As fucked up as all the shits the Cons. have done and we all have a list of things that are important to us personally that we feel strongly about. But this tid bit at the end makes me smile and happy to be Canadian.

Which is why this government’s most serious setbacks always seem to happen in court — a place which has little patience with sweeping statements and good intentions. Last year, minimum sentences were struck down, judges were in open revolt over mandatory victim fines, injunctions were granted against prohibitions on medicinal marijuana and heroin and the country’s top court declared Canada’s prostitution laws to be unconstitutional.

We like to say justice is blind. Maybe it is — but governments can’t afford to be.
Some folks in Countries not to far away ;);) aren't afforded the luxury of having courts look out for their best interests. At least we have that to be proud about :)
