Episode 428: Supreme Court’s “Goldson” Decision – Breath Tests, Due Process, and a Bus Heist

The Supreme Court of Canada has spoken — and it’s not the news we hoped for. This week on Driving Law, Kyla and Paul break down the SCC’s new decisions in Goldson and related cases on the admissibility of breath-test standards, why the “trust us, we’re government” approach undermines fair trials, and what Justice Côté’s dissent could mean for future constitutional challenges. And for the Ridiculous Driver of the Week: a man in Hamilton takes “take the bus” a little too literally — stealing a city bus and driving it safely along its route, picking up passengers along the way. Stream Episode 428 for the full discussion and all the legal fallout.
