Les implications constitutionnelles sont urgentes. Ni les citoyens ni les organismes de surveillance de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 civile comme l&#039;Association canadienne des libert\u00e9s civiles ni le cinqui\u00e8me pouvoir, et encore moins les autres gouvernements canadiens, ne peuvent \u00e9valuer ad\u00e9quatement les d\u00e9clarations publiques des ministres f\u00e9d\u00e9raux de la Couronne au sujet des \u00ab\u00a0ordonnances\u00a0\u00bb f\u00e9d\u00e9rales sans divulgation de ces ordonnances.

Un communiqu\u00e9 de presse contenant l&#039;interpr\u00e9tation ou l&#039;explication de l&#039;arr\u00eat\u00e9 par le ministre ne suffira pas. Je n&#039;accuse pas le pouvoir ex\u00e9cutif de supprimer intentionnellement la publication de ces ordonnances. Mais le d\u00e9lai de plusieurs jours entre la signature du d\u00e9cret par le Cabinet et sa publication sur le site Web du d\u00e9cret n&#039;est pas tenable.<\/p>\n<p>Au moment o\u00f9 j&#039;\u00e9cris, 24 heures se sont \u00e9coul\u00e9es depuis que le gouvernement a annonc\u00e9 ses ordonnances de quarantaine obligatoire sans pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent, conform\u00e9ment \u00e0 une ordonnance du Cabinet que personne d&#039;autre que vous ne peut voir. Pourtant, cela nous impacte tous. Les lois f\u00e9d\u00e9rales sur la quarantaine soumettent les Canadiens \u00e0 une assignation \u00e0 r\u00e9sidence, sans audience. Un ordre aussi s\u00e9rieux m\u00e9rite une transparence s\u00e9rieuse.<\/p>\n<p>Si quelqu&#039;un cherchait \u00e0 obtenir un contr\u00f4le judiciaire de l&#039;ordonnance ou \u00e0 d\u00e9poser une demande d&#039;habeas corpus, il faudrait actuellement attendre plusieurs jours avant de pouvoir simplement la lire. Si le gouvernement peut prendre le temps de pr\u00e9parer un plan de communication, il peut prendre le temps de publier l&#039;ordonnance.<\/p>\n<p>Ma propre exp\u00e9rience en Ontario en tant que 35e procureur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral m&#039;a laiss\u00e9 supposer que le retard peut \u00eatre caus\u00e9 par la Couronne ou le souverain : \u00e0 savoir, (a) retard du Conseil priv\u00e9 dans la publication des d\u00e9crets du gouverneur en conseil (retard de la Couronne); ou (b) d\u00e9lai entre les d\u00e9cisions du Conseil ex\u00e9cutif et l&#039;approbation officielle du gouverneur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral, rendant les d\u00e9crets du gouverneur en conseil (D\u00e9lai souverain).<\/p>\n<p>Bien que le gouverneur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral se soit retir\u00e9 \u00e0 juste titre des r\u00e9unions du Conseil ex\u00e9cutif, permettant un syst\u00e8me de gouvernement du Cabinet au cours des 150 derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es, je sais que les provinces ont g\u00e9r\u00e9 leurs d\u00e9crets d&#039;une mani\u00e8re qui permet la publication en temps opportun de ses d\u00e9crets. Le lieutenant-gouverneur ou la personne d\u00e9sign\u00e9e est mis \u00e0 disposition pour approbation officielle dans les proc\u00e8s-verbaux des d\u00e9cisions du Cabinet. Cette commande accompagne souvent tout dossier de communication mis en ligne ou diffus\u00e9 dans les m\u00e9dias.<\/p>\n<p>En l&#039;absence d&#039;un changement \u00e0 vos processus pour r\u00e9pondre \u00e0 cette demande, une solution pourrait \u00eatre que le Conseil priv\u00e9 publie des d\u00e9crets non officiels ou des projets de d\u00e9crets en utilisant n&#039;importe quelle nomenclature et combinaisons de mise en garde : c&#039;est-\u00e0-dire, publier ces d\u00e9crets apr\u00e8s approbation par le Cabinet, avant le gouverneur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral. En tant que tel, le pouvoir ex\u00e9cutif fonctionnerait de la m\u00eame mani\u00e8re que le pouvoir l\u00e9gislatif, dans lequel les projets de loi sont publi\u00e9s en ligne pendant et apr\u00e8s les travaux du Parlement, mais avant la sanction royale (bien que le retard d&#039;hier dans la divulgation publique du projet de loi en question ait \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 compens\u00e9 par un retard inacceptable, normalement tout est pr\u00eat pour une diffusion publique apr\u00e8s le passage de la premi\u00e8re lecture). Je reconnais les principes constitutionnels limitant la divulgation publique des d\u00e9crets avant leur examen par le Cabinet, il n&#039;y a aucune bonne raison pour que ces d\u00e9crets soient gard\u00e9s secrets apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 approuv\u00e9s par le Cabinet, mais avant la sanction formelle du Gouverneur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral.<\/p>\n<p>Cela est particuli\u00e8rement vrai compte tenu de la situation inhabituelle dans laquelle nous nous trouvons aujourd&#039;hui. La Couronne prononce la loi au public par le biais de s\u00e9ances d&#039;information quotidiennes, permettant toute forme d&#039;interpr\u00e9tation par les ministres, sans que le public puisse v\u00e9rifier cette d\u00e9claration avec la loi en question \u2013 l&#039;ordonnance, provisoire ou autre. Les gens nous demandent \u00e0 l&#039;ACLC ce que signifie la d\u00e9claration. Tout ce que nous pouvons faire, c&#039;est nous fier aux paroles des ministres. Nous pr\u00e9f\u00e9rerions nous en remettre \u00e0 la loi.<\/p>\n<p>Avant la r\u00e9ponse COVID, il importait g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement peu qu&#039;un d\u00e9cret soit publi\u00e9 imm\u00e9diatement. Ces ordonnances ne limitaient pas les libert\u00e9s des Canadiens comme jamais auparavant. De toute \u00e9vidence, le monde a chang\u00e9 et la primaut\u00e9 du droit exige que la Couronne et le Souverain s&#039;adaptent en cons\u00e9quence. Le moment serait venu pour notre syst\u00e8me f\u00e9d\u00e9ral de fonctionner de mani\u00e8re \u00e0 permettre un ajustement pragmatique de la c\u00e9r\u00e9monie en faveur de la divulgation urgente des d\u00e9crets du Cabinet f\u00e9d\u00e9ral, afin de renforcer la primaut\u00e9 du droit en cette p\u00e9riode chaotique.<\/p>\n<p>Votre sinc\u00e8rement,<\/p>\n<p>Michael Bryant<br \/>\nDirecteur ex\u00e9cutif et avocat g\u00e9n\u00e9ral<br \/>\nAssociation canadienne des libert\u00e9s civiles<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"fws_69e65d62b673c\"  data-column-margin=\"default\" data-midnight=\"dark\"  class=\"wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row\"  style=\"padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; \"><div class=\"row-bg-wrap\" data-bg-animation=\"none\" data-bg-animation-delay=\"\" data-bg-overlay=\"false\"><div class=\"inner-wrap row-bg-layer\" ><div class=\"row-bg viewport-desktop\"  style=\"\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"row_col_wrap_12 col span_12 dark left\">\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone\"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div id=\"fws_69e65d62b6b56\"  data-column-margin=\"default\" data-midnight=\"dark\" data-top-percent=\"1%\" data-bottom-percent=\"1%\"  class=\"wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row\"  style=\"padding-top: calc(100vw * 0.01); padding-bottom: calc(100vw * 0.01); \"><div class=\"row-bg-wrap\" data-bg-animation=\"none\" data-bg-animation-delay=\"\" data-bg-overlay=\"false\"><div class=\"inner-wrap row-bg-layer\" ><div class=\"row-bg viewport-desktop\"  style=\"\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"row_col_wrap_12 col span_12 dark left\">\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone\"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 style=\"color: #ef770e;text-align: left\" class=\"vc_custom_heading vc_do_custom_heading\" >\u00c0 propos de l\u2019association canadienne sur les libert\u00e9s civiles<\/h3>\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t<p class=\"translation-block\">L\u2019ACLC est un organisme ind\u00e9pendant \u00e0 but non lucratif qui compte des sympathisant.e.s dans tout le pays.
