"A B.C. judge says police breached the charter rights of three people arrested for blocking work on the Coastal GasLink (CGL) pipeline, and they will receive a reduction in their sentences because of that."

The police were reprimanded by the judge for comments the police made about red paint on the faces of these people and the judge said he will consider giving them a shorter sentence.

But the judge also said their rights were violated when two of them hid in a couple of shacks on the site and the police had no warrant to enter the shacks .

This sounds bizarre.   If the RCMP had an injunction to clear protesters out of the area because they were blocking the construction of the Coastal Gaslink pipeline project, why would they need a warrant to enter some shacks where these people were located?  This doesn't make sense.  This just proves again how faulty our justice system is.  These people were in the location illegally and needed to be removed.  It is ridiculous to claim the police needed a warrant on top of an injunction to enter a shack to arrest them.  They were there illegally.

Could it be because he's a Judge and therefore know law more than you do?

Strong knowledge of the law isn't really a requirement to be a judge in Canada. It's not even a consideration. Neither is good judgment or intelligence.

The fact is Canada, under Liberals/NDP, is a very soft-on-crime country.  I am just watching a case on the news.  A store owner who is targeted regularly by shop lifters was told by police the crimes in her store are not a priority because the thefts are under $5,000.  These kind of stories are on the news practically every day.  We can only hope the next government, if it is Conservative, will do something about this.  Some business owners are giving up their businesses because it is getting just too expensive and businesses are losing more than they make.

The business owner in this business posted some videos taken of the criminals in her store and was told she could be in trouble.  Apparently nobody has a right to post pictures or videos of criminals robbing a store in Canada.  The store owner is ignoring this and challenging it.  Good for her.

Criminals have more rights than victims in Canada.

Notice the different tone. 

When it's a Soros backed DEI astroturf protest it "violates human rights" to remove

When it's a grassroots protest against vaccination mandates it's a threat worthy of stealing people's bank accounts, running them over with horses, utilizing police brutality, and illegally invoking the emergencies act

The fact is they were convicted and you're just whining that you wanted them punished more severely.
Good Christian fellow, punish! punish! Punish them MORE!

Must flagellate himself with thornbush for forgetting to say grace at McDonalds.
