Not On Record | EP#205 | Bill C-16 EXPOSED: This New Law Could End Fair Trials

Sponsored by EasyDNS https://easydns.com/NotOnRecord

In Not on Record Episode 205, criminal defence lawyer Joseph Neuberger and co-host Diana Davison take a deep dive into Bill C-16, the Protecting Victims Act, and explain why the proposed changes could have major consequences for Charter rights, sexual assault trials, domestic assault cases, Jordan delay applications, and the broader administration of justice in Canada.

This episode breaks down how Parliament’s proposed amendments could reshape the handling of unreasonable delay, restrict the availability of stays of proceedings, and expand procedural burdens in sexual offence proceedings. The discussion explores the new 60-day notice requirements for section 276 applications, the changing rules around section 278 records, the growing role of complainant participation, and the practical problems these reforms may create for defence counsel, judges, and accused persons alike. Joseph and Diana also examine the proposed lack of parity between the defence and the Crown when introducing sexual history evidence, the implications of the Kinnamore decision, and why the new framework may trigger fresh constitutional litigation in Canadian courts.

If you follow Canadian criminal law, false allegations, sexual assault law, criminal defence, court delay, Jordan applications, rape shield law, therapeutic records, or the erosion of due process in Canada, this episode is essential viewing.
