StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto- Department of Justice
OTTAWA, June 27, 2011 – The Honourable Rob Nicholson, P.C., Q.C., M.P. for Niagara Falls, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada and the Honorable Pierre-Hugues Boisvenu, Senator, are pleased to announce that the Fair and Efficient Criminal Trials Act received Royal Assent yesterday, June 26. This new legislation will help ensure that so-called “mega-trials,” large and complex cases involving illegal activities such as drug trafficking, white-collar crime, terrorism, organized crime or gang–related activity, can be heard more swiftly and effectively.
“Our Government received a strong mandate from Canadians to make our streets and communities safer. We are very pleased that our mega-trials legislation has received Royal Assent,” stated Minister Nicholson. “This legislation will provide the tools needed to help streamline large, complicated cases, so there will be fewer delays, reduced risk of mistrials and decreased costs to taxpayers.”
The Fair and Efficient Criminal Trials Act will help improve Canada’s justice system through:stronger case management; reduced duplication of processes; and, improved criminal procedure. “Canadians want justice to be carried out in a timely way even when a trial is complex and wide-ranging” said Senator Boisvenu. “With this bill, our Government is delivering on what Canadians want and we will continue to tackle crime, stand up for victims and protect Canadians.” The bill will come into force on a date yet to be determined.
