The following excerpt is from R. v. T.A.V., 2001 ABCA 316 (CanLII):
While there may be necessity to ensure that there is some credible basis for the information leading to suspicion (Debot v. The Queen (1989), 1989 CanLII 13 (SCC), 52 C.C.C. (3d) 193 (S.C.C.) (hereinafter Debot)), here there was evidence of articulable cause arising from the wiretap information passed on to Constables Spaans and Peever, as well as their observations at the bus depot.
