Canada’s top court strikes down anti-terror measures – theRawStory – AFP, Fri Feb 23, 2007
Canada’s high court on Friday quashed extraordinary security detentions of foreigners suspected of terror ties without charges for many years, saying they breach civil rights.
Lawyers for three men with alleged terror links asked the Supreme Court of Canada in June 2006 to review the so-called security certificates. They were backed by 11 civil rights groups.
