I really really hate how the media reports on Court decisions. Give us a link to the text of the decision. Failing that, at least give us the goddamn name of the case so we can look it up ourselves.

Just worthless. I do not care what you think about what the Court says as a journalist. I want to read what they actually said.

EDIT: More helpfully, CBC did link to the case which confirmed that the title of this thread is wrong. They did not consider the law "illegal", that's not even a thing. Nor did they rule that it was unconstitutional. They simply interpreted the provision in light of the existing law and said that if the intent was to remove credit for pre-trial sentencing the legislature would have to do that expressly.
