I wish our legislators would draft tech related laws with the same logic, reason, and thought that judges apply. Strikes me that in general the SCC "gets it" far better than lawmakers.
I have just discovered your channel and watched a few of your videos with interest. Thank-you. This has nothing to do with this video, and I am not sure if it falls under your expertise. The following is an incident that happened to me a few years ago that doesn't sit right. I was on my way to work by bus and metro. I scanned my Opus card (monthly pass in this case) upon entering the metro as required. I took the metro to the station I was going to transfer to the bus. After going through the exit turnstiles, I saw several metro security guards and a large crowd of people (over 30). I proceeded to walk around them to the next escalator to exit the station and catch my bus on the other side, which was leaving in 6 minutes or so. I heard a shout but did not really pay attention as I had to make my bus to get to work on time. Then there was a much louder shout saying something like, stop or you will be under arrest. I turned around to see one of the metro security was shouting at me. I walked back to him, and he asked to see my Opus card. I handed it to him. He scanned it, saw it was fine, and put it in his shirt pocket. I said I had to catch a bus to get to work, and could I please have my card back. His response was that I should have waited in line with everyone else, and now he was going to make me wait. He made me wait a good five minutes, just standing in front of me with a smug look on his face. None of the other security guards seemed to notice or pay attention. I felt as though he had no right to do this (any of them for that matter). It seems to me I scanned my card on entry to the Metro, the turnsile opened to let me in. If they had wanted to double check this for any passenger, it should be on the train (or bus) while in transit. I don't believe they should be stopping and delaying people after they have left the paid area to check fares. I was quite shaken as well as being a half hour late for work. I am still not sure if I am correct in this assumption. Would appreciate your take on it.
Well in NB according to the Assistant Deputy Attorney General the prosecution has no duty to provide third party notice…they tell the public the sole discretion lies with the court. Perhaps you could give the OAG in NB a few lessons from Schulich School Of Law. My sensitive information was collected, used and disclosed from a regulatory complaint with no notice and no opportunity to join proceedings.
I think they missed an opportunity to meaningfully strengthen privacy protections. Instead of requiring a warrant, just order that no one can collect and or store your IP.
Thanks, David! There is no doubt that this SCC decision was warranted ...

They cant detain you for no reason, based on how you described it this was illegal

Looking for a privacy lawyer in VA.
