Back to High School (again‪)‬ The Docket

So, episode 107 - a new record.  But you know that right? Because you subscribe to the show and have already rated and reviewed the podcast - right? You should.

This episode we pay a virtual visit to Mrs. Darling's grade 11 Understanding Canadian Law class at Haliburton Highlands Secondary School to answer some really great legal questions. Is mental illness a valid defence? If you help plan a murder with someone and et in trouble even if you back out? Can you refuse a breathalyzer? What happens if a minor is caught drinking underage? 

All of the students’ questions were amazing. And we had a blast answering them!

But before we jump into the questions we take a quick look at the B.C Superior Court ruling on the double criminality question in the extradition case of Huawei executive Meng Wanzhou. Extradition is a complicated area of law, maybe so complicated that our politicians don’t fully understand it?

Remember, you can self-isolate in The Docket’s Discord chatroom. Join the Discord channel, take part in the ongoing chat, and listen to live recordings with this link: https://discord.gg/2TzUamZ

Also a huge thanks to my firm Abergel Goldstein & Partners who have not murdered me for editing the podcast at work!
