What a loss. It's hard to overstate the contribution that Alan Young made to criminal justice in Canada. Thank you, professor Young. Your legacy will live on through the lives of all of those whose wrongful convictions you played a part in overturning.
We mourn the loss of Professor Alan Young, a trailblazer in Canadian law & beloved educator at Osgoode. Co-Founder of Osgoode’s Innocence Project, he mentored students in overturning wrongful convictions & inspired many careers in criminal law.

Important case that may come to the @SCC_eng. The power in R. v. Ladouceur to randomly stop vehicles without suspicion of an offence was codified in Quebec statute. That statute was found unconstitutional by Quebec's highest appellate court.

That is the question the Supreme Court is considering this week & how the results could affect sentencing rules for young offenders.
Thanks to @AnneMarieAMK and @YourMorning for having me on today to discuss when a young person can be sentenced as an adult, an issue before the Supreme Court of Canada this week.

“I’m a middle-aged Black man. I’ve got all of these degrees, I’ve won cases at the Supreme Court – and I still go to places where I’m viewed as less than, where I’m presumed to be the defendant, or presumed to be dangerous, just because of the way I appear. And that’s a heavy burden,” says lawyer and racial justice advocate Bryan Stevenson.
“I can tell you, because I’m getting older, that when you’re constantly navigating these presumptions of dangerousness and guilt, it’s exhausting.”

Congratulations to @Nader_Hasan_law and @alexheine93 for successfully defending the presumption of innocence in the Zameer case. This case was a tragedy, but anyone with knowledge of the evidence knows this wasn’t a murder.

I recently spoke with CBC's @thomasdaigle about Nathaniel Veltman's sentencing hearing, the value of victim impact statements in sentencing & whether a finding his actions were "terrorist activity" would affect his sentence (or parole).
