On Wednesday, Canada's new Justice Minister, Arif Virani, appeared before the Standing Senate Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs to defend the government's new bail bill, C-48, which reverses the onus for some people seeking bail - making bail potentially much harder to get, and putting pressures on the criminal justice system. I had some questions. He had some answers. Watch our exchange here: https://youtu.be/NU2CWU-4Ckk?si=qyjJKkBa80BEAYOq #SenateofCanada #bail #bailreform #cdnpoli #Canada #C48 #BillC48

@taco Well, that is the question. Are these new reverse onus rules constitutional? I’m not usually a members of the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee, but I’ve been filling in recently. I hope to be able to ask just those questions of witnesses who are experts in constitutional and criminal law. #LCJC https://sencanada.ca/en/committees/lcjc/44-1 #SenateofCanada #C48 #BillC48

Bill C-48, designed to make significantly harder for people accused of certain violent crimes to be granted bailed was rushed through the House of Commons this week, approved instantly & unanimously without any committee study. But despite political pressure, senators are going to do their job of sober second thought. https://halifax.citynews.ca/2023/09/21/house-of-commons-dropped-the-ball-on-rushing-liberal-bail-reform-bill-senate-hears/ #C48 #BillC48 #bail #bailreform #SenateofCanada #cdnpoli

@LALegault I spoke out about this in the Senate yesterday. I am deeply concerned about the way this bill is being hurried, without proper study or debate. https://toronto.citynews.ca/2023/09/21/house-of-commons-dropped-the-ball-on-rushing-liberal-bail-reform-bill-senate-hears/ #C48 #BillC48 #bail #reverseonus #SenateofCanada #Canada #cdnpoli
