CCF to Appear at Supreme Court to Challenge Executive Overreach in Parliamentary Speech Case

The Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) mentioned Paul-Erik Veel and Amy Goudge as being representatives to the CCF at the Supreme Court of Canada in Alford v Canada, a case challenging the meaning of parliamentary privilege. The CCF will argue that Members of Parliament have a constitutional right to speak freely and the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians Act violates the Constitution by allowing the Executive branch to criminalize speech in Parliament.
