Abstract
The omnibus criminal law reforms brought about by Bill C-75 continue to cause interpretive dilemmas for courts, adding to the impression that the Bill was enacted too hastily. The lack of transitional provisions relating to the jury change rules, for example, left trial and appeal courts scrambling to find solutions. In this case, it is the changes to the rules around preliminary inquiries leading to the confusion.
