Judges and the rule of law
Description
In this episode, Supreme Court of BC's Justice David Crossin shares with us his insights on the role of judges and the courts in protecting our rights and freedoms. He touches on how important it is for judges to be independent and impartial, and warns against governments overseas who continue to exercise arbitrary power when they attempt to undermine confidence in the judiciary or when they seek to control judges. He also talks about how the pandemic and new technologies have opened up access to the courts, and whether those changes could continue post-pandemic.
