Constitutional Rights Centre: Both Galati, who successfully challenged the Harper governments appointment of Marc Nadon to the Supreme Court of Canada, and the Constitutional Rights Centre, which does pro bono constitutional litigation, say the Conservative cabinet should refer Bill C-24 to the high court for an opinion on its constitutionality, according to The Star. Related: As the clock ticks down to the passage of controversial changes to Canadas citizenship law, a group led by Toronto lawyer Rocco Galati is warning MPs, senators and even the governor general that it will immediately challenge the bill as unconstitutional. Galati, however, doesnt expect that to happen, and he sent two letters Monday warning lawmakers that if they pass the bill they may, by exposing Canadian-born citizens to removal to countries that practise torture, find themselves complicit in crimes against humanity.
