Respectfully submitted,

Observations to the third report of the Standing Senate Committee on Banking, Trade and Commerce (Bill S-6)

While the committee supports the intent of Bill S-6, it believes that regulatory modernization of legislation must occur more quickly and on a much wider scale than what was proposed in the bill. Based on the testimony it heard, the committee suggests that the government consider the following measures in order to improve and accelerate federal regulatory modernization:

• introducing an economic and competitive lens for regulations;

• measuring the quantity and overall cost of regulations;

• setting targets for regulatory reduction that apply to all federal legislation, regulations and policies; and

• examining whether certain streamlined measures that were introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic should be continued.

As noted by this committee and other Senate committees involved in examining Bill S-6, a number of witnesses expressed their dissatisfaction with the limited or, in some cases, the lack of government consultations on the regulatory changes proposed in Bill S-6. Since extensive and inclusive consultations lead to better regulations by allowing the government to gather valuable expertise and feedback, the committee urges the government to improve its consultation process for the regulatory modernization by including more diverse stakeholders, using online consultations more frequently and reaching out to stakeholders sooner in its regulatory development process.

Lastly, given the complexity of the proposed changes and the importance of regulatory modernization, our committee and the other Senate committees felt that there was not enough time to properly examine the bill.

The Honourable Senator Wallin moved, seconded by the Honourable Senator Tannas, that the report be placed on the Orders of the Day for consideration at the next sitting.

The question being put on the motion, it was adopted.

(2) The Minister of Justice must, no later than five years after the day on which a review is initiated, cause a report on the review — including any findings or recommendations resulting from it — to be laid before each House of Parliament.

Your committee has also made certain observations, which are appended to this report.

Respectfully submitted,

Observations to the Sixth Report of the Standing Senate Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs (Bill S-4)

Delays in Criminal Proceedings

In 2017, this committee completed a lengthy study and tabled its final report, Delaying Justice is Denying Justice, which contained fifty recommendations that sought to address what it referred to as a “delays crisis” in criminal proceedings and to make the criminal justice system fairer and more efficient.

Several witnesses during the committee’s study of Bill S-4 stressed the continued importance of reducing delays in criminal proceedings, and urged the committee to undertake a follow-up study to build on its recommendations and address these ongoing challenges. In the words of Professor Cheryl Webster, the committee should “renew its efforts in reducing court delay that it so clearly took up in 2017. The need is even more urgent now.”

Professor Webster also pointed to statistics generated by Statistics Canada on court efficiency measures, and by the Ontario Court of Justice on criminal processing measures, which indicate that court delays have worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ensuring Fair Trials and Protecting the Legal Rights of Accused Persons

Many witnesses noted that remote appearances by audio or video conferencing can improve efficiency in the justice system and promote access to justice. Some noted however that these should only be used when appropriate and should not replace in-person proceedings when those would better ensure fair hearings and protect the legal rights of accused persons. Judges will retain the option to order in-person proceedings at any time.

Court Interpretation

Many witnesses noted that the use of virtual appearances could expand the ability to access interpreters across Canada who are not locally available during judicial proceedings. Access to interpretation is an essential element of ensuring procedural fairness and avoiding court delays. This being said, virtual interpretation should not replace in-person interpretation when the latter is necessary to ensure a fair trial. Witnesses emphasized the need for investment in technology and other resources to allow for effective simultaneous interpretation during virtual judicial proceedings and to ensure in-person interpretation remains available as needed.

The Legal Rights of Accused Persons in Custody

Some witnesses underscored the importance of protecting the legal rights of accused persons in custody during virtual proceedings, particularly how these apply to privacy, security, confidentiality, and the ability of an accused to confer with defence counsel. They raised concerns that these rights were not being sufficiently respected.

Investments in Technology and Facilities

The committee observes that in the context of increased use of remote appearances in criminal proceedings, fair and effective access to justice requires, on an urgent basis, investments in technology and appropriate facilities to ensure appropriate access to proceedings, particularly for participants in remote locations, vulnerable populations, and for those who are incarcerated.

Consent of accused

The committee notes that the purpose of Bill S-4 is to clarify and expand the law by establishing clear mechanisms for the use of technology in the courts, some of which were introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Emergency measures had to be adopted for the judicial process to continue to operate by electronic means, as in-person proceedings were not possible. These include the possibility of remote appearances by audio or video conference, the use of electronic or other automated means for the jury selection process, the participation of prospective jurors by video conference, the application and issuance of search warrants, authorizations, and orders by various means of telecommunication.

The committee recognizes that the use of technology has become part of the judicial system and will continue to be used in the administration of the judicial process.

Several witnesses expressed concern about the use of these measures. The committee is equally concerned about the decision to use such measures without studying their impact:

On the fundamental rights of individuals who have been charged or detained, marginalized individuals, victims, and witnesses;

On certain stages of criminal proceedings, including the presentation of evidence.

The committee considers that the choice of the accused to consent to the use of these measures must be the only factor that triggers their use.

The Honourable Senator Jaffer moved, seconded by the Honourable Senator Francis, that the report be placed on the Orders of the Day for consideration at the next sitting.

The question being put on the motion, it was adopted.
