Team Hipwell Scores a WIN. Landmark Decision by Federal Court.

In a landmark ruling released today Associate Chief Justice Gagne agreed with Team Hipwell that the Evidentiary Record before Cabinet that was used in deciding to enact the OIC 2020-298 ( regulation SOR/2020-96) be submitted to the Court for review. The Court closely followed the argument of Ed Burlew LL.B. and that of the other Applicants in deciding to review the Evidentiary Record before Cabinet.

A link to the decision and to the argument of Team Hipwell will be posted soon.

Can you explain what are the implications of this ruling? I kind of get it but I’d like short explanation in layman’s term.

The government has 30 days to show the court what they have with regards to the secret reasons they banned all of these firearms (and websites......) this last part was sarcasm

So how would donations be made without going through gofundme?

Does this mean the public gets to see the evidentiary record, or just in court?

Isn't the brand name of the receiver "ar15.com"? I thought it was a mistake on our part for thinking they banned a website.

From what I read (Somewhere?) it will be the judge that will review what they submit. Not likely to be public knowledge?

I still don't get it. So what? What if they don't have anything? What if they do? Do we honestly think this thing is going to be turned around based on what the government can or can't show us? Serious question. Will anything come of this or is it basically posturing on our behalf?

An excellent question to say the least...

 

[Mossberg590A1]

Yeah, unless there's some kind of meaningful end game to all of this - it's just spending money to keep the lawyers happy.

 

[KriskaCalgary]

Good news, but it's been 13 months and this is where we are. Keep in mind the amnesty ends in 11 months, and this doesn't tip the scales in our favour.

The election will happen long after the amnesty ends.

Elections are hereby canceled with 100% 'conservative' support.

This is what I believe to be the unfortunete truth at the moment.

 

[StoneHorse]

Look for a election this fall. This is an important win as it keeps the ball rolling. IMH layperson O.

I think it’s significant and it tarnishes the governments case.

The government will have to present the evidentiary record that resulted in them concluding that these rifles were not suitable for hunting or sporting purposes. Given that the AR-15 is the most prolific sport shooting rifle in existence by a massive margin, and countless testimonies and affidavits will confirm this, the "evidence" that they present will almost certainly be proven to be insufficient. That is why this is a big win.
