    There is no point in passing a law, that cannot be enforced.

    That never stopped Harper’s government from doing it anyway.

    And in the process wasting the court’s time, and unfairly punishing people until those bad laws were eventually and inevitably nullified by the court.

      Exactly. Every time they’ve passed a law that violates the Charter, it eventually gets repealed. They’ve done this enough times that at this point, that it isn’t likely to pass at all if it isn’t compliant with the Charter. We’ve seen this over and over again, whenever they try and pass these types of laws. They fail before they ever get out in place now.
