

What happens when the line between victim and perpetrator blurs in the eyes of the law? When a homeowner confronts a crossbow-wielding intruder or store employees stop a car theft, should they face criminal charges or civil lawsuits for defending themselves and their property?Barrister Michael Mulligan unpacks the controversial legal landscape of self-defense in Canada, explaining how the 2012 amendments to the Criminal Code created a complex "reasonableness" requirement for those protecting themselves or others. This means that even when facing deadly threats in your own home, the law expects you to consider factors like the relative size, age, and gender of your attacker before responding. As Mulligan notes, "When you're fighting for your life or to save your children, you don't need to worry about weighing up how old this person is and what their gender is."The discussion extends beyond criminal liability to civil lawsuits, highlighting a case where a self-described "career criminal" is suing grocery store employees who prevented him from stealing a car, claiming they damaged his self-esteem. This mirrors Alberta's experience, where a rancher faced legal action from a thief after firing a warning shot. The provincial response—legislation preventing "criminal trespassers" from suing unless force was "grossly disproportionate"—offers a potential model for other provinces.The episode also examines a revealing case about Uber's wheelchair accessibility requirements in BC. Instead of mandating accessible vehicles, the government collects a 90-cent fee per non-accessible trip—money that disappears into general revenue while wheelchair users remain unable to use the service. When one wheelchair user won a $35,000 human rights award, the BC Supreme Court overturned it, revealing the tension between regulation and actual solutions.These cases raise fundamental questions about our legal priorities: Should we better protect those defending themselves and their property? And when regulations like Uber's accessibility fee don't solve the actual problem, what's their real purpose? Listen for an eye-opening look at where our laws might be failing those they're meant to protect.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed.

A stolen car, a drunken joyride, and a woman left with injuries so severe, she’ll live with them for the rest of her life. What happens when a crime becomes a civil lawsuit? When the thief becomes the victim and the driver becomes the one left holding the legal wheel? Miller v Miller is one of Australia's most significant legal challenges, determining if someone is still involved in the committing of a crime if they actively pursue leaving the criminal enterprise.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Plus - Scientists fear political meddling after Premier Doug Ford vows to hunt down anyone testing on dogs. GUESTS:Guidy Mamann - Managing Partner and Immigration Lawyer at Mamann Sandaluk LLP Félix Proulx-Giraldeau is executive director of Evidence for Democracy

In July 1995, sex worker Grace Heathcote was lured to a Cairns motel under the guise of friendship — but what unfolded was a brutal murder. Her body was discovered in a motel room with injuries so severe they shocked experienced forensic pathologists. Within days, two women — Kerry Catherine Lowrie and Kerri-Leah Michelle Ross — were identified as persons of interest. Both were ultimately charged with murder. Their first trial resulted in convictions, but years later, their appeals were heard anew by the Queensland Court of Appeal. Each woman sought to shift blame to the other.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 2012, Brisbane father and real estate agent Gerard Baden-Clay reported his wife missing. Ten days later, Allison Baden-Clay’s body was found beneath a bridge, and suspicion turned to her husband. This is a story of betrayal, an outstanding forensic investigation and a series of red flags that didn’t align with the story Gerard Baden-Clay was telling police and the public. His clandestine affair and financial difficulties led him to commit an unspeakable crime - murdering his own wife. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 120-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 19,737 on turnover of 4.1-billion N-T. The market moved sharply higher on Tuesday as buying was sparked by a rally on Wall Street overnight. Analysts says the rebound largely reflected the gains on the U-S markets overnight on tariff exemptions for electronics products, which resulted in Taiwanese manufacturers in the Apple supply chain staging a rally to push up the broader market. KMT offices in New Taipei searched as part of recall fraud investigation Prosecutors has searched 30 locations in New Taipei as part of an ongoing investigation into allegations of signature forgery (偽造簽名) and fraud related to recall efforts against D-P-P lawmakers. The locations searched included the K-M-T's Banqiao and Sanchong offices. The searches came after the Taipei District Prosecutors' Office released six people on bail after questioning them as part of the investigation The investigation was launched following complaints about the petitions. Those complaints allege that the petitions had over 1,700 signatures of voters who had died, while some voters have said their names had appeared on the petitions without their consent. Prosecutors say the investigation is focusing on allegations of violations of the Criminal Code and the Personal Data Protection Act. Kaitlyn Chen becomes 1st player of Taiwanese descent drafted by WNBA And, U-S college basketballer Kaitlyn Chen has become the first female player of Taiwanese descent to be drafted by a W-N-B-A team. She was selected by the Golden State Valkyries in the third and final round of the league's draft. The point guard played her first three seasons in college for Princeton University before transferring to the University of Connecticut for her final season, which culminated in a national championship in April. While at Princeton, Chen was named the Ivy League tournament's most outstanding (傑出的) player three times from 2022 to 2024. Prior to the draft, E-S-P-N described Chen as a highly underrated player, praising her for her poise, leadership and playmaking abilities.

Canada Academic Uni Association Warning on US Travel The association that represents academic staff at Canadian universities is warning its members against non-essential travel to the United States. The Canadian Association of University Teachers released updated travel advice Tuesday due to the “political landscape” created by President Donald Trump's administration and reports of some Canadians encountering difficulties crossing the border. The association says academics who are from countries that have tense diplomatic relations with the United States, or who have themselves expressed negative views about the Trump administration, should be particularly cautious (謹慎) about U.S. travel. In addition, the association says academics should carefully consider what information they have, or need to have, on their electronic devices when crossing the border, and take actions to protect sensitive information.

Democracy stands at a crossroads in British Columbia as Michael Mulligan delivers a powerful analysis of the NDP's proposed Tariff Response Act (Bill C-7). Drawing on historical parallels that send shivers down the spine, Mulligan unpacks how this legislation bears troubling similarities to Nazi Germany's 1933 Enabling Act—legislation that effectively rendered their legislature irrelevant and set the stage for catastrophe.The bill's provisions would allow the government to make retroactive amendments to laws, shield officials from judicial review for procurement decisions, and potentially criminalize non-compliance with up to two years imprisonment. Most alarming is how the exclusion of the Offense Act creates a backdoor to criminal prosecution under Section 127 of the Criminal Code—potentially criminalizing actions that weren't illegal when performed. "The response to right-wing populism and erratic behaviour ought not to be a populist, left-wing, arbitrary response," Mulligan warns, as he urges Green Party MLAs who hold the balance of power to consider the weight of history before supporting such a transfer of power.In the second segment, Mulligan discusses a recent Victoria case with significant implications for homeowners and contractors. The court ruled that consumers can cancel construction contracts lacking specific completion dates within 12 months under the BC Business Practices and Consumer Protection Act. When a sunroom company demanded an additional $17,310 and dumped materials "the size of a small car" in a homeowner's driveway after cancellation, the judge ordered a full refund plus damages for trespass. Take note whether you're planning renovations or providing services—completion dates aren't just good business practice; they're legally required. Have you checked your contracts lately?Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed. 

Queer Muslims and Their Allies Amid Indonesia's conservative turn, the moral panics of the 2010s and the introduction of the draconian Criminal Code in 2022, LGBTQI+ people are as vulnerable as at any time in the country's modern history. In a nation with the world's largest Muslim population and where religion plays a central role in defining belonging and nationalism, the identities of queer Indonesian Muslims provide valuable insight into how these subjectivities are negotiated in everyday life. How do queer Muslims maintain their faith and religious practices in an increasingly hostile environment? While in the West religion and queerness are often seen as incompatible, how and why do LGBTQI+ Indonesian Muslims hold onto their faith? How does progressive Islam inform the work of their Allies and what support do they provide? In this week's episode Jemma chats with Dr Diego Garcia Rodriguez, a Leverhulme-funded Research Fellow at the University of Nottingham. His book, 'Gender, Sexuality and Islam in Contemporary Indonesia: Queer Muslims and Their Allies' (Routledge), was published in English in 2024 and will be published in Indonesian by Marjin Kiri in 2025. In 2025, the Talking Indonesia podcast is co-hosted by Dr Jemma Purdey from the Australia-Indonesia Centre, Dr Jacqui Baker from Murdoch University, Dr Elisabeth Kramer from the University of New South Wales and Tito Ambyo from RMIT.

In the spring of 2017, Jordan Peterson first went viral by writing this in Canada's National Post:  I will never use words I hate, like the trendy and artificially constructed words “zhe” and “zher.” These words are at the vanguard of a post-modern, radical leftist ideology that I detest, and which is, in my professional opinion, frighteningly similar to the Marxist doctrines that killed at least 100 million people in the 20th century. Remember that horseshit, or things like it? Did you guffaw because he was obviously absurd? Did you try to reason with his stans online? Did you see him as a crank influencer, or a dangerous political figure?  Did you hope his ideas would be beaten down in the marketplace of ideas? Or did you seek him out at a public event and shout him down with a bullhorn? Today, word salad like this is everywhere—including in Project 2025, now driving the Trump admin.  Matthew visits the antifascist woodshed to investigate the liberal manners, free speech naivety, and lack of community alliances that dissuaded him from grabbing the mic during a Peterson Q&A in 2017 and shouting:  “Your ideas are fascist and you should STFU. You are endangering trans people with your bullshit. Why do you care about how they experience their bodies, you whining pervert? Why are you inciting hatred against young people who want a better world?” Because… look where we are now.

Episode 352: At 5:18 a.m. on May 9, 1992, in Plymouth, Pictou County, Nova Scotia, in the Westray Mine, a methane gas explosion, followed by a coal dust blast, ripped through the underground tunnels, claiming the lives of 26 miners working the night shift. The tragedy unfolded against a backdrop of known safety violations and ignored warnings. In the aftermath, a gripping rescue attempt captivated the nation as teams of drägermen braved hazardous conditions in a desperate search for survivors. The bodies of 15 miners were recovered during the initial rescue and recovery efforts. However, the remains of 11 miners were never recovered and remain entombed deep within the mine to this day. Despite criminal charges being filed against the mine owners and its management, no convictions were secured due to the complexity of establishing legal responsibility. More than ten years later, the federal government introduced amendments to the Criminal Code in response to this tragedy.

In episode #149 Joseph, Michael, and Diana discuss the complex legal defense of "honest but mistaken belief in communicated consent" in sexual assault cases. They explain that this defense, codified in Section 273.2(b) of the Criminal Code, requires the defendant to have reasonably believed that the complainant communicated consent through words or conduct. The hosts emphasize the importance of the defendant taking "reasonable steps" to confirm consent, a precondition that has been legally established to prevent assumptions based on passivity or ambiguous conduct The conversation delves into the nuances of this defense, including the shift in burden of proof it potentially creates for the accused. They discuss how the 1992 amendments to the Criminal Code have impacted the interpretation of this defense, requiring defendants to provide evidence of taking reasonable steps to ascertain consent or age in relevant cases. The hosts also explore the challenges in defining "reasonable steps" and how this concept applies differently in cases involving strangers versus those with a prior history.
