Court Rules Breathalyzer Refusal Out
The Manitoba Court of Appeal ruled that the Canadian Bill of Rights does not grant a motorist the right to refuse a police breath sample. Chief Justice Samuel Freedman noted that statements to an officer on the street are not evidence under the bill, and breath analysis likewise does not violate it. The case began with a magistrate ruling allowing refusal. Frank McKay of Winnipeg was acquitted of refusing the test but convicted of impaired driving, and the matter was sent back for further action.
