Justice Arne Silverman: Human Smuggling

Human Smuggling Dept: The decision comes two weeks after Justice Arne Silverman struck down a section of Canada's human smuggling law, according to Winnipeg Free Press. However, Silverman temporarily suspended his decision on the human smuggling legislation, giving the Crown 30 days to take the case to the B.C. Appeal Court and vANCOUVER - A B.C. judge dismissed human smuggling charges Friday against four men accused of bringing dozens of Tamil migrants into Canada illegally aboard the MV Ocean Lady. Lawyers for the Crown and the defence agreed the B.C. Supreme Court judge should quash the charges after the earlier ruling that the law against human smuggling was unconstitutional.
