Why are people talking about late disclosure of documents? What's the source for this? Everything I've read mentions that the judge cited the privileged documents the prosecution wanted back. With respect to disclosure

Quote:

The trial had been going on for six weeks and had been expected to continue through the fall.

Mascia rejected a defence motion in January to have the charges tossed because of the delay in getting them to trial under a Supreme Court of Canada ruling known as Jordan.

He then rejected a defence request over claims that the prosecution wasn’t disclosing evidence in a timely fashion.

Facts were as incriminating as you can imagine. Text messages with all the individuals colluding clear as day. Prosecutors still F'd it up. Wow. The most Canadian end to an insider trading scandal ever.

"Ooops, Suzie".

This judicial outcome is worse than fiction, as in Wild Things (1998)

Very tidy and quiet ending. Bet this doesn't even make headline news in Canada.

The facts are Baazov used some nice family connections in the Montreal area whom have tremendous influence worldwide and got a loan which had it gone sour would have hurt ordinary Joe's.

The crown by giving papers at the last minute (which in a normal trial would be deemed unfair) intentionally f'd up their case because in Canada a defendant must face his justice within a 2 year period. By doing this it guarantees that Baazov doesn't do anything stupid during his case like mention some names that don't want to be mentioned.

I swear 2 months ago I talked to my Dad about this and we both agreed that this was going to end just like this. Truly sickening.

Wow I sure hope Trump's tariffs on Aluminium and Steel didn't price you guys out of the tinfoil hat market. Or was that part of their evil plan too?

Didn't FTilt try to patent Rush before BFriday, and then even like started sending some filings against first sites that Copied it. Look it up. I think Wes also held enough AYA itself -for them to put him on board, I wonder how much he has in Stars Group now...

edit: Now Baaz gets $C, for suffering of his gentle soul ?

It all reads like pure speculation to me but the fact him n his dad decided two months ago that is what’s happening fills me with a bit more confidence
