Legal rulings to note

Quebec is going to appeal a 2022 ruling that outlaws police spot checks on the grounds that they foster racial profiling. Quebec hopes the Supreme Court will see things its way, rather than confirming what both the Quebec Superior Court, and the Quebec Court of Appeal have already decided.

In other fun legal news, the Supreme Court has chosen not to hear an appeal about the legality of the 1982 patriation of the Canadian constitution. Oldtime PQ stalwart Daniel Turp plans to take the matter to the United Nations Human Rights Council because after all, poor Daniel, he’s had his human rights denied for too long.
