  • Legally-Speaking

    Adam speaks with Michael Mulligan, Barrister & Solicitor, Mulligan Defence Lawyers.

    Michael discusses the Medicare Protection Act

    Some people are arguing it’s unconstitutional because they effectively prevent patients in British Columbia from accessing private medical treatment that would otherwise be available to them when the public system cannot provide timely necessary care.

    We also hear about a Flying Squad member being sentenced that was convicted of criminal contempt following a trial. What difference should the absence of a guilty plea make to the sentence?

    Michael also tells us about a sentence appeal for a person convicted of drug trafficking.

    Adam speaks with Sue Perrey, Zone 3 Director, Vancouver Island Real Estate Board (VIREB)

    The BC speculation and vacancy tax is being introduced to Duncan and the Cowichan Valley as a means of helping to deal with a low vacancy rate and record high home prices. Will this move help folks in the Cowichan Valley secure more affordable housing, or is it just an undue hardship on people who rent out a summer cabin?
