Manitoba, Canada


The following excerpt is from Fletcher v. The Government of Manitoba, 2018 MBQB 104 (CanLII):

The applicant’s position is that based upon the test outlined in Dunmore v. Ontario (Attorney General), 2001 SCC 94, [2001] 3 S.C.R. 1016, all he needs to demonstrate is (at para. 13): [T]hat such activities fall within the range of activities protected by s. 2(d) of the Charter, and . . . that the impugned legislation has, either in purpose or effect, interfered with these activities.
