Prohibiting judges from considering immigration consequences at sentencing ignores reality. Rempel Garner’s manufactured outrage could have serious implications for judicial discretion, writes Michael Spratt.

From me: Courts must consider immigration consequences in sentencing. The CPC's performative outrage has serious implications for judicial discretion & fairness. It is too much to ask politicians for some grown-up honesty when it comes to Justice policy?

New from me: When Doug Ford refuses to disclose records, loses in court, and then moves to change the law to avoid disclosure, it raises a simple question. What is Ford trying so hard to hide?

Danielle Smith’s referendum on judges isn’t about democracy. It’s about power. And it’s part of a troubling trend in conservative politics: misrepresenting the facts and undermining public confidence in the justice system.

I admit that I have not run the numbers, but the article you cite doesn’t support Smith contention or your fuck off’ing - “76.3 per cent — of appointees who had previously made political donations”
Why Poilievre’s false claims about my client reveal a much bigger problem with grievance politics. Lying about court decisions to fuel outrage isn’t “holding the system to account.” It’s poisoning it.

Were you in court? Did you read the decision? I was that man’s lawyer. He was sentenced to 5 months jail.
It is ok to disagree with the sentence. It is ok to suggest policy or legislative responses to the decision. But it does us all a disservice when you lie.
A man defaces Canada’s Holocaust Monument with blood-red paint and faces no real jail time.
Under the Liberals, antisemitism is tolerated, excused, and waved away for political convenience.
When hatred against Jews is met with leniency instead of punishment, the message sent to everyone is crystal clear.
A Conservative government will stand with Jewish Canadians and end this soft-on-crime, moral cowardice.
Enough is enough.
@Skydog36764365 @randroid0579094 Time served on remand is notoriously hard time, 3 to a cell, 24 hour lock downs, no programs, no contact visits, all in filthy conditions. It is very very bad.
@Bebejen1313 That is not how things work. He served 150 days in "real jail" part of this was when he was arrested and part was after his plea of guilt (so not awaiting trial). But yes, he didn't get any further time than the real jail he served.
