Human rights lawyer files complaints after P I hired to tail Manitoba chief justice

  WINNIPEG Complaints have been filed and probes are underway after a private investigator was hired to tail a Manitoba judge. On Monday, Court of Queen’s Bench Chief Justice Glenn Joyal revealed he’d been followed from the law courts to his home by a private investigator trying to catch him breaking public health orders. The firm doing the surveillance was hired by the Alberta-based Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms – the group representing seven Manitoba churches who are challenging the province’s public health orders. Joyal is presiding over the case. Ottawa-based human rights lawyer Richard Warman has filed complaints with the Manitoba and Alberta law societies, calling on them to investigate three lawyers involved in the case.

Responsibility for court worker program shifting to Indigenous organizations

“We understand that when these supports are offered at the earliest point possible it provides the greatest potential for connection to restorative justice programming,” said Manitoba Justice Minister Cameron Friesen at a June 29 announcement. “It helps [accused persons] understand what happens when they are charged and explains what they might go through as they move through the courts.” A cost-shared agreement between Manitoba and the federal government will provide a total of about $1 million in grants to Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimanakak (MKO), the Southern Chiefs’ Organization, the Manitoba Metis Federation (MMF) and the Island Lake Tribal Council for each of the next two years, slightly more than what the province has spent on the program over the past few years. Friesen said this is the model in other Canadian jurisdictions and that the government no plans to reclaim the programs at the end of the current funding cycle.
