A precedent has been setRegarding the incident reader Brian Perras wrote about (Citizen July 7): I find the dismissal by the Crown of a serious driving infraction (impaired driving) on the grounds stated, such as a late return of a turban to the accused, absolutely preposterous. A precedent has now been set that can be expanded as the need arises for perhaps robbery, rape or murder. This really is carrying our much heralded religious freedom way too far. People can believe all they want, if they have to, but our laws should never be trumped by the untimely return of headgear or anything else their religion decrees. This Justice who made that decision ought to be removed from the bench. Wulf Graunitz, Palgrave |
