278's do NOT allow records simply be handed over as a whole. A judge reviews them 1st to see if they are relevant. Eg. If the complainant gave a different narrative of the assault to the therapist than they did to the police. That is considered relevant.

SCOOP: A YEG neighbourhood suffered >155 community member deaths in 3 months, coinciding w/ mass displacement of encampment dwellers.
During this time, a demolition permit was granted for the former Boyle Street drop-in.
Is a land grab driving mass death?

Going to shout out more good work here from chris wiebe 🌲🌲🌲 (he/him) - everyone on law Twitter should have him on their radar as one to watch for important social justice litigation.
