Letter to the Premier to not use the notwithstanding clause

View descriptionShare

450 members of Ontario's legal community wrote to Premier Doug Ford, denouncing his proposal to use the notwithstanding clause to strip constitutional rights from vulnerable groups, including those experiencing homelessness, mental health challenges, and substance use issues. The letter emphasizes the gravity of this proposal, calling it a misuse of the notwithstanding clause that undermines the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the fundamental principles of Canada’s constitutional democracy. The proposal raises critical questions about accountability, judicial independence, and the protection of vulnerable populations.
