People who break health rules by holding parties that lead to death from COVID-19 should heed the warning from a British Columbia judge about facing a manslaughter charge, legal experts say.

Prof. Lisa Dufraimont of York University's Osgoode Hall law school said manslaughter charges stem from an unlawful act that causes death and a foreseeable activity that could cause bodily harm.

Gordon called the event "a crime, not a party," adding that it was something attended by people "foolish enough" to put their own and their grandmothers' health at risk. "I think it's technically possible that the Crown could substantiate a manslaughter charge but I think it's highly unlikely," Grant said.Grant said it would also be a "very difficult thing" to prove where a person contracted the virus.

Lenageeh Well then why can't the same charges be brought against Doug Ford and the minister of health? Due to their gross negligence and Mishandlings on numerous fronts including the privatization of LTC homes and the standards those homes have to live up to.

If this is true manslaughter charges could lead to charges to our representatives and the last guy and governors senators

How did his building allow this to happen?

How can you 100% prove without a doubt that is where a person got Covid from? People do have secret lives, you know.

Wow... because those 78 people didn’t know the risks either.... the world is going crazy..

But your not gonna bring up the fact that the people who go to these parties aren't responsible for themselves? Is everybody else's fault but the idiot that went to the parties?

So what about the Tabaco companies do you understand how dumb this is

This is a joke, we have clean needle programs To help junkies get their fix. And if they died of an overdose, Does the city or the government get charged with manslaughter? Of course not.

Ez4u2say_Janis GOOD!!!

Yes!

One party that needs charging is the UCP and jkenney for negligence and incompetence.

Doesn't one choose to go to a party knowing the risk? If you die because of your own ignorance then so be it. No one forced anyone to a party

Trudeau is screwed 😳😳😳😳😳🇨🇦🇨🇦

Will Costco/superstore/Walmart be held responsible too? This is insane! Wake up people.

How about deaths due to DerekSloanCPC

TownofInnisfail

Yes! I suggested class action against the creature since he did nothing to help Americans and repugnant republicans continue to be against helping Americans.

How are people ok with this? This a very slippery slope.

While everyone (vaccinated or not) still needs to adhere to the guidelines, this suggestion is a wrong one.

Great more fear tactics, socialism is working

And drug dealers will get the same penalty because someone overdosed on their drugs? Give me a break.

YES!!!

Yes please. Charge them

The fordnation Conservative Party should be charged and put on trial. People in congregate settings like LTC and high density areas are in considerably more danger of getting sick and dying. These were reasoned deliberate policy decisions.

Yeah okay.

Makes total sense. Hopefully it happens and it’s not an idle threat. StopTheSpread

Won’t stand the test.

Good

Just another us vs them tactic to divide us

And international flights with infected passengers? A vaccine procurement program that leads to Canadian deaths?

The Nazis really hate us having freedoms and fun, but every True Canadian will continue to fight back. Dictatorship does not belong in Canada!

There should be a new law put in place that, anyone holding parties or gatherings and a person in attendance contracts and dies from covid19, should face a manslaughter charge. Unfortunately people are NOT understanding how serious the pandemic is!

I agree. This is the case in India where the politicians themselves were instigators of mass rallies and allowed religious gatherings. Look at them now. Id like to see tougher punishments for those who just break isolation protocols, not only for those who causes death.

First in line should be the governments that refused to listen to their own public health officials!!

How many will say they were at a party ?

Experts? Lol get f*cked you crazy psychopaths. It's all about control.

What a load of horse manure..that’s commie state at its worst.

Good. Now do it.

It is like someone wants to kill so you are giving your head....how is this manslaughter...this is suicidal....CTV experts what a joke these days 🤦

Lol. Yeah.

Criminal negligence

That is bullshit. Vaccine distributors should get manslaughter for using people to harbour and spread variants

Could? Should!

well then I guess assisted suicide should be manslaughter & we should charge Justin Truedeau a& all MPs who support it with manslaughter then....

It's never a party! It's a private protest, cause that would be safer! Have everyone read and sign a covid questionnaire then an infrared temperature check so everyone can safely protest on!!!

No one forces people to attend these parties, they know the risks and don’t care. If they were held there against their will and forced to inhale covid germs then maybe, but this is not the case.

Cgood luck

That's the most insane and I suspect highly un-constititutional nonsense the MSM has ever tried to pump out

Covid parties = manslaughter. So, crowded work places, protests, buses, stores. I can see a problem coming out of this.

Good luck! First prove it was contracted AT the party (impossible). Second, prove any case positive party goers were aware they were positive at the time (very difficult). Lastly, prove any of them acted with intent while infected.... beyond a reasonable doubt. Good luck! Lol

So who ever organized the BLM protest get manslaughter as well

Ridiculous. Charging people for living their lives. A few years ago when Michael Jackson was wearing a face mask outside and everywhere people called him a kook and a nut bar. He was. Give that some thought.

If you can show that the people who attended the party were mindless dummies with no free will, I'll agree with you. People attend parties of their own volition. I'm not saying that the guy who held the party doesn't bear some responsibility, he does, but not manslaughter.

Oh for sure right..cuz those people were brought together against their will and obviously were intentionally exposed. With today’s politicians and left wing morons..no doubt they will try

They should of stayed home....simple as that !

So should the government officials be charged if someone dies from COVID after they visited a big box store? After all, the person was invited…

Shuddd uppp...

Great... so when do Ford & his ministers get picked up & will there be a full audit & investigation into the missing Covid relief funds?

You fukin sheep

Qasim was shown in his dream in 2015, that Muslims will be shaken heavily and will end up fighting one another, if they do not believe in the dreams. Many of Qasim’s dreams are now turning into reality for Pakistan & Middle East. Learn more at

Criminal negligence charges for all those that attended the party

How about death due to not taking your daughter to hospital when she needed it?

Fear porn , it’s what fake news media outlets do in this new fucked up world !

Good. They should.

Should be the law

Ford and Kenny are mass murderers then.

'Could'

Are we being threatened with this headline? And the MSM is participating in this threat? I have been able tolerate a number of govt affronts and unprincipled media coverage over the last 14 months - this is enough.

If you are attending parties during these times it seems to me to be more a case of suicide rather than manslaughter.

Having a huge party this weekend. Anyone welcome.

now do the for profit homes.

Funny story this! The governments and 'scientists' around the world who get BILLIONS of $ in grants have not been able to give the people a solution/cure! FIRST bring FRAUD and MANSLAUGHTER charges against them!

'Everyone is afraid': Indians make desperate rush for COVID-19 vaccines as death toll passes 200,000Outside hospitals, people lined up on trolleys, and in cars and cycle rickshaws, with loved ones holding oxygen cylinders for them as they waited for a bed… Bkmalegamwala Thinking about India at this very challenging time. 🙏 *official reported death toll. Let be real, there are thousands and thousands that have died in India fr COV19 that we will never know about Most Deaths are reported, India is not a failed state, ‘Covid’ deaths per million are nowhere near peaks in US and Europe (yet). But in the unlikely case that they get near or above, its still an irrational fear game played by media.
