Costs imposed for missing phone calls from the courthouse-During COVID19, costs imposed on self represented litigants who miss remote or virtual hearings is on the rise. If you have a court hearing on an appointed day, please check in advance and provide your phone number so that costs are not imposed as there is a considerable backlog in matters and courts want to move forward with matters. Having received phone calls from perplexed litigants voicing this frustration in ABQB matters, thought I'd share. #COVID19, #COVIDcourtinformation, #guidanceforselfreps

This is valuable information for informational purposes only. Does not constitute legal advice. A judicial review to the Federal Court lies for a review of penalties and interests on the arrears but rarely have actual arrears been referred for a judicial review at the Federal Court of Canada. Appropriate action on the actual arrears lie with the Tax Court of Canada in most cases. Again, this is for informational purposes and not a broad sweep on matters which are decided on a case by case scenario on merit. https://taxpage.com/article/tax-audit-vs-tax-investigation/

Reference re Genetic Non-Discrimination Act , 2020 SCC 17 July 10, 2020-CONSTITUTIONALITY TEST In 2017, Parliament enacted the Genetic NonDiscrimination Act . Section 2 of the Act defines a genetic test as a test that analyzes DNA, RNA or chromosomes for purposes such as the prediction of disease or vertical transmission risks, or monitoring, diagnosis or prognosis. Sections 3 , 4 and 5 establish prohibitions relating to genetic tests: individuals and corporations cannot... force individuals to take genetic tests or disclose genetic test results as a condition of obtaining access to goods, services and contracts; cannot refuse an individual access to goods, services and contracts because they have refused to take a genetic test or refused to disclose the results of a genetic test; and cannot use individuals’ genetic test results without their written consent in the areas of contracting and the provision of goods and services. Section 6 provides that the prohibitions established by ss. 3 to 5 do not apply to a physician, pharmacist or other health care practitioner, or to a person conducting research in certain respects. Section 7 provides that doing anything prohibited by ss. 3 , 4 or 5 is an offence punishable on summary conviction or by indictment. Section 8 of the Act amended the Canada Labour Code to protect employees from forced genetic testing or disclosure of test results, and from disciplinary action on the basis of genetic test results, and ss. 9 to 11 of the Act amended the Canadian Human Rights Act to add genetic characteristics as a prohibited ground of discrimination and to create a deeming provision relating to refusal to undergo genetic testing or disclose test results. The Government of Quebec referred the constitutionality of ss. 1 to 7 of the Act to the Quebec Court of Appeal, asking whether these provisions were ultra vires to the jurisdiction of Parliament over criminal law under s. 91(27) of the Constitution Act, 1867 . The Court of Appeal answered the reference question in the affirmative, concluding that ss. 1 to 7 of the Act exceeded Parliament’s authority over criminal law. The Canadian Coalition for Genetic Fairness, which had intervened in the Court of Appeal, appeals to the Court as of right. Held (Wagner C.J. and Brown, Rowe and Kasirer JJ. dissenting): The appeal should be allowed and the reference question answered in the negative.

Did you know that most refugee claimants can get work permit? Question is When? During the pendency of their refugee claims in the Refugee Protection Division of the Immigration and Refugee Board. What do they need to prove?... Inability to sustain or support themselves.Include proof of the same e.g if applied for welfare etc. Medical examinations must be completed and proof of the same submitted. . What about claimants from designated country of origin? Such claimants inelgible for work permits until either their refugee claim is accepted or 180 days have passed since their claim was referred to the Immigration and Refugee Board. Can ineligible claimants or those whose claims have been unsuccessful apply for work permits? If a claimant has been ordered removed, but Canada Border Services Agency cannot enforce the order, then only. Sometimes Canada Border Services Agency is not able to remove people because they are not able to get travel documents or because there is no country that will admit them. Hence during such wait period this application can be made. Call or inbox if you want to make such an application for yourself or someone you know.
