The Ontario Court of Appeal said in a 114-page decision released Friday that there’s a need for a higher threshold justifying a search of travellers’ phones, tablets and laptops, after concluding the current law violates the right to be free from unreasonable searches guaranteed by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Well, well. I'm glad that the courts in Canada have their head screwed on correctly.

Eh, questionable. There's probably 1 bad decision for every 3-4 good decisions.

And that's not including this whole bail / light sentencing fiasco. Nobody would be calling for mandatory minimums if courts were handing out maximums / near maximums of their own volition on a regular basis.
