The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms simply states that, if someone is detained, they have the right to be heard by a judge, so that the reasons for their detention can be assessed. That is a basic rule in a free and democratic country. A person cannot be detained without an independent judge assessing the government's right to detain them. Lawyers, the Canadian Bar Association and the Barreau du Québec, human rights groups and average Canadians are shocked to see the government proposing something like this. I trust that the courts of law will repeal this legislation. Why even introduce a bill when it's already known that it violates the Canadian Constitution?
