Section 1: Reasonable Limits.
I think protecting innocence is more important than creating an entertaining legal film
OJEN invites students to weigh in on the social, moral & legal questions presented by broadcasting trials. Students can join the discussion through the Twitter Moot (https://t.co/8yyfF77opW) or the Charter Challenge (https://t.co/3Go1oSIrQA). Teachers, registrations are now open!
In Charter Challenge, each student team researches & writes a factum with legal arguments in favour of the appellant or respondent. The teams with the best factum for each side are invited to make their arguments at the Court of Appeal for Ontario. More: https://t.co/3Go1oSIrQA

@CentralPeelLaw @Emilia02095 @sdcilaw@Morgynw55@LeahyLaw_No@mcd_faith@OJEN_ROEJ Even if economic status was listed under section 15, the argument people are making is whether it is a justified infringement. When applying the Oakes test to justify any infringement on our rights, we need to balance individual interests vs societal protections under the law
@CentralPeelLaw @Emilia02095 @LeahyLaw_No@Morgynw55@mcd_faith@OJEN_ROEJ Sometimes we do. Under legal realism, sometimes judge interpretations stem from bias and perspective. However case law supports the existing legislation. Judicial interpretations of the law supports the restrictions of tent encampments.
@CentralPeelLaw @Emilia02095 @sdcilaw@Morgynw55@LeahyLaw_No@mcd_faith@OJEN_ROEJ Just because it is a violation, does not mean it is legally unjustified. There are many examples of courts finding section 7 infringements (Abbotsford v Shantz, Victoria v aadams) but at the end of the day, Brown, J states we need to balance the uses of the parks for all to enjoy
