Lawyers' Daily publishes a careful analysis of the recent decision [
Stillman v. Her Majesty the Queen, 2019 SCC 40] by the Supreme Court of Canada which concluded that the Canadian Parliament has validly enacted
section 130 (1) of the
National Defence Act by which a serious civil criminal offence is tried as as service office and, as a result, it qualified as "
an offence under military law", thereby engaging the military exception in section 11(f) of the
Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
