It’s pretty amazing when you think about it.
In my system it is extremely rare for a judge to found scamming the system. They’re also very wary of having a ruling vacated because they didn’t follow our Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Being appointed also negates them being bought off through donations to an election campaign. And most (if not all) Canadian judges set aside their personal politics to rule as unbiased as possible. The very few who don’t often end up censured … and that doesn’t bode well for their judicial futures.
Then you need proof. Otherwise you’re just guessing.
Unless ofc the one being murdered is a murderer themselves … and many Americans who’ve dealt with privalized health care can attest to that being true.
There would be some serious Karen pearl-clutching if that happened.
So they may not be wrong then.
Your prosecutors are elected too I believe. Which means if they can “look hard on crime” for the next election cycle it can give them a better chance at winning.
In Canada we don’t have half the elections you do. Neither police chiefs, prosecutors or judges are elected … here they are appointed, which imo is a better system.
Then show your proof they’re wrong.
America’s worst nightmare may actually be true.

What a cunt thing to do. Trust fElon to be the one to do it.
Or with non-pale skin tones?
As a Canadian I can’t understand how prosecutors continue to bang their guilty drums when DNA evidence exonerates someone. And it happens almost every time.
Like do they just prefer lies over truth?
Half of America would be partying in the streets if it’s found he was illegally searched and all that fruit of the poison tree ends up in the garbage.
6·13 hours agoExcept in the good ol’ days just about everything on the 'net benefited most of us in some way … and it was free. Now it sure as hell ain’t free and it’s been co-opted to benefit billionaires only.
I started torrenting 23 years ago and it was easy. Just a client, no VPN required. Now I need not only a VPN, but a good router that I can flash with firmware, hours of working out how best to set up the router with wireguard etc, then scroll through dozens of links to try and find a stable stream to watch hockey.
It’s fucking exhausting.
We give them no money, land or resources. We are not beholden to them to fight their wars or be involved in their treaties and our “Canadian Oath of Allegiance is a promise or declaration of fealty to the Canadian monarch—as personification of the Canadian state and its authority, rather than as an individual person”.

We owe them nothing.
In name only. Canada is neither beholden or attached to Britain except by tradition,. Same as Australia, the Bahamas, Cameroon and 53 other nation states.
The Commonwealth of Nations, often simply referred to as the Commonwealth is an international association of 56 member states, the vast majority of which are former territories of the British Empire from which it developed. They are connected through their use of the English language and historical-cultural ties. The chief institutions of the organisation are the Commonwealth Secretariat, which focuses on intergovernmental relations, and the Commonwealth Foundation, which focuses on non-governmental relations between member nations. Numerous organisations are associated with and operate within the Commonwealth. It is known colloquially as the British Commonwealth.
