Emergencies Act Court Challenge by the Canadian Constitution Foundation

As you may already know, Christine Van Geyn, Litigation Coordinator for the Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF), took the federal government to court over their use of the Emergencies Act to end the Trucker Protest in Ottawa earlier this year.

Free Speech Win: F*CK TRUDEAU Flag Remains

When the town of Port Colborne ordered a resident identified only as "Melissa" to remove a "F*CK TRUDEAU" flag from her home in November 2021, she fought back. Every Canadian - even in this Charter-free era of COVID - has the right to express their political views. That right is not limited to speech that we find acceptable nor is it confined to government-approved … [Read more...]

Civil Forfeiture: Court of Appeal Calls Govt of Ontario Position "Absurd"

In Ontario (Attorney General) v. Norwood Estate, 2021 ONCA 493, Ontario's Attorney General argued for a vast expansion of the scope of Ontario's civil asset forfeiture scheme. In smacking down the province's Attorney General, Justice David M. Paciocco didn't mince his words. "Ontario’s interpretation [of s. 18.1 of the Civil Remedies Act] is illogical and incoherent." "In … [Read more...]

Motor City Madness: Are Detroit’s Civil Forfeiture Abuses Coming to Canada Next?

On February 4, 2020, The Institute for Justice filed a federal lawsuit against the City of Detroit, hoping to end the Motor City’s “seize and ransom” vehicle program. Detroit’s policing for profit scheme is very lucrative, as all money received through civil forfeiture goes directly to the police department responsible for the seizure. “Wayne County has seized more than … [Read more...]

Bruce Montague’s Response to Forfeiture Order

Published June 5, 2014 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act, Civil Forfeiture, Property Rights


By now you must all be aware of the ruling we received from the appeal court of Ontario a couple of days ago. I am not really surprised that we lost but I am surprised that they decided to increase my punishment by also stealing my ammunition. As bad as this ruling is, our lawyers at the CCF (Canadian Constitution Foundation) found some encouraging aspects to it. There are a … [Read more...]

You can choose what food you eat… IF the government approves

Published May 24, 2014 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: The Great Nanny State


You are not in control of your own body. In fact you're too stupid to know what food is right for you. Your so-called "healthy choices" are not government-approved; therefore you cannot eat what you want. So says the Ontario Court of Appeal in it's decision in R. v. Schmidt. [45] If there is an infringement of life, liberty and security of the person, the appellant must show … [Read more...]

You might remember the case of Marta & Lech Jaworski.  They’re the bed & breakfast owners in rural Ontario who let their son Peter use their property each summer for the past ten years to host a conference on freedom and liberty issues.
