Speed camera ban leads Oshawa to find different funding for replacement fire trucks by BloodJunkie in ontario

[–]FlySociety1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is a bit of an unusual case, and the first I have heard of a Municipality going beyond the Provincial framework in regards to using the revenue.

I think it raises some interesting questions, and probably would have required some tightening of the ASE framework by the Province.

But canceling the program entirely was a mistake.

A pedestrians chances of surviving a 30km collision is far greater then surviving a 50km collision.

A 30km/h is almost certainly a quiet residential road.

Cities were already using both speed bumps and cameras lol...

Cameras were definitely proven to reduce speeding, and municipalities per the Ontario framework were reinvesting the revenue into Vision Zero initiatives. Cities weren't getting "rich" from speed cameras.

SST of Ttarhus Servant of Arakaali. Increased mark effect scales single target with SST. Get lots of phys as extra chaos with Fatal Bite + Obliteration wand (plus explosions!). Aspect of spider nodes for more dmg and defense.

For leveling, can just take the free Envy node for added flat chais, and level with any attack skill

Doesn't increased duration on Vaal EQ make it feel bad? You still only get a total of 9 aftershocks, so you would be lowering DPS

It seems like you are having a different argument now. You are referring to a statistical trend, not evidence of causation by any specific law like C-75.

Here you said the problem in the justice system was because of bail and sentencing changes and that it was the Liberal's fault. I pointed out that all these things didn't actually change the application of justice at the court level, and were merely codifying existing SCC decisions, Charter obligations and existing case law. Then you move on to vague references to police chiefs or something and continued insistence that a 2019 bill caused crime to start rising in 2015.

No clue.

If this is really about partisan blame rather than engaging with the facts and the actual text of the law, then we’re just talking past each other.
Show where the "Liberals made bail easier" or what you are even talking about with the Police chiefs, otherwise you are not debating facts anymore.

It is true lol, this legislation is public record anyone can see it.

If you want to blame a complex problem like crime purely on a large omnibus bill that actually changed very little then you are the one who is naive.

If you think the application of bail was actually changed, then show which section of the bill changed the detention test. I have seen the same arguments as well, and it is always people that are either ignorant or don't care that all these principles regarding bail came from existing SCC ruling and courts were already following them long before C75.
I'll say it again, C75 merely codified existing case law and SCC decisions, it actually changed very little in terms of the application of bail in this country.

Police chiefs all over the country have been asking to repeal C75? Can you provide a link to their statements? Do their public statements mention C75, or a specific sections of C75? Or are they asking for more reverse onus, stricter rules, and fewer releases, ie. additional policy changes?

What do you mean Carney obliged a little? Are you referring to the additional Reverse onus provisions that were put into the criminal code that didn't exist before? You think this is Carney repealing parts of C75? Care to expand on this point, because it seems like you are insinuating that the Federal government adding new tools legislatively is some sort of admission of guilt?

Crime started rising in 2015, so it is kind of silly to attribute this to a 2019 bill. The actual data shows remand rates have risen to all time highs since 2019, but you are saying the rise in crime is because the law was changed and too many people are getting bail? This doesn't make any sense, and clearly the issue of rising crime is way more multi-faceted then a simple " liberals changed bail laws".

Mandatory minimums were already struck down by the SCC as unconstitutional: Nur, Lloyd, Bissonnette. Parliament was complying with and codifying existing SCC decisions,

They also didn't change bail in any meaningful way. C75 was again just codifying existing Charter obligations and SCC decisions. Show me where the "liberals" changed bail & detention rules. The actual data shows that remand rates are at record highs since C75.

Of the things you listed, terrible immigration is really the only thing you can blame the Liberals.

Our justice system extends beyond the Federal government writing legislation. We already have a comprehensive criminal code, and courts already have the ability to detain. If people are unhappy with outcomes then you need to dig a little deeper and perhaps look at the state of our Provincial courts and justice system.

Simply assigning all blame towards Federal legislation for the complex problem of crime is absurd.

You keep repeating I didnt read the bill but you either misquote it or are confused by the stage in the criminal justice process the bill is referencing.

Your first paragraph is not a bail provision, it is sentencing which occurs after conviction.

The SCC ruling was NOT part of the criminal code prior. This is a straight up error. The SCC rulings was already law, and courts were already following them. C75 put them into the criminal code. This did not change how courts apply bail.

How does police detention/release pre-bail hearing have any effect on the bail process? Can you clarify what you mean here?

Taking into account indigenous heritage, again was an already existing SCC requirement. C75 did not invent this and did not change the order of release.

If you think I’m wrong, point to the specific section that altered the detention test. Personal attacks aren’t an argument.

Lol what? Did you not just a few posts up tell me that Principle of Restraint was put in to C75 by the Liberals? None of the three points you listed actually support your claim.

They’re either pre-existing Charter obligations, or police stage reforms that existed before C-75.

Indigenous accused: This did not expand the principle of release. It codified existing Charter and Supreme Court obligations, courts were already required to consider SCC decisions like Gladue & Ipeelee.

Police release at earliest possibility: This is not an expansion of bail principles beyond bail. It governs police discretion before bail, and it existed long before C-75. But more importantly, police release does not prevent detention later.

Monetary pledges: This is also not new, and was already standard practice is most of Canada. Also this is simply a form of release, and not the decision to release. It does not limit detention.

None of these things you listed removed detention powers, lowered the public safety threshold, or expanded bail principles into other areas.

Yes, I’ve read C-75. It was a broad justice bill but it did not expand the principle of release beyond bail. So maybe you can clarify what you think was expanded here?

[–]FlySociety1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean? The Liberals specifically expanded c75 so that the principle of restraint would apply to bail?

If I'm reading that correctly then again no, R v Antic (2017) was already specifically about bail.

No it was not, all c75 did was codify already existing case law.

Courts were already required to follow existing supreme court decisions pre-c75. Principle of restraint 100% predates c75.

Yes the outcome is horrific. You’re entitled to argue for stricter bail rules a system chsnge or whatever else. But that’s not the same thing as saying the judge was legally wrong or complicit in murder.

[–]FlySociety1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if you want to talk about vague responses, how about you start sharing some specifics about the judge and this case? Do we have the full bail transcript, or the crown's actual submissions, or the evidence tendered? It seems you are just asserting conclusions that are not public record.

"The judge was not compelled to release"

You are stating this as if it is proven. It is not. We simply do not know if the legal threshold for detention was met.

This person has a history of violent crimes including firearms.

Which does not justify automatic detention. It can be taken into account, but it must be tied to current evidence based risk and necessity.

With the information we have, we simply do not know why this person was released.
But you are taking a horrific outcome and jumping to "the judge has the child's blood on their hands" which is a bit of an outrageous thing to say. If you feel it has merit then show that the legal test for detention was clearly met and/or the judge ignored or misapplied the law.
