A statement of claim filed in the Federal Court of Canada alleges the plaintiffs have been denied justice by the government adhering to strict time limits on criminal proceedings set by a landmark 2016 Supreme Court ruling.

The Jordan ruling imposed “a presumptive ceiling” of 18 months between charge and the actual or anticipated end of a trial in provincial court, and 30 months in superior courts.

The plaintiffs are calling for the government to expedite the resourcing of courts across the country and commit to criminal justice reforms.
