CANADA (ATTORNEY GENERAL) 207 SCHREIBER v. CANADA (ATTORNEY GENERAL) BY ROBERT J. CURRIEt The Airbus scandal has been a matter of fairly intense political interest since initial allegations of influence-peddling were made against several parties, including former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. 1 Of legal note, however, has been a challenge mounted by another party implicated by the Department of Justice's investigation into the matter, which has recently been pronounced upon by the Supreme Court of Canada. The Court's judgment in Schreiber v. Canada (Attorney General) 2 provides an interesting view of conflicting societal values: the Charter-guaranteed freedom from unreasonable search and seizure raised in opposition to the state's interest in efficient and unfettered means through which to combat crime with a transnational aspect. The Schreiber case is significant as an indicator both of the Court's evolving view of the limits of the application of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, 3 and of the Court's perception of the course being charted for Canada's participation in the fight against international crime.

  • Mulroney's Shadows: the Many Images of Canada's Eighteenth
    1 Mulroney’s Shadows: The Many Images of Canada’s Eighteenth Prime Minister A paper prepared for the annual meetings of the Canadian Political Science Association, University of British Columbia, June 2008 Jonathan Malloy Department of Political Science Carleton University [email protected] All politicians leave mixed legacies. But among Canadian politicians, Brian Mulroney may stand unique. Other leaders have left contradictory images - John A. MacDonald as the nation-building alcoholic, or Mackenzie King, the great compromiser who talked to spirits and his dog. Pierre Trudeau stands especially as a compelling and remarkable figure that defies easy summary. But perhaps no leader has left such a marvelously complex, contradictory and still- evolving legacy as Canada’s eighteenth prime minister - Brian Mulroney. The public legacy of Brian Mulroney is truly multifaceted. It spans ideologies and deeply intertwines his own person with his policy accomplishments. Mulroney pleases few and angers many, but for different and at times contradictory reasons. Mulroney has multiple images - among them are a harsh ideologue, a milquetoast pleaser, an obsession with polls, deep indifference to public opinion, a slick operator whose slickness was exposed continually, a statesman and possibly a crook. At the core of all this instability and multiple images is a complex personality and ego that continually surprises and disappoints. Only Pierre Trudeau comes close to offering the same complexities. Cohen and Granatstein wrote in Trudeau’s Shadow (1998) that “No other Canadian public figure has ever retained such power to move his country almoist fifteen years after leaving office. No one else in office either has ever had his power to galvanize opinion.

In the book, Mulroney opens up his darkest secrets and his innermost thoughts. In the interviews, he proclaimed himself the greatest Prime Minister since John A. Macdonald, and claimed that Pierre Trudeau opposed the Meech Lake Accord to try to destroy him. Mulroney claims that "Trudeau's contribution was not to build Canada but to destroy it, and I had to come in to save it." Mulroney describes his successor Kim Campbell as a "very vain person who blew the 1993 election because she was too busy screwing around with her Russian boyfriend" (Gregory Lekhtman), resulting in "the most incompetent campaign I've seen in my life." Campbell responded to the news by saying that Mulroney just wanted a "scapegoat who would bear the burden of his unpopularity". Mulroney's reaction. Via a spokesman, Mulroney said he was "devastated" and "betrayed" by Newman. He went further, saying "I was reckless in talking with Peter C.

  • The Overview: Four Models of Police-Government Relationships
    1 THE OVERVIEW: FOUR MODELS OF POLICE-GOVERNMENT RELATIONSHIPS By Kent Roach1 Abstract This chapter provides an introduction to police-governmental relations in Canada. It does so by outlining the law and history of police-government relations in Canada, constructing four different models of police-governmental relations and identifying critical issues that distinguish different approaches to police independence. The first part of the chapter examines the contested legal basis for claims of police independence from government with a focus on the Supreme Court of Canada’s pronouncements on this issue in R. v. Campbell and Shirose. The second part examines highlights of the history of police-government relationships. Controversies such as the Nicholson affair, the Airbus, Doug Small and Sponsorship Scandal cases are examined, as well as the contributions of the McDonald, Marshall and APEC inquiries to thinking about the proper relation between the police and the government. The third part of the chapter constructs four ideal models of police-government relations in order to highlight the range of value choice and policy options. The models are full police independence in which the police are immune from governmental intervention on a wide variety of matters including the policing of demonstrations. The second model is core or quasi-judicial police independence in which police independence is restricted to the process of criminal investigation. The third model of democratic policing similarly restricts police independence but places greater emphasis on the responsible Minister’s responsibility and control over policy matters in policing. The fourth model of governmental policing both minimizes the ambit of police independence and accepts the greater role of central agencies in co-ordinating governmental services including policing.

  • PAAC E-News, March, 2005

But when the homegrown Canadian show formally titled The Commission of Inquiry into the Sponsorship Program and Advertising Activities, with Mr. Justice John H. Gomery presiding, went the same route, it was anything but appropriate. The above thought crept across my mind as the addictive U.S. movie awards show plodded along. The Academy Awards are all about recognizing art in the rendering of artifice. But Gomery is supposed to get at the truth in matters pertaining to spoiled public trust in this country - yet there he was at one point, seemingly giving interviews and making quips about an inquiry over which he is supposed to preside with judicial reserve. There he was, offering the public observations that Chuck Guité was "a charming scamp" and that former PM and likely epicenter of the scandal, Jean Chrétien, was "small-town cheap" for passing out golf balls with his name on them. I don't know which was more discouraging - the knowledge that Gomery harboured such a cavalier opinion of the actions of Guité, a man involved with public accounts which have not been properly accounted for, or the mockery of what is suppose to be an impartial, unbiased hearing to seek out those who have undermined the public good.
