Criminal defence lawyer in Edmonton, AB (not a fan of electronic dance music). He/him. Posts mostly about topics other than Canadian criminal law; should be treated as lacking any credibility whatsoever on such topics. Reskeet probably = endorsement.

“This ten year-old obviously didn’t give the Congressperson’s letter a sufficiently close reading, or he read it without an understanding of her record of holding educations systems to account. What a dumbass.”
This is maybe my favourite part. “I gotta say man, ten years old or not, you sound like a real fucking idiot. Follow me for more insights!”
This is a heading you never, ever want to see in a sentencing decision for your client (from R v Belanger, 2026 ABKB 362).
