An organization representing Saskatchewan lawyers cautioned Scott Moe against making "inflammatory" remarks regarding the justice system.
An association representing nearly 500 lawyers has issued a caution to Saskatchewan’s government, asking it to respect the role of the province’s judiciary.
Following the judge’s decision, Scott Moe said: “Our government is extremely dismayed by the judicial overreach of the court blocking implementation of the Parental Inclusion and Consent policy.”, and he’s vowed to take action to ensure the policy stands regardless of whether it violates certain sections of Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
The association’s statement sought to highlight how often the legal process unfolds “with not all pertinent facts initially presented before the Court on substantive issues.” “It is essential to uphold the spirit of judicial review, allowing for a meticulous examination of all relevant factors before arriving at a legal judgment.”The statement goes on to outline what it calls a “delicate balance” between the legislative and judicial branches of government upon which “our democracy is built.” Mutual respect and understanding between these institutions is “paramount,” the statement reads.
