  1. PM butts is going to stack the juries to get the outcomes the SJ Marxists want. Prosecutor Andrey Vishinsky and Judge Roland Freisler would have been proud.

  3. Even CBC reported before the trial on the huge selection pool, something like 700 citizens including a large number of natives. So a significant number refused to serve, or didn’t bother showing up; what is the Minister’s response to that?

  4. “Hang that fu&&ing Indian” – say this and not only are you off the jury but trudeau wants you in jail
    “Hang that fu&&ing whitey” – say this and you will stay on the jury and get the order of canada
    No, this will not cause problems, none at all!
    Reap the whirlwind canada, reap it!

  5. If I didn’t already know he and his Grits are stupid as posts, I’d be appalled by their latest virtue signaling power politics:
    Anecdote warning.
    “According to the prospective juror, who did not go on to serve on the jury, a significant number of Aboriginal people in the room asked to be disqualified, either because they had a relationship with Colten Boushie’s family or because of other circumstances that made them unavailable.”
    The person estimates that more than half of the Aboriginal people were granted permission by the judge to be exempt from the trial and free to go home.”
    As the prospective jury describes, some of the remaining 45 or so were vocal in expressing their bias and signalling to everyone in the room they were unfit to serve on the jury.”
    “You could audibly hear some of them talking amongst themselves, discussing how they were going to hang Stanley, or they were going to make sure he gets hung, or that if they don’t get the results they want, that they were going to handle it themselves,” the person said of the Aboriginal people who remained. This account comes from one individual who spoke with the Sun, and has not yet been corroborated by other witnesses.”

  6. I wonder if Justice Minister Jodi inherited her father’s racism, “We should have killed you all when we had the chance” – Chief Bill Wilson, speaking to a group of white male foresters representing the Coastal forest industry almost 30 years ago. The Spawn, being incapable of thinking beyond identity politics, would naturally want to incorporate more toxicity into Canada’s already poisoned sociology.

  7. Why bother having trials when the SJWs already know what the outcome is supposed to be? Maybe they should make it a two-day process: charge ’em one day, hang ’em the next.

  8. So how many aboriginals were actually on the jury?
    The media says there were no ‘visible aboriginals’.
    What does that mean?
    Does that mean no one wearing a feather headdress was on the jury?
    What does visible mean?
    Is it a legal term?
    If you are called for jury duty put a headdress on and wear a buckskin jacket and moccasins.
    If you have any questions about how to dress like another culture I’m sure Justin can help you out after he showed his expertise in India.

  9. “Why not employ the “Monty Python” standard of justice and free only those made of wood?”
    Exactly. But you want see any skits to that effect on 22 Minutes.

  10. One would never see anything amusing on that show.
    It’s bad enough that we have legalised vendettas (human rights tribunals) and unelected judges, now we have this.

  13. […] reversing the onus on bail for those previously convicted of violence against a current or former spouse, common-law partner or dating partner. Intimate partner violence would also be considered an aggravating factor in sentencing and the bill would also make way for the possibility of higher maximum sentences for repeat offenders.
    Yeah, this is going to backfire just like the “mandatory arrest” rules did, when the feminists found out that the cops were arresting women because they were the ones initiating and escalating the violence.
    Reversing the onus on bail doesn’t sound like it’s going to survive a Charter challenge, either, as discriminating on the basis of criminal record is a protected ground in Canada.

  14. Didn’t Martin Luther King say something about, “not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character”?

  15. Well worth reading. A retired judge weighs on the the Stanley trial and the media nonsense.

    “This is what happened on Gerald Stanley’s farm the day Colten Boushie died. The five people clearly entered his property intending to steal a vehicle. It was proved that these young people were not there to fix a flat tire, even though the media tries to portray it that way. The group attempted to steal a vehicle from a nearby farm, smashing the window of the vehicle with a rifle they had with them in a botched theft attempt. The rifle – damaged, but loaded and operational – was with the five when they trespassed on the Stanley property. In fact, it was found right beside the body of Boushie in the SUV he was driving.
    As soon as they entered onto the property, one member of the group jumped into a truck that Stanley was fixing for one of his neighbours. He exited that truck and got onto one of Stanley’s ATVs and attempted to start it. Meanwhile, Stanley’s son smashed the windshield of the 2003 Ford Escape that Boushie was almost certainly driving, in an attempt to stop the brazen theft that was in progress. The driver of the Escape, promptly smashed it into a vehicle that belonged to Stanley’s wife.
    The situation was out of control, and was even more dangerous by the fact that the group had been drinking heavily. One of the five testified that he had consumed thirty shots of liquor that day. Colten Boushie’s blood alcohol was over .3, four times the legal driving limit. It was in that alcohol-fueled, and highly volatile atmosphere that Boushie was killed. Anyone in the immediate vicinity of the Stanley farm could just as easily have been killed that day.”
    Read the whole thing.

  17. I’m entitled to be tried by a jury of my peers. FULL STOP!
    By rights his vile bit of virtue signalling legislation shouldn’t survive a Supreme Court challenge, however I have no faith that the court would do the right thing.

  18. sooooooo after these LIEberal ‘reforms’ are in place, is pm socks still going to second guess unacceptable verdicts?

  19. Separation is the only way to ever be free of the vagaries of Ottawa and Quebec. Funny how Wall, Moe, Notely, …, no one ever even brings it up. It is like you cannot be a Premier in this country if you are not a vassal of the Laurentian elite…

  20. How many Trudeau senior appointees are still sitting in the supreme court? But don’t politicize tye judiciary by wanting elected judges.

  21. What Jr and the Liberals are attempting is to remove the blindfold from Lady Justice. But how is it possible to have a 12 person jury system with a predetermined idea of what the decision should be? It isn’t;one can have the ideologically correct decision the government wishes, or one decided by the time honoured jury of peers. Stalin’s show trials of the 1930s were an example of the former. This legislation would nudge Canada towards that kind of a justice system.

  23. The insane length of trials is the main reason the courts are jammed. The jury selection I was on recently and not selected was estimated to take 1-2 months. Bissonnette’s trial was to take 2 months. The only, unless I am missing something, question is was this the person who perpetrated the crime. This should only take a couple of days at most, what could possibly take months to discuss.

  24. “What did you think the purpose of Trudeau’s charter was?”
    First and foremost, a blatant political exercise by turdo la first to give the appearance of severing ties with Britain for the express purpose of: gaining favour in Quebec, among the Irish, and in Academia.
    Second, To ensure that appointed lefty judges would be the final arbiters on all matters.
    Third, to convince the (increasingly dumb) masses that all the rights they ever needed were safe in Daddy’s arms.
    And fourth, but by no means last, to ensure that property rights – by their non-inclusion – were devalued to the advantage of the state and the detriment of the landowner.

  25. “Maybe they should make it a two-day process: charge ’em one day, hang ’em the next.” Vishinsky had it down to an hour at one point. Then it was a short trip to the basement.

  27. “Maybe they should make it a two-day process: charge ’em one day, hang ’em the next.”
    Ya. To quote sheriff Cobb from Silverado, “We’re gonna give you a fair trial followed by a first rate hangin.”

  29. “And fourth, but by no means last, to ensure that property rights – by their non-inclusion – were devalued to the advantage of the state and the detriment of the landowner.”
    It was Jean Chretien federal, attorney general and justice minister, Saskatchewan attorney general Roy Romano, and Ontario attorney general Roy McMurtry, framed the wording of the constitution, and determined property rights would not be in the constitution because it would limit the state’s ability to transfer wealth.

  30. Why does it take months for a trial that should take a few days? Its called billable hours, the gravy train that most lawyers rely on to pay office expenses and provide them with their self entitled lifestyle. So if you are a court appointed lawyer paid for by the taxpayer whats the rush, after all every possible avenue that may influence {confuse] the jury must be explored.

  31. He’s actually surprised me with his “in your grill” tactics as of late.
    Let’s hope that is a slow-burn towards punching Justin in his stupid face. I think that would win votes.

  32. I believe 750 people were actually summoned. They are selected randomly by health card numbers . There is a significant percentage of the population in the draw rea that is aboriginal. My guess is it would be in excess of 25 percent, but I really don’t know for sure. A significant portion did not honour the summons . I was called for jury and it was clearly stated this was a punishable offence . There is no way that there was not a significant number of aboriginal people called to serve . What the government is attempting to do is a very dangerous precedent affecting our justice system and our democracy.

  34. I expect we will see a significant increase in hung juries because of this. You can expect to be empaneled on a jury with a social worker, a gas station attendant, a biker, and some looney toon who just got out of some institution. It’s not easy getting 12 people to agree on anything, but it’s better to start with 12 who are looking for justice.

  35. Joe Clark pushed for the inclusion of property rights. turdo la first and the NDP went against it.
