This sounds like a dangerous precedent....
It sure like he committed a crime....
The Supreme Court of Canada has tightened the legal definition of breach of trust, making it potentially harder to obtain criminal convictions against politicians or public servants charged with corrupt conduct.
In a 7-0 ruling, the court overturned a previous guilty verdict against Denis Boulanger, the police chief of Varennes, Que.
He was charged after asking a subordinate to write a traffic accident report that helped clear his daughter of blame for insurance purposes.
The court said Mr. Boulanger's actions and intentions were not serious enough to merit a conviction.
It is the first time the Supreme Court has laid down a detailed definition of breach of trust under Criminal Code provisions that have been on the books since 1893.

The Supreme Court doesn't even believe in the Law anymore, it's no wonder Native thugs are getting away with beating up people and vandalism, they know they can get away with it.
A Liberal Supreme Court is ruining Canada, just like the Liberal Lying Premier of Ontario is destroying what little rights Canadians had to their own homes.
