Description
Everyone’s talking about crime and bail, but almost no one is talking about who actually controls the judges making those decisions.
Here’s the part most people miss: in Canada, provinces run the justice system… but the federal government appoints the most powerful judges in provincial courts.
Now premiers are pushing back. They want a say in who gets appointed, especially chief justices, who can shape how entire courts operate.
This isn’t about the Supreme Court.
It’s about control behind the scenes,and whether Ottawa has too much influence over provincial justice.
