Details to come.
Omar Ha-Redeye spoke to Yves Fagay of CBA National Magazine social media in the courtroom:
Quebec’s courts recently banned Twitter. Ontario’s Superior Court has allowed it only for lawyers and journalists. Omar Ha Redeye explains the competing interests behind the confusion.
Omar Ha-Redeye explained the legal concepts of constructive dismissal and privileged communications on Newstalk 1010.
He discussed the recent case of Fernandes v. Marketforce Communications, where the use of a “Reply All” function on email resulted in an employee receiving a message intended for the lawyers where they were discussing her potential termination.
The employer considered this email privileged and sought to have it excluded, while the employee considered the email as constructive dismissal and sued as a result. In the motion to exclude the email, Justice Thomas A. Bielby upheld the decision of Mr. Justice Sproat to allow the employee to use the email because it would be unfair to the plaintiff to exclude it.

To the Justice Minister of Nova Scotia
Rehtaeh Parsons thought the worst outcome for her case would be no charges against the men who raped her but we all know better. The worst thing that could happen would be charges. That they would be found guilty, and that Rehtaeh would sit on a court bench and listen in utter disbelief as they were given parole, or a suspended sentence, or community service. All for completely destroying her life while they laughed.
Why is it they didn’t just think they would get away with it; they knew they would get away with it. They took photos of it. They posted it on their Facebook walls. They emailed it to God knows who. They shared it with the world as if it was a funny animation.
How is it possible for someone to leave a digital trail like that yet the RCMP don’t have evidence of a crime? What were they looking for if photos and bragging weren’t enough?
Why was this treated like a minor incident of bullying rather than a rape? Isn’t the production and distribution of child porn a crime in this country? Numerous people were emailed that photo. The police have that information (or at least they told us they did). When someone claims they were raped is it normal to wait months before talking to the accused?
You have the opportunity here to do something good and lets face it; the court system in Nova Scotia was just going to rape her all over again with indifference to her suffering and the damage this did to her.
My daughter wasn’t bullied to death, she was disappointed to death. Disappointed in people she thought she could trust, her school, and the police.
She was my daughter, but she was your daughter too.
For the love of God do something.
***I’ve been contacted from media outlets from all over the world and as a past member of the media I understand why you all want to speak with me. You have all been very courteous, professional, and respectful. Please know, however, this is the only statement I am able to make. I’m too devastated.***
I feel like I’m dead inside.
