Thank you very much.
We also know that the first essential condition of judicial independence is that judges may not be removed on arbitrary grounds. That's the principle of immovability provided under paragraph 11(d) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. It's essential to maintaining public trust. It's also the antithesis of discretionary or arbitrary appointment.
How are the changes proposed in Bill C‑9 consistent with the rights protected under paragraph 11(d) of the charter?
