Charkaoui V. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration) - Events Subsequent To The Decision

Events Subsequent To The Decision

On July 31, 2009 the Crown admitted there was insufficient evidence to uphold the security certificate against Mr. Charkaoui. This followed the Crown withdrawing much of its evidence in the face of Court orders for greater transparency. In response Justice Tremblay-Lamer presiding over the case issued a directive on August 5, 2009 saying she will consider whether she should quash the certificate or order the Ministers to revoke it themselves on her return from holidays, in early September.

On September 24, 2009 Justice Tremblay-Lamer announced she would lift all restrictions on Mr. Charkaoui by the end of the day.

Famous quotes containing the words events, subsequent and/or decision:

    All the events which make the annals of the nations are but the shadows of our private experiences.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Children of the same family, the same blood, with the same first associations and habits, have some means of enjoyment in their power, which no subsequent connections can supply; and it must be by a long and unnatural estrangement, by a divorce which no subsequent connection can justify, if such precious remains of the earliest attachments are ever entirely outlived.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    A good decision is based on knowledge and not on numbers.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
