Former chief justice Beverley McLachlin to step down from controversial Hong Kong court

McLachlin has faced pressure to resign from court over concerns about eroding freedoms in Hong Kong

Former chief justice of the Supreme Court of Canada Beverley McLachlin has announced her retirement from the controversial Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal.

McLachlin, 80, joined the court in 2018. She said she'll be stepping down from the bench to spend more time with her family when her term ends on July 29, 2024.

"It has been a privilege serving the people of Hong Kong," McLachlin said in a media statement. "I continue to have confidence in the members of the court, their independence and their determination to uphold the rule of law."

The court was established in July 1997 to replace the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in London as the highest appellate court in the former British colony, now a special administrative region of China.

The court can have up to 30 non-permanent judges at any one time. At present there are three non-permanent Hong Kong judges and 12 non-permanent common law judges, including McLachlin.

Since joining the court, McLachlin has faced numerous calls to step down over criticism of Hong Kong's controversial national security law, passed in 2020, and Article 23, passed earlier this year.

The 2020 national security law covered four areas of criminal activity: secession, subversion, terrorism and collusion with foreign or external forces. Those convicted of such crimes face maximum sentences of life imprisonment.

The law also allowed China to establish a national security agency in Hong Kong that is not under the jurisdiction of the Hong Kong government.

After it was passed, Australian judge James Spigelman resigned from the court for reasons he said were "related to the content of the national security legislation."

'The court is completely independent': McLachlin

Article 23 expanded the government's power to stamp out future challenges to its rule, allowing it to punish acts of treason or insurrection with sentences up to life imprisonment.

The law also included stiff prison terms for other offences, including up to 20 years for espionage and up to 10 years for the unlawful disclosure of state secrets.

McLachlin has pushed back against critics who accuse the court of propping up the government in Hong Kong and contributing to an erosion of basic human rights and declining judicial independence.

"The court is completely independent of the regime in Hong Kong." Former Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin says she is '100 % satisfied' that in her role as a non-permanent judge on Hong Kong's highest court, she is not "doing anything negative to prop up that regime."

"That's just when you need courts, when you have laws like this, when you have governments that might need checking," she told CBC News Network's Power & Politics in 2022.

"The court is completely independent and functioning in the way I am used to in Canada. The court is functioning. There's no governmental influence, and if there were I wouldn't be there."

McLachlin's announcement came just days after two former judges from the U.K., Lawrence Collins and Jonathan Sumption, resigned their seats on the bench.

The BBC reported last week that while Justice Collins said he was resigning "because of the political situation in Hong Kong," he added he continued to have "the fullest confidence in the court."

Later Monday, Sumption expressed a significantly different opinion of the court, telling the BBC that Hong Kong is "slowly becoming a totalitarian state" and judges are being compromised by an "impossible political environment created by China."

"The problem in Hong Kong has been building up over the last four years, and I think all the judges on the court feel concerned about this," Sumption told the BBC's Today program.

In 2022 British judges Robert Reed and Patrick Hodge stepped down from the bench.  

"I have concluded, in agreement with the government, that the judges of the Supreme Court cannot continue to sit in Hong Kong without appearing to endorse an administration which has departed from values of political freedom and freedom of expression,"Reed said after stepping down.

Elizabeth Truss, the British foreign secretary at the time, said it was "no longer tenable" to have Reed or Hodge on the Hong Kong court due to China's ongoing efforts to undermine "fundamental rights and freedoms" in Hong Kong.

'Church is definitely an essential service': Prince Albert pastor
fights $14K COVID-19 fine
Jayda Taylor
Published Thursday, December 31, 2020 2:23PM CST
PRINCE ALBERT -- The Prince Albert Full Gospel Outreach Centre is
heading to court to fight a $14,000 fine issued for violating COVID-19
public health orders.

A Saskatchewan Health Authority public health officer handed over the
ticket to Pastor Vern Temple in October. The fine was issued for
non-compliance to public health orders and places of worship
guidelines during a 100-day revival series.

The event was connected to 86 first and second generation COVID-19
cases in 17 different communities in the province.

Temple said COVID-19 restrictions show an inequity towards religious
organizations. He questioned why the government allows large groups of
people to shop at a liquor store, while religious services are limited
to 30. At the time of the fine, places of worship were allowed up to
150 people while following public health measures.

“I think the government is not seeing the significance and the
importance of the church,” said Temple.

"The church is definitely an essential service. (It’s) important not
just in the past, but even now with the pandemic happening and people
in isolation, it's even more important now."

Temple said the pandemic is hurting people’s spiritual health, not
just physical health. People don’t just go to health care facilities
to receive help, he said.

He said churches, along with all other religious organizations, should
be treated as essential, no different than grocery stores.

“I think my spiritual life is more important than my physical life.
You can’t live without food. A spiritual person will take the same
perspective that I really can’t do well in life and I may not even
live long without spiritual food.”

Calgary-based lawyer Sarah Miller will be representing the Full Gospel
Outreach Centre in court. She said the health authority has not
disclosed why the fine was issued and likely won’t before their first
court date scheduled for Mar. 8.

Miller said their defence will involve Charter rights to freedom of
religion and association.

“The outreach provides valuable community services for marginalized
and indigent people in Prince Albert. The voluntary payment that the
Saskatchewan Health Authority selected to fine the outreach is
$14,000. This is an incredible amount for the SHA to expect such an
organization to pay. Obviously the outreach has limited resources,”
she said in an emailed statement.

“On the information we have currently, it appears that the SHA has
overreached in this case and the fine does not appear to be an
appropriate or fair exercise of their authority.”

“It is believed that the Summons arose from a photo which was shared
online,” added Miller.

A photo posted on Facebook in September shows a group of people who
appear not to be appropriately physical distancing. Temple said
further into the series, they moved to a larger room to space people
out.

After the fine was announced, Premier Scott Moe tweeted “While this
fine is necessary, we don’t want people to be fined. We just want them
to follow public health guidelines.”

Temple said the church provides a sense of belonging, shelter and food
to people on the streets. When they were ordered to temporarily close,
he said it put a void in their lives.

“That was the disappointing thing, was that I could see transformation
taking place in these people’s lives,” said Temple.

“They were coming out every night, and a little bit more sober every
night and even coming completely sober for several nights … and then
it was just gone.”

Temple said the Full Gospel Outreach Centre has reopened, hosting
about three services a week. He said they’re following COVID-19
prevention measures, including physical distancing, wearing masks and
sanitizing.

>     “My understanding is that Pastor Coates would not go to prison,

> agrees to abide by health orders that violate his Charter freedoms of

> Pastor Coates has been in custody at the Edmonton Remand Centre since

> The Justice Centre filed an appeal in the Alberta Court of Queen’s
> Bench, to seek the release of Pastor Coates from jail prior to a trial
> date set for May 3-5, 2021, in Alberta Provincial Court in Stony
> Plain. The Justice Centre represents Pastor Coates and Grace Life
> Church, a large church just west of Edmonton. Alberta Health Services
> (AHS) ticketed Pastor Coates, taken Grace Life and Pastor Coates to
> court, and even attempted to completely shut the Church down.
> Background information on Pastor Coates’ ordeal is available here.
>
> “A trial set eight weeks down the road was too long for an innocent
> Pastor to be in jail. Pastor Coates is a peaceful Christian minister.
> He should never have been required to violate his conscience and
> effectively stop pastoring his church as a condition to be released.
> In every way this was a violation of Pastor Coates’ Charter rights and
> freedoms,” states lawyer John Carpay, president of the Justice Centre.
>
> “Charter freedoms do not disappear because the government declares
> regular church services to be outlawed while allowing hundreds of
> people to fill their local Walmarts,” notes Carpay.

>> Canadian
>>>>> Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen

>>>>> (now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal).  In that

>>>>> You are your brother’s keeper.

>>>>> or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
>>>>> me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime

>>>>> Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court
>> of
>>>>> Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;

>>>>> of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and,
>> retired
>>>>> Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
>>>>> Police.
>>>>>
>>>>> In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
>>>>> personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
>>>>> potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
>>>>> of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should

>>>> 30        That brings me then to consider the particular

>>>> the passage of time. Most arguments for disqualification rest on
>>>> circumstances that are either contemporaneous to the decision-making,
>>>> or that occurred within a short time prior to the decision-making.
>>>> 31        There are other factors that inform the issue. The Wilson

>>>> (emphasis added)
>>>>
>>>> [19]           Justice Webb had no involvement with any matter

>>>> clear during the hearing of this matter that the only reason for the

>>>> Webb hearing this appeal.
>>>>
>>>> [20]           Similarly in R. v. Bagot, 2000 MBCA 30, 145 Man. R.
>>>> (2d) 260, the Manitoba Court of Appeal found that there was no

>>>> the law firm that had been retained by the accused, had no
>> involvement
>>>> with the accused while he was a lawyer with that firm.
>>>>
>>>> [21]           In Del Zotto v. Minister of National Revenue, [2000] 4
>>>> F.C. 321, 257 N.R. 96, this court did find that there would be a
>>>> reasonable apprehension of bias where a judge, who while he was a

>>>> was before that judge. However, this case can be distinguished as
>>>> Justice Webb did not have any time recorded on any files involving
>> Mr.
>>>> Amos while he was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer or Patterson Law.
>>>>
>>>> [22]           Mr. Amos also included with his submissions a CD. He
>>>> stated in his affidavit dated June 26, 2017 that there is a “true

>>>> of an American police surveillance wiretap entitled 139” on this CD.

>>>> [24]           Mr. Amos alleged that Justice Near’s past professional

>> the
>>>> Claim. Justice Near sees no reason to recuse himself.
>>>>
>>>> [25]           Insofar as it is possible to glean the basis for Mr.
>>>> Amos’ allegations against Justice Gleason, it appears that he alleges
>>>> that she is incapable of hearing this appeal because he says he wrote
>>>> a letter to Brian Mulroney and Jean Chrétien in 2004. At th>> both

>>>>
>>>> III.               Issue
>>>>
>>>> [26]           The issue on the cross-appeal is as follows: Did the
>>>> Judge err in setting aside the Prothonotary’s Order striking the
>> Claim
>>>> in its entirety without leave to amend and in determining that Mr.
>>>> Amos’ allegation that the RCMP barred him from the New Brunswick
>>>> legislature in 2004 was capable of supporting a cause of action?
>>>>
>>>> IV.              Analysis
>>>>
>>>> A.                 Standard of Review
>>>>
>>>> [27]           Following the Judge’s decision to set aside the
>>>> Prothonotary’s Order, this Court revisited the standard of review to
>>>> be applied to discretionary decisions of prothonotaries and decisions
>>>> made by judges on appeals of prothonotaries’ decisions in Hospira
>>>> Healthcare Corp. v. Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, 2016 FCA 215,
>>>> 402 D.L.R. (4th) 497 [Hospira]. In Hospira, a five-member panel of
>>>> this Court replaced the Aqua-Gem standard of review with that
>>>> articulated in Housen v. Nikolaisen, 2002 SCC 33, [2002] 2 S.C.R. 235
>>>> [Housen]. As a result, it is no longer appropriate for the Federal
>>>> Court to conduct a de novo review of a discretionary order made by a
>>>> prothonotary in regard to questions vital to the final issue of the
>>>> case. Rather, a Federal Court judge can only intervene on appeal if
>>>> the prothonotary made an error of law or a palpable and overriding
>>>> error in determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and
>>>> law (Hospira at para. 79). Further, this Court can only interfere
>> with
>>>> a Federal Court judge’s review of a prothonotary’s discretionary
>> order
>>>> if the judge made an error of law or palpable and overriding error in
>>>> determining a question of fact or question of mixed fact and law
>>>> (Hospira at paras. 82-83).
>>>>
>>>> [28]           In the case at bar, the Judge substituted his own
>>>> assessment of Mr. Amos’ Claim for that of the Prothonotary. This
>> Court
>>>> must look to the Prothonotary’s Order to determine whether the Judge
>>>> erred in law or made a palpable and overriding error in choosing to
>>>> interfere.
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> B.                 Did the Judge err in interfering with the
>>>> Prothonotary’s Order?
>>>>
>>>> [29]           The Prothontoary’s Order accepted the following
>>>> paragraphs from the Crown’s submissions as the basis for striking the
>>>> Claim in its entirety without leave to amend:
>>>>
>>>> 17.       Within the 96 paragraph Statement of Claim, the Plaintiff
>>>> addresses his complaint in paragraphs 14-24, inclusive. All but four
>>>> of those paragraphs are dedicated to an incident that occurred in
>> 2006
>>>> in and around the legislature in New Brunswick. The jurisdiction of
>>>> the Federal Court does not extend to Her Majesty the Queen in right
>> of
>>>> the Provinces. In any event, the Plaintiff hasn’t named the Province
>>>> or provincial actors as parties to this action. The incident alleged
>>>> does not give rise to a justiciable cause of action in this Court.
>>>> (…)
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> 21.       The few paragraphs that directly address the Defendant
>>>> provide no details as to the individuals involved or the location of
>>>> the alleged incidents or other details sufficient to allow the
>>>> Defendant to respond. As a result, it is difficult or impossible to

>>>> A generous reading of the Statement of Claim allows the Defendant to
>>>> only speculate as to the true and/or int>> best, the Plaintiff’s action
>>>> may possibly be summarized as: he
>>>> suspects he is barred from the House of Commons.
>>>> [footnotes omitted].
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> [30]           The Judge determined that he could not strike the
>> Claim
>>>> on the same jurisdictional basis as the Prothonotary. The Judge noted
>>>> that the Federal Court has jurisdiction over claims based on the
>>>> liability of Federal Crown servants like the RCMP and that the actors
>>>> who barred Mr. Amos from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004
>>>> included the RCMP (Federal Court Judgment at para. 23). In

>>>> the viability of these allegations de novo, the Judge identified
>>>> paragraph 14 of the Claim as containing “some precision” as it

>>>> Aide-de-Camp to the Lieutenant Governor (Federal Court Judgment at
>>>> para. 27).
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> [31]           The Judge noted that the 2004 event could support a

>>>> identified the elements of the tort as excerpted from Meigs v.
>> Canada,
>>>> 2013 FC 389, 431 F.T.R. 111:

>>>>
>>>> [13]      As in both the cases of Odhavji Estate v Woodhouse, 2003
>> SCC
>>>> 69 [Odhavji] and Lewis v Canada, 2012 FC 1514 [Lewis], I must
>>>> determine whether the plaintiffs’ statement of claim pleads each
>>>> element of the alleged tort of misfeasance in public office:
>>>>
>>>> a) The public officer must have engaged in deliberate and unlawful
>>>> conduct in his or her capacity as public officer;
>>>>
>>>> b) The public officer must have been aware both that his or her
>>>> conduct was unlawful and that it was likely to harm the plaintiff;
>> and
>>>>
>>>> c) There must be an element of bad faith or dishonesty by the public
>>>> officer and knowledge of harm alone is insufficient to conclude that
>> a
>>>> public officer acted in bad faith or dishonestly.
>>>> Odhavji, above, at paras 23, 24 and 28
>>>> (Federal Court Judgment at para. 28).
>>>>
>>>> [32]           The Judge determined that Mr. Amos disclosed
>> sufficient
>>>> material facts to meet the elements of the tort of misfeasance in
>>>> public office because the actors, who barred him from the New
>>>> Brunswick legislature in 2004, including the RCMP, did so for

>>>> [33]           This Court’s discussion of the sufficiency of
>> pleadings
>>>> in Merchant Law Group v. Canada (Revenue Agency), 2010 FCA 184, 321
>>>> D.L.R (4th) 301 is particularly apt:
>>>>
>>>> …When pleading bad faith or abuse of power, it is not enough to
>>>> assert, baldly, conclusory phrases such as “deliberately or
>>>> negligently,” “callous disregard,” or “by fraud and theft did steal”.
>>>> “The bare assertion of a conclusion upon which the court is called
>>>> upon to pronounce is not an allegation of material fact”. Making
>> bald,
>>>> conclusory allegations without any evidentiary foundation is an abuse
>>>> of process…
>>>>
>>>> To this, I would add that the tort of misfeasance in public office
>>>> requires a particular state of mind of a public officer in carrying
>>>> out the impunged action, i.e., deliberate conduct which the public
>>>> officer knows to be inconsistent with the obligations of his or her
>>>> office. For this tort, particularization of the allegations is
>>>> mandatory. Rule 181 specifically requires particularization of
>>>> allegations of “breach of trust,” “wilful default,” “state of mind of
>>>> a person,” “malice” or “fraudulent intention.”
>>>> (at paras. 34-35, citations omitted).
>>>>
>>>> [34]           Applying the Housen standard of review to the
>>>> Prothonotary’s Order, we are of the view that the Judge interfered
>>>> absent a legal or palpable and overriding error.
>>>>
>>>> [35]           The Prothonotary determined that Mr. Amos’ Claim
>>>> disclosed no reasonable claim and was fundamentally vexatious on the
>>>> basis of jurisdictional concerns and the absence of material facts to
>>>> ground a cause of action. Paragraph 14 of the Claim, which addresses
>>>> the 2004 event, pleads no material facts as to how the R>> engaged in
>>>> deliberate and unlawful conduct, knew that his or her
>>>> conduct was unlawful and likely to harm Mr. Amos, and acted in bad

>>>> the New Brunswick legislature for political and/or malicious reasons,
>>>> these allegations are not particularized and are directed against
>>>> non-federal actors, such as the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Legislative
>>>> Assembly of New Brunswick and the Fredericton Police Force. As such,
>>>> the Judge erred in determining that Mr. Amos’ allegation that the
>> RCMP
>>>> barred him from the New Brunswick legislature in 2004 was capable of

>>>>
>>>> [36]           In our view, the Claim is made up entirely of bare
