Reasonable bail is a right guaranteed to all Canadians by our constitution… Only when release is opposed by the Crown is a bail hearing held… Since bail hearings take place shortly after arrest, and often before police investigations are complete, much that is said in a bail hearing later turns out to be false. Justices of the Peace on bail hearings have to work with limited and contradictory information; it is hardly surprising that errors are occasionally made.
