The Supreme Court of Canada released its much-anticipated decision in
Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission v Whatcott today (they are all “much-anticipated” but this decision was on reserve for 16 months, a long time for the Supreme Court). The Court, in a unanimous 6-0 decision, held that the hate speech prohibition in the
Saskatchewan Human Rights Code was largely constitutional. We acted for an intervener on the appeal. Published on the
