"Eight years later, pastry plot lawsuit settled; Top court vindicates lawyer who was held and strip-searched for an offence he didn't commit"

ADVERTISEMENTS
"Eight years later, pastry plot lawsuit settled; Top court vindicates lawyer who was held and strip-searched for an offence he didn't commit": The Vancouver Sun today contains an article that begins, "The Supreme Court of Canada has vindicated Vancouver lawyer Cameron Ward after an eight-year legal war over a Groucho Marxist pastry plot. The country's highest court said Friday the celebrated defender of underdogs should not have been strip-searched over an alleged threat to throw a pie at former-prime minister Jean Chretien."

The Toronto Globe and Mail reports today that "Supreme Court upholds compensation for breach of Charter rights; Ruling the first to say damages can be awarded even if authorities acting in good faith."

The Toronto Sun reports that "Charter breaches worth money, top court says."

And The Canadian Press reports that "Supreme Court says people can seek damages for charter breaches even if there's no loss."

You can access yesterday's ruling of the Supreme Court of Canada at this link.
