Supreme Court of Canada passes up chance to explain "rule of law"

It was probably a non-starter anyway. But they could have reduced the Ontario Court of Appeal decision to talking points for the Attorney-General:
  • Canada has laws.
  • Pakistan has laws but they don't matter.
  • The United States has laws but they don't matter either.
  • Canada can't ignore its own laws.
  • Canada can't ignore its own laws, even if Americans don't know why.
  • Canada can't ignore its own laws, even if Conservatives don't know why.
  • Canada can't ignore its own laws, even if Conservatives have a majority.
