Her Majesty The Queen (Crim.)(B.C.)

Sheldon Goldberg and Jeff Ray, for the appellant.

 

 

James D. Bissell, Q.C. and Kimberly Prost, for the respondent.

 

M. Philip Tunley, for the intervener the A.G. of Ontario.

 

 

 

THE CHIEF JUSTICE (orally) -- This appeal comes to us as of right.  We agree with the Court of Appeal of British Columbia that the wording of the sections is open to interpretation and does not explicitly exclude a defence of due diligence.  We agree that given the penalties, this is not an offence that could, without offending the Charter, be one of absolute liability.

 

 

 

                On the presumption that Parliament intends its legislation to conform to the exigencies of the Charter, we are of the view that the section is one of strict liability and that a defence of due diligence is available to the accused.

LE JUGE EN CHEF (oralement) -- Ce pourvoi est formé de plein droit.  Nous sommes d'accord avec la Cour d'appel de la Colombie-Britannique pour dire que le texte des articles laisse place à interprétation et qu'il n'exclut pas explicitement le moyen de défense fondé sur la diligence raisonnable.  Nous convenons que, compte tenu des peines qui s'y rattachent, ce n'est pas une infraction qui pourrait, sans contrevenir à la Charte, être de responsabilité absolue.

 

                En tenant pour acquis que le Parlement veut que ses lois respectent les exigences de la Charte, nous sommes d'avis que l'article crée une infraction de responsabilité stricte et que l'accusé peut invoquer la diligence raisonnable comme moyen de défense.

Nature of the case:

 

Criminal law - Evidence - Pre-trial procedure - Impaired driving - Blood samples - Respondent served with a certificate of qualified technician the day preceding his trial - Can the Crown rely on the presumption in s. 258(1) (d) of the Criminal Code , R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46  that an accused's blood alcohol concentration at the time of driving is the same as at the time of testing where the accused has not received written notice within three months of the taking of the samples that a second blood sample exists for release to him for testing? - Whether the Crown can rely on the presumption in s. 258(1) (d) of the Criminal Code  where an accused has not requested that one of the blood samples be released to him within three months of its taking?

Nature de la cause:

 

Droit criminel - Preuve - Procédure préparatoire au procès - Conduite avec facultés affaiblies - Échantillons de sang - Le jour précédant son procès, l'intimé s'est vu signifier le certificat d'un technicien qualifié - Le ministère public peut‐il invoquer la présomption établie à l'al. 258(1) d) du Code criminel , L.R.C. (1985), ch. C‐46 , selon laquelle l'alcoolémie d'un accusé au moment où il conduisait correspond au résultat de l'analyse, si l'accusé n'a pas reçu un avis écrit dans les trois mois du prélèvement des échantillons l'avisant qu'un deuxième échantillon de sang peut lui être remis pour analyse? Le ministère public peut‐il invoquer la présomption établie à l'al. 258(1) d) du Code criminel  si, dans les trois mois du prélèvement, l'accusé n'a pas demandé que l'un des échantillons de sang lui soit remis?

Simon Buck, for the respondent.

 

 

 

 

LA FOREST J. (orally for the Court) -- The Court is ready to hand down judgment.  The judgment will be pronounced by Mr. Justice Sopinka.

 

SOPINKA J. -- This is an appeal as of right based on the dissenting reasons of Southin J.A.  The only issue before us is whether the majority of the Court of Appeal found an error of law which gave the Court of Appeal jurisdiction to allow the appeal.  In our opinion, the majority disagreed with the trial judge as to the weight of evidence.  We, therefore, agree with Southin J.A. that there was no question or error of law.

 

 

 

 

                The appeal is allowed and the conviction is restored.

LE JUGE LA FOREST (oralement au nom de la Cour) -- La Cour est prête à rendre jugement, lequel sera prononcé par le juge Sopinka.

 

 

LE JUGE SOPINKA -- Il s'agit en l'espèce d'un pourvoi de plein droit fondé sur les motifs dissidents du juge Southin de la Cour d'appel.  La seule question en litige devant nous est de savoir si la Cour d'appel, à la majorité, a constaté une erreur de droit qui lui accordait la compétence nécessaire pour accueillir l'appel.  À notre avis, la majorité n'en est pas venu à la même conclusion que le juge du procès quant au poids de la preuve.  Par conséquent, nous convenons avec le juge Southin qu'il n'y avait pas de point ou d'erreur de droit.

 

                Le pourvoi est accueilli et la déclaration de culpabilité est rétablie.
