The Crown has the duty to SHOW CAUSE why an accused should be denied bail.If the investigating officer has not done his/her homework the bail will be granted.
Trying to stop and check every person at the border is not going to happen.
A bail enforcement unit is great but Mr Lilley makes a fool of himself when he states a knock on the door of a bailed person results in an arrest because he is not there.You will not be arresting a suspect who is not there.
The pleading down of gun charges cannot take place without the consent of the Crown attorney.IF they have a strong case the charges should not be plead down.You then have to ask why they do not have a strong case.Rookie investigator,firearm not being tested and proven to be a firearm (happens all the time).Proving possession is difficult and then the grounds for a stop even more difficult........
