Justice
During question period on justice matters, a Conservative member asked whether the government would appeal a B.C. Supreme Court ruling that struck down the prohibition on possessing drugs for the purpose of trafficking, saying the deadline to appeal was approaching and that families wanted an answer; the member said the government had pointed to the Public Prosecution Service rather than giving a direct reply. Separately, a Liberal minister said the government disagreed with the Cowichan ruling and was appealing it, and that it would continue consulting with Indigenous communities and other groups during the appeal.Written by AI from the debate.
