The Minister of Justice is quoted as saying, “It would not give police any more powers than they already have under common or provincial law to stop drivers at random to determine their sobriety.” Her argument is that nothing changes. Your argument is that this is only going to give individual police officers enormous discretion to target racialized minorities, young people and the like on a whim. Your argument would be that we ought to make sure that this doesn't happen, obviously. Why don't we simply not wait until abuses occur but demand that the Minister of Justice send this to the courts for them to decide whether you're right or the government is right?
