MacKay stacking the courts!

Peter MacKay is stacking the courts with judges who want to put scumbags in jail.
Of course the Globe and Mail is claiming bias!

Justice Minister Peter MacKay chose eight prosecutors and no defence lawyers to be judges in his latest round of appointments this month, creating a growing imbalance on the federal bench.

Mr. MacKay has chosen 15 prosecutors since his last appointment of a lawyer whose main area is defence, which came in October, 2013, a government list of federal judicial appointments shows. He has appointed 88 new judges during that time...

MacKay leads list of Possible Successors …

Thinking ahead to who might be a possible successor to Prime Minister Harper when he does decide to step down, the poll tested eight prominent Tories – but one rose to the top of the list.

At this early juncture, one in three (35%) Tory voters would like to see Peter MacKay, presently Attorney General and Minister of Justice, take over the leadership of the Party when the time comes. Other notable Tories tested, but who are at this stage well behind, include Jim Prentice (17%), Tony Clement (12%), John Baird (12%), John Tory (10%), Jason Kenney (8%), Rona Ambrose (4%) and Christian Paradis (3%).

Prostitution hysteria!

 MacKay, a former Crown prosecutor, was expressing his concern and taking it as a given that we might not want to accept Marc Lepine’s justifications for what would become Canada’s worst mass murder. But remember the goal isn’t to have a serious discussion; the goal is to torque your opponent’s words so you can then attack his character.

Terrorism is a problem. So is crime.

MacKay understands that fundamentally the government is responsible for protecting the citizens. This includes terrorism and crime.

Federal Justice Minister Peter MacKay says Canadians are now more aware of the importance of security in this country.

“I think the events of a few weeks ago in Ottawa and St-Jean-sur-Richelieu were, frankly, a bit of a wake-up call for the fact that Canada is certainly not immune from terrorist attacks,” he said.

MacKay made the comment at the Halifax International Security Forum, an international security conference which runs this weekend in downtown Halifax.

Peter MacKay on Terror law in Canada

As the federal government weighs changes to anti-terrorism laws in the wake of last week’s fatal attacks on two Canadian Forces personnel, Justice Minister Peter McKay acknowledges there are already “robust” laws on the books.

"There are already some pretty robust measures that we can use — [sections of the Criminal Code] 83.3 and 810 do allow for the type of preventive … interventions — if I can use that word — for the police," he told reporters Wednesday morning before Conservative caucus.

Section 83.3 of the Criminal Code allows for preventive arrests, among other measures, when police “believe on reasonable grounds that a terrorist activity will be carried out.” Section 810 deals with peace bonds.

Question of 'thresholds'

On Monday, RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson suggested to a Senate committee that he would like to see the thresholds for the application of these sections to be lowered.

MacKay would only say his department is working...

Harper and MacKay

The Best PM we've ever had, sitting with the next best PM we'll ever have!

Hooker bill passed.

The government's controversial prostitution bill passed in the House of Commons Monday night by a 156-124 vote.

The Supreme Court last December ruled Canada's existing laws on the world's oldest profession were unconstitutional and ordered Parliament to come up with new legislation within a year.

Pot Legislation coming

MacKay met with Police Chief's and may change policy regarding pot. There's a big difference between the Shaggy's and Scooby's of Canada and the foreign Breaking Bad dealers out there.....

"The Criminal Code offences would still be available to police, but we would look at options that would give police the ability, much like the treatment of open liquor, that would allow police to ticket those types of offences," he said.

MacKay said he met with Vancouver's police chief, as well as several other chiefs, who "seem to be very favourably inclined." 

"So it is under serious consideration," he said.

MacKay said marijuana charges didn't necessarily eat up a lot of court time, during his run as a Crown prosecutor.

"But, there were certainly charges laid where small amounts of marijuana were involved, which I thought could have been expedited by way of a fine, fine option."
