I don't see how any Human Rights Lawyer in their right mind can be in favor of something so contrary to legal principles.... which tells me she owes some people some bad favors in exchange for winning. I wonder if MADD or the police aided her campaign.
The BC ruling is really just persuasive on AB law, and I suspect if they allow it, it'll be smashed by a judge's ruling pretty quick.
Nothing bugs me more than suspension of civil liberties, suspension of due process, clandestine implementation of social conservative/temperance values and reaching for the low hanging fruit in the name of "risk avoidance" and "safety"
If Premier Redford and company want to lower drunk driving... here's a novel concept. Maybe invest money in 24 hour LRT service.
