SCC Changes DUI Driving Prohibitions, NS Court Will Not Rule On Blockade Ban, US Supreme Court Bans Harvard/UNC Affirmative Action Programs
This is going to be the last video prior to a summer break for the Rodgers Brief. If any major stories arise, I will be back with videos, and regular scheduled weekly analysis will return in September. This week, I review the Supreme Court of Canada's decision in R. v. Basque, where the Court made a major change to how driving prohibitions are done following convictions for driving while impaired. Now, pre-conviction driving prohibition time will count towards a sentence. Also this week, the NS Civil Liberties Association was denied standing to argue that the highway blockade bans in NS in January and February 2022 were unjustified, a decision granting a mother's move to Ottawa with her child was overturned by the Court of Appeal, and a man who was convicted of shooting his brother was found not guilty of intent to endanger his brother's life. Finally, I review the decision of the US Supreme Court to strike down the affirmative action admission programs at Harvard and the University of North Carolina
