See: Pocock and other members of his organizationSecond, where a search is authorized by a warrant it is crucial that it be commenced within the warrant period. It is not crucial that it be completed within the warrant period, so long as the officers are still conducting the search authorized by the warrant without unreasonable delay. In R. v. Woodall [1993] O.J. No. 4001 (Ont.C.A.) officers remained in the premises to be searched, continuing the authorized search, after the period expired. This was not a violation. The law is sensible. It is not going to convert a legal search into an illegal search because officers do not drop everything the second the warrant expires, leaving their authorized task incomplete. Similarly it is not going to convert the legal forensic acquisition of a computer’s contents into an illegal search because a continuing mechanical process takes longer than the outside period identified in the warrant.

The Law of Evidence, eh?
The intensity of mental gymnastics required to begin accepting this penultimate evidentiary grot is exhausting. A search warrant is an extreme intrusion upon the fundamental rights and freedoms of a citizen authorized by government on behalf of government for use by government. This routine exception process would have the body politic abdicate agency for administrative order immediately after surrendering guarantees to a demostrable justification that can, at best, be quantified as popular gossip or an expert opinion from a master of nothing.
[1993] O.J. No. 4001(C.A.)
R. v. Woodall, [1991] O.J. 3558[1] No evidence or argument yet made persuades me that the search warrant entered on this pretrial hearing should be quashed, pursuant to the notice of motion filed by the defence, returnable today.
[2] The question that defence counsel wanted me to decide is a procedural one, namely, whether or not the onus is on the Crown, the prosecution in this case, for admissibility of evidence or for the legitimacy of any search and seizure, as it clearly is, in the circumstances of a warrantless search. I believe that defence counsel agreed that in the first event any motion to invoke the application of Section 24 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, as regards, say Section 7 and or 8 of the Charter, places an onus first of all on an applicant who seeks relief. Even if defence counsel does not agree that that is the position with respect to his client in this case, I so rule. And in effect I did rule to that point earlier.
[3] Given that, the defence then called a police officer who gave testimony establishing, a) a surveillance on the property of the accused, b) a search warrant obtained and filed as Exhibit A on this pretrial hearing, c) that the search warrant was executed by entry within its terms of time and date and, d) that items were in plain view other than as specified in the raw warrant, which I find to raise reasonable and probable cause of some other offence having been committed, necessitating, according to the evidence, further search continuing beyond the time specified in that warrant.
[4] Defence counsel submits that I should rule that any items turned up after the time specified in Exhibit A, are in the nature of a warrantless search, thus imposing on the prosecution the duty of establishing its onus to the legitimacy of the continued search and the admissibility in due course of items seized thereunder.
[5] Counsel for the prosecution argued that once the police authorities were inside the premises pursuant to the warrant (which I do not think is denied) that anything turned up and seized, no matter the time and date, and no matter whether or not specified in the warrant, are legitimately seized and capable of being admitted in due course under that warrant Exhibit A. Defence counsel acknowledged that the police maintained their entry through the 8 of August and at least until the 9th of August without interruption. In effect, counsel for the prosecution was saying that although he had no cases to cite in support, that once in, and so long as the occupation was uninterruptedly maintained, all seizures are made and can be made pursuant to that warrant.
[6] Defence counsel submitted that the case of Pares Oriental Rug and the Attorney General of Canada, [1988] B.C.J. No. 3055, which was a case in the British Columbia Supreme Court, supported his position and ought to be persuasive to me to exclude anything turned up after the time specified in the warrant had expired.
[7] The Pares case which was in 1988, I believe -- I was given no citation but rather an original copy of the reasons for judgment -- is a case under the Customs Act. I am not persuaded that the evidence and arguments to this stage made, should cause me to reverse the onus and place it on the prosecution, so to speak, to rule that the era after 9:00 p.m. on the August 7th was in the nature of a warrantless search. Evidence revealed a potentially dangerous situation, with a plain view of the replica of a mauser sub machine gun, a prohibited weapon under the Criminal Code. In my opinion that was enough to continue the search either on the basis of reasonable and probable cause, that is, as warrantless, or within the ambit of the warrant. Exhibit A by the authenticated entry, as counsel for the prosecution had contended. In any case, the applicant has not met the onus on him to satisfy me on the balance of probabilities that Section 24(2) of the Charter should be invoked in his favour.
[8] I do not find that his rights or his freedoms have been offended, infringed or denied. As far as I am concerned, the argument advanced by counsel for the prosecution is upheld, namely, that the original warrant properly acted upon, insofar as entry, time-wise, enabled police authorities to continue their search legitimately.
[9] Even if I am wrong in holding that that is that is limited, namely that entry be made between the specified hours, I cannot find that the police officers under the circumstances in this case, were required, (after the plain view evidence given in testimony was made to me) or was sufficient reason for them to depart and go back and obtain another warrant to authenticate their continuance to search.
[10] In my opinion such a position is an extravagant and unwarranted interference with the evidence that was advanced in this case at that stage, namely that there was a dangerous situation, potentially in view, and that reasonable and probable cause were sufficient to enable them to consider that an offence against the Criminal Code had been committed.
[11] The procedural point then has been decided. The onus was on the applicant. It has not been satisfied to the extent of transferring it to the prosecution. The motion to exclude the evidence at this stage is denied.
[12] MR. ZADUK: Just so that it is clear, Your Honour, I am a little disturbed, because I have not advanced that motion yet, and I am distressed that Your Honour is ruling on it at the procedural stage.
[13] THE COURT: Mr. Zaduk, you will have to, if you do not understand what I said, order a transcript. I have decided things to this stage. That does not preclude you from taking a position at a later stage. I have not made any reference to the other warrants. I have no reason at this stage to quash the first warrant. Nothing prevents you from any further rights that your client might have. I have simply decided that on the evidence I have heard the cases that have been cited to me, the articles that have been cited to me, that you have not satisfied me that the onus has been reversed. And that is the stage we are at.
[14] MR. ZADUK: All right, I guess I am in a position to call further evidence. I would also like to make a further application, Your Honour, to cross-examine the affiants on the various search warrant information on the authority of the Supreme Court of Canada Case, in Garofoli. In conjunction with this Your Honour. I would like to make application to cross-examine at large,
[15] THE COURT: Well, now just hold on a minute, now. Now this is something you should have brought up sooner, really. I believe that it may, it was made clear to me that you were not going to,go behind the warrant. I am not going to do this case in pieces.
[16] MR. ZADUK: Just a minute, Your Honour. With respect,
[17] THE COURT: I am sorry.
[18] MR. ZADUK: I was asked whether I was making any sub-facial attack on a warrant, and I said yes.
[19] THE COURT: At some later stage.
[20] MR. ZADUK: Well, I think that under the authority of the Ontario Court of Appeal Case in Savalos, that the proper approach is to combine a charter attack on a search warrant with a motion to quash it. And that all of those issues should be dealt with in the same voir dire. And it is for that reason that I am now addressing this point at this stage, so that we can deal with the same issues with the same witnesses.
[21] MR. RAFTERY: I am not opposed, so long as that is agreeable to Your Honour.
[22] THE COURT: The last thing I want to do is to deny anybody his rights. But I thought that you were not going to go behind that warrant.
[23] MR. ZADUK: No, that was the opposite to the position I took as a reference.
[24] THE COURT: Well, it would be necessary for me to read all the transcripts and know, you certainly gave me to believe that. I certainly refuse to quash it on what I heard today.
[25] MR. ZADUK: Well, my remarks are on the transcript, Your Honour, and they were quite clear with respect.
[26] THE COURT: Now, what you want to do is you want to bring the motion to examine the affiance to support to the obtaining of the warrant, Exhibit A, is that it?
[27] MR. ZADUK: Yes.
[28] THE COURT: Crown Counsel does not object?
[29] MR. RAFTERY: Well, Crown Counsel, just so that we are clear for the record, does not object to his bringing his application. The Crown is objecting to him leading the cross-examination of affiance. I will have to hear his argument to further state my reasons.
[30] THE COURT: All right. Carry on.
[31] MR. ZADUK: The entire law on this subject, Your Honour has been rendered superfluous up to November 22 of last year. If Your Honour will recall, there was a great deal of law culminating in the Court of Appeal Judgment in the Scientology case, [1987] O.J. No. 64, about this that came up with some pretty ...
[32] THE COURT: Well, prior to what case is the law has to be looked at?
[33] MR. ZADUK: Prior to Garofoli. Garofoli is now the last word on it, and there is a code of procedure in effect, set out at the majority judgment, beginning of page 45. That is through to page 50 of the authorization. Before, under Scientology, the defence, before they even had the right to cross-examine the affiant of a search warrantor a wire tap authorization, had to establish that there were grounds to suspect fraud. Or a substantial nondisclosure or gross negligence in the nature of fraud. Now that has #11, been mercifully put to rest by the Supreme Court of Canada, [1990] 2 S.C.R. 1421. The Court of Appeal, [1988] O.J. No. 365, in essence followed an American Case called Franks and Delaware, 438 U.S. 154, which lead out those particular prerequisites to cross-examine on the affidavit that Mr. Justice Sopinka, says at the bottom of page 46;.
[34] THE COURT: You said the Court of Appeal, you mean the Supreme Court of Canada, do you? Or were they according to the Court of Appeal's decision?
[35] MR. ZADUK: Yes, the Court of Appeal's decision in Scientology, is what Justice Sopinka addresses, at the bottom of page 46 where he says:
"In my opinion, these preconditions are subject to the same criticisms t at were levelled at the preconditions for the sealed packed imposed by the restricted access cases. In Regina v. Playford, 63 O.R. (2d) 289, Mr. Justice Goodman stated; "He cannot gain access to the affidavit, unless he can prove on a prima facie basis the grounds for such access. And he cannot prove such grounds unless he has access."
[36] And in Finlay and Grellette, 52 O.R. (2d) 632, Mr. Justice Martin stated:
"Counsel for the appellant stated that in consequence the restriction placed on an accused access to the sealed pack, the accused finds himself in an impossible situation. To ascertain whether there has been fraud or nondisclosure, he requires access to the sealed packet. He cannot gain access to the sealed packet unless he proves fraud or nondisclosure."
[37] So to use a more colloquial saying, it is a "Catch 22" which the Supreme Court of Canada recognized and has now been put to rest:
"Further, I question the utility of cross-examination if the accused can establish, even on a prima facie basis deliberate falsehood or reckless disregard for truth. Except on television, most cross-examiners would consider a cross-examination to succeeded marvellously if the result is a prima facie case. If the affiant has been deliberately false or reckless. If this can be made out ab-extra, there is no need to cross-examine."
[38] Skipping to the bottom of page 48:
"In my opinion, the preconditions in Franks and Delaware ..."
[39] Which is the case on which the Court of Appeal on Scientology relied.
"... are too restrictive. I believe they are inconsistent with the approach we have taken in Canada with the respect to the right to cross-examine. Moreover subject to the protection of the identity of the informants and the concern with respect to the prolongation of proceedings, I see no reason for such a drastic curtailment of the right. I believe these concerns can be accomplished without imposing restrictions as inhibitive as those in Franks and Delaware. With respect to informants there is no right to cross-examine now."
[40] And we are not talking in this case, Your Honour, as far as I understand it, about any civilian informant.
"Then with respect to prolixity, I am in favour of placing reasonable limitations on cross-examination. Leave must be obtain to cross-examine. The granting of leave must be left to the exercise of the discretion of the trial judge. Leave should be granted when the trial judge satisfied the cross-examination as necessary to enable the accused to make full answer in defence. A basis must be shown by the accused for the view that cross-examination will elicit testimony tending to discredit the existence of one of the preconditions of the authorization."
[41] This being a wire tap case. As for example, the existence of reasonable and probable grounds. That of course would apply equally to search warrant questions.
"When permitted, the cross-examination should be limited by the trial judge to questions that are directed to establish that there was no basis upon the authorizations could have been granted. The discretion of the trial judge should not be interfered with on appeal excepting cases in which it is not been judicially exercised. While leave to cross-examine is not the general rule, it is justified in these circumstances in order to prevent an abuse of what is essentially a ruling on admissibility of evidence.
[42] THE COURT: I am wondering why you did not do this first? It would seem to me that,
[43] MR. ZADUK: Because the ...
[44] THE COURT: Logically it comes before what has already been done.
[45] MR. ZADUK: Well, not really, Your Honour, with respect because had I persuaded Your Honour my position on the first point, the Crown would have had to call these witnesses anyway, and then I would have been able to cross-examine them in due course.
[46] THE COURT: Have you any other little gems to tell me about later, that we ought to know about now, out of order, because as far as I am concerned, you should have brought this motion first.
[47] MR. ZADUK: Well I beg to disagree, Your Honour, for the reason I just stated.
[48] THE COURT: You have the right to disagree with me, but surely when your motion says that you want to quash the warrant, the first thing you do is to show that it was invalidly obtained. And you have left that until after you have tried this other tactic.
[49] MR. ZADUK: I am sorry if Your Honour feels I am trying to take liberties with the court. I am not. Had I succeeded in the first application; this one would have been nugatory. It is a matter of trying to save the court some time.
[50] THE COURT: It seems to me, it is the other way around sir. Now were you to succeed on establishing that there were no reasonable and probable grounds for obtaining the warrant, then the entry would have been illegitimate, would it not?
[51] MR. ZADUK: Well, getting back to Zevallos, [1987] O.J. No. 663.
[52] THE COURT: It would have nothing to do with onus, as to whether it was perhaps, anyway. But obviously you do not agree with my logic, so carry on.
[53] MR. ZADUK: Well, it is not up to me to agree or disagree Your Honour. The Supreme Court of Canada has pronounced clearly in the ...
[54] THE COURT: The Supreme Court of Canada has not been faced with what I have been today. All that I am saying is that this, what you are now trying to do legitimate as it may be, should have been done first. We wasted a morning, in effect. Carry on.
[55] MR. ZADUK: All right. Well, it is up to me only to show, to persuade Your Honour that the right of cross-examination is necessary ...
[56] THE COURT: I am waiting for you to do that.
[57] MR. ZADUK: ... in order to make full answer in defence.
[58] THE COURT: I am waiting for you to do that.
[59] MR. ZADUK: All right. If I can refer Your Honour, to the factum which I gave to the court on the onset. Your Honour will see certain factual matters in here that in my submission bear directly on the sufficiency of the warrant in the admissibility of anything seized, either pursuant to it or pursuant to any other searches. In paragraph 2, I set out my contention that these warrants were pretext, used as a general search. And I do this on the basis of the Crown disclosure to me. That the police had an expectation that something more might be found in those premises than they listed in the warrants. Those other matters, they could not get warrants for because they had no reasonable and probable grounds. So all along they were seeking to get inside the door so that they could have a look. And in due course, I will be making submissions in accordance with what I set out in the factum that such conduct is not lawful. I would submit that there is also reason to hold that the Plain View Doctrine would not apply in this case, because of that very pre-existing expectation that they would discover something they have not,
[60] THE COURT: Mr. Zaduk, excuse me for interrupting you again, but what has the Plain View Doctrine, got to do with whether or not there were reasonable and probable grounds to get a warrant? Do you not need to do something more than simply submit this? Do you want to call evidence to establish that this was a pretext, and that ...
[61] MR. ZADUK: That is what I am saying, to cross-examine them.
[62] THE COURT: .... there were no reasonable and probable grounds? Is that what you want to do?
[63] MR. ZADUK: Well, yes all of this precisely. I am seeking the right to cross-examine.
[64] THE COURT: Then what are you talking about the Plain View Doctrine for?
[65] MR. ZADUK: Because that goes to sufficiency of the search.
[66] THE COURT: If I decide that there was no reasonable and probable grounds for obtaining the warrant, Plain View does not even come into it, sir.
[67] MR. ZADUK: It would at a latter point.
[68] THE COURT: You may know something I do not know.
[69] THE COURT: Well, for example in the Askov Case I gave you, [1987] O.J. No. 1626, the warrant was quashed. And then Judge Borins decided whether in light of that the police could invoke the Plain View Doctrine. And I would have anticipated if these warrants were quashed, my friend might still rely on the Plain View Doctrine.
[70] THE COURT: I see, you are taking it a step further. You are saying that the possibility that a Judge hearing the evidence, which you believe you can adduce, would hear sufficient to cause him to decide under a 24(2) that the administration of justice would be in disrepute if the evidence was not admitted. Is that it?
[71] MR. ZADUK: Yes sir.
[72] THE COURT: I see. Which really has nothing to do though with the legitimacy of the obtaining of the warrant. It applies to the latter stage. I agree with Your Honour.
[73] THE COURT: But the authenticity of the warrant is long before the search started. Why would you be calling evidence relative to Plain View on a hearing to be conducted?
[74] MR. ZADUK: Well when ...
[75] THE COURT: Under your point 2.
[76] MR. ZADUK: Well, I would be seeking the right to cross-examine these witnesses at large.
[77] THE COURT: What you are saying is that something might come out that you might not want to hear.
[78] MR. ZADUK: I am not saying that. Let me try to reduce it to this stage, Your Honour. These are police officers. They are people that testify day in, day out. They are, it is not unkind to typify them as professional witnesses. I am defending a man charged with serious criminal offenses. Your Honour has placed the onus on me to adduce evidence with respect to these searches. My arguments implicitly criticize the conduct of the police. Both in obtaining these warrants, and in executing them, getting evidence out of these witnesses in-chief will be like pulling teeth. They are inherently adverse to my position. In addition to asking for the right to cross-examine, the affiance on the basis of their sworn information, I am asking the court as a practical and fair matter, give me the right to cross-examine the police generally on these issues. Because they are not going to give me the answers I want, unless I drag them out of them. We all know that. And my friend has the right to cross-examine them. That is a great anomaly here. So that is the second thing I am asking Your Honour for. Now, getting back to the first one, I am just trying to focus that a bit. I understand that Officer Bishop, the first affiant for example, swore on his information, that Mr. Woodall had been witnessed breaking into this premises in Terra Cotta. And had been watched, together with another man for a period of half an hour, emptying goods out of that premises, putting them in a car, then driving them back and parking in a garage at Mr. Woodall's own premises in Rockwood. The truth of that matter, as I understand it from reading other will says of the police officers, is that Mr. Woodall had nothing to do with that burglary, was not one of those two men, did not enter that car. And that that was a complete misstatement to the Justice of the Peace. Even on the Scientology standard, that is fraud. In my submission, that opens the door to me to cross-examine. If not in general, at least on that point alone. I expect to be advancing an argument at some place, some point if I get the ammunition that these search warrants were not executed in good faith. Because when they were executed, the police knew that the goods in question had already been taken away. Before they went in there. At ten minutes to nine, they knew that the car in which all of these things were, had already been driven away. And not only that, the police had stopped it, and arrested the people. And had seized the car and had towed it to the police station. And then later, they are pretending that by executing this warrant, they are going to find some of these things. But then to top that off Your Honour, guess when they searched that car, to arm themselves with the knowledge that that stuff is actually in there. Three days later. They defer getting a search warrant for that length of time. And then when they see the JP the next day to get the warrant for the guns, they do not say anything to him about how they obtained the first search warrant, that they "Lied", and I put that word in quotation marks, to the JP the day before. They do not say that they have clarified the situation. And they found out all along that their reasonable and probable grounds for searching Woodall's place the first day have dissolved, because the goods are no longer there and because there is no evidence that he is the burglar.
[79] THE COURT: What time did the goods leave according to your information?
[80] MR. ZADUK: I think sometime around 7:30 or so, and they were ...
[81] THE COURT: Between 6:00 and 9:00 though?
[82] MR. ZADUK: Oh yes, and they were, that car was seized by the police prior to 8:30. And then the police pretend that they are going to go in there and find the goods that they have already recovered. In fairness, as it turns out, one single item that came from the burglary that day did make its way into the Woodall premises. But it was not one of the items listed in the search warrant information. My submission at the end of the day Your Honour is that these applications were accompanied with so much mendacity and bad faith, that these searches cannot stand. And that is what I am alleging at this point. I could give Your Honour more instances, but suffice it to say at this stage I am putting before the court, as an officer of the court, having read the disclosure, and this is subject to any modifications my friend wants to make on this.
[83] THE COURT: I think I have heard enough, so have to call upon Mr. Raftery to respond in opposition to what counsel is seeking to do here.
[84] MR. RAFTERY: Perhaps you can establish what my friend's position is, further, Your Honour. Is my friend admitting that a break and enter took place?
[85] THE COURT: I do not know that it is necessary for me to put some sort of an onus on him at this stage. He is saying that he has made statements to me in support of his contention that he should be entitled to cross-examine those persons who gave testimony persuading the Justice of the Peace to grant a warrant filed as Exhibit A.
[86] MR. RAFTERY: That seems to be his position, Your Honour. What I have difficulty with is among what he said, there is nothing to detract from the search warrant sufficiently, that a Justice acting judicially would not have granted the warrant.
[87] THE COURT: How do I know that if I do not hear them?
[88] MR. RAFTERY: Well he is the one that is making the application. And according to the Garofoli, which is a wire tap case, which is much more intrusive, the courts have said, than a regular search warrant, far more invasive of privacy. First of all, it is dealing with a sealed packet application. My friend, first of all, has the affidavits in support of the search warrant. So this is a different situation, to start off with.
[89] THE COURT: He also has the disclosure.
[90] MR. RAFTERY: He also has the disclosure.
[91] THE COURT: He says that they are in contradiction.
[92] MR. RAFTERY: I will be guided certainly by Your Honour. However, it is the Crown's submission, that at page 49 in Garofoli, the search, or the wire tap matter. The court says a basis must be shown by the accused for the view, the cross-examination will elicit testimony tending to discredit the existence of one of the preconditioned to the authorization. As for example, the existence of reasonable and probable grounds. It is respectfully submitted, that nothing he has said has obviated the reasonable and probable grounds of the officer obtaining the search warrant to believe that there were items within the residence, as a result of the break and enter, as set out in the information to obtain the search warrant. And it is respectfully submitted that until he goes to that stage, that this is not a free for all. Not only does he want to cross-examine that officer at large, but anybody else that might have been talking to the officer. And completely subverting a judicial process as respectfully submitted. He has got to show there was some fraud on the Justice of the Peace to the extent the Justice of the Peace would not have issued that search warrant. He has not done that. As for this suggestion, that there are alterer motives that there are, whatever, that it is not in good faith, it is respectfully submitted that he has got to go to the very heart. He has got to say that the officer, he has got to have some suggestion that officer, when swearing the information, had no reasonable and probable grounds to believe that there were items within that residence which would afford evidence of an offence. That is what he has got to give Your Honour. And he has not done that, even through counsel's submissions. There is no reason to go behind the information, and go behind the search warrant in this instance, in the respectful submission of the Crown.
[93] MR. ZADUK: That is ...
[94] THE COURT: I do not need to hear further from you. I am, I am not satisfied at this stage, that there is a reason which ought to prohibit me from granting the motion. Counsel has advanced the position that there is contradiction between Crown's disclosure, and the information that was placed before the Justice of the Peace, sufficient to enable him to cross-examine the affiant, or affiants with reference to the search warrant, or warrants.
[95] MR. ZADUK: Warrants.
[96] THE COURT: Or warrants. For that reason, I am going to grant the motion. I am going to require that the Crown produce those who gave supporting testimony to a Justice of the Peace with reference to search warrants. Now, whether or not the testimony elicited by cross-examination, which right I give to counsel for the defence or not is another matter. But sufficient concern has been raised in my mind to cause me to feel that this right ought to be granted. Therefore produce them after lunch.
[97] MR. RAFTERY: Thank you, Your Honour.
R. v. Woodall, [1991] O.J. 3559[1] I find that there has been sufficient evidence to convict the accused on Counts 2, 3 and 4, without any doubt. I am not convinced, on any plateau, that anything other than the monitor was in only the accused's possession. With reference to Count 1, there is evidence that the garage was used by Carl, as well as the father and while bolt cutters and screwdrivers, and things of that sort were found in the garage I cannot find beyond reasonable doubt they belonged to or were in the possession of the accused, for the purposes charged, so I cannot agree with that count. With reference to Count 6, I think I will register a stay, pending any disposition that ultimately will take place, with reference to Count 4. With reference to Count 5, I think there is enough contradiction in Westley's evidence, to cause me to be in reasonable doubt, as to whether that weapon was the property of the accused, to the extent of finding him guilty of being in possession of it. Therefore there will be convictions on Counts 2, 3 and 4, acquittal with reference to Counts 1 and 5, and a stay with reference to Count 6.
[2] Now, what do you say about disposition?
[3] MR. ZADUK: Mr. Woodall, Your Honour, has asked me to ask the Court to consider passing sentence today.
[4] THE COURT: Are you ready to proceed?
[5] MR. RAFTERY: Yes, Your Honour.
[6] THE COURT: All right, I will hear from counsel for the prosecution first, go ahead.
[7] MR. RAFTERY: Your Honour, maximum penalty, is reserved for the worst offence and the worst offender. Given the lack of criminal precedence of the accused, the Crown is not in a position to say that the accused is the worst offender. Given the nature of the offenses, however, one is very close to being admissions of fact.
[8] Those are my submissions.
[9] THE COURT: Thank you. I listened very carefully to all of the evidence that was heard during the length of this trial. I listened very carefully to the submissions made by Counsel. Counsel for the prosecution asserts, that there is no record, but counsel for the defence, quite properly performing his duty, has acknowledged that there is a previous conviction for Theft Under, and one for Failure to Appear, and that the accused has been in jail now, for almost 7 months.
[10] This accused is to that extent, almost a first offender, and I do not think, by any stretch of the imagination, that for the purpose of specific deterrents, this accused heeds penitentiary sentence. Under the evidence that I heard, he gave himself up immediately he was confronted, and caused no fooforah with the Police, once he knew that the jig was up. So that has to be taken into consideration, as well as his pretrial custody time.
[11] On the other hand, while he is almost a first offender, he's not youthful, and I certainly adopt the submissions made by counsel for the prosecution, in that, they do substantiate, that the accused was in a business, in a business being carried on, over a period of some time with others on a continuing basis, per the evidence of his own son, and at times, he was even more of a participant in thefts involved in acquiring property; as evidence, the military material, that he was a lookout in connection with, and which was ultimately found on the property.
[12] He has been, it has been shown, that he has crossed the border, in his errands, with reference to business, whether this was legitimate business that he carried on, or otherwise, I do not know. Certainly, some of the border crossings involved firearms.
[13] Given the fact that he is almost a first offender, as I have said, I do not think a penitentiary sentence is appropriate. I think general deterrence will be served by a reformatory sentence. You see, in this particular case, there was in excess of $20,000, capable of changing hands between himself and thieves, and himself and subsequent owners on the day in question, and his own son testified, that stuff would come in in the morning, and be gone soon, that the items kept changing. He was regularly disposing of stolen goods to other people, I can conclude. That is something that has to be considered, in the view of general deterrence, as also is the fact that he was in possession of, first of all, a semi-automatic gun that he brought from the United States, and then was converted under his supervision, from semi-automatic to automatic, and thereafter fired, and that he had hidden away on his property, another weapon, a hand gun, which was prohibited.
[14] Under all of the circumstances, and adopting to the extent that is appropriate the remarks of counsel for the prosecution with reference to the business going on, while at the same time tempering the status of this particular individual on the basis of submissions made by counsel for the defence, relevant to the disasters that have overtaken him since, while he was in pre-trial custody, I think that the sentence in a range of about 18 months is appropriate.
[15] Woodall is therefore sentenced on Count 2 to 12 months in jail, on Count 3 to 4 months in jail consecutive, and on Count 4, 2 months in jail consecutive. There will be an Order to go prohibiting him from owning any firearms, ammunition, or explosive substance for 5 years.
[16] Is there anything I can do about the disposition of the seized weapons?
[17] MR. RAFTERY: You can order the destruction thereof, Your Honour.
[18] THE COURT: Can I order that under 491?
[19] MR. RAFTERY: We never considered which Section.
[20] THE COURT: Well I looked at the Section, and it says:
"Where firearms had been used in an offence."
[21] I can do that. Can I do it otherwise?
[22] MR. RAFTERY: Can I have the Court's indulgence? S. 103 s.s. (6), Your Honour.
[23] THE COURT: S. 103 s.s. (6)?
[24] MR. RAFTERY: That refers to an application brought by Crown with respect to disposition of weapons seized under warrant, and indicates the Provincial Court Judge, I would take it, that it would apply to mutatis mutandis to this Court. It's not desirable in the interests of safety of the person, or of any other person, the person should have possession, custody, or controlled of firearm, or other offensive weapon, the Judge may order the article seized, be disposed of on such terms, in this case, the Provincial Court Judge, deem it's fair and reasonable, and gives such directions concerning the payment or application of the proceeds of any of the dispositions the Judge sees fit.
[25] THE COURT: Do you have submissions on that?
[26] MR. ZADUK: No. I have some doubts whether Your Honour can do it, but I'm not opposing it. Mr. Woodall has no interest in recovering any of these weapons.
[27] THE COURT: Well, I think what I will do is I will wait until you make an application. You can make an application to me later on, and I will listen to it, Mr. Raftery.
[28] MR. RAFTERY: Thank you.
[29] THE COURT: I am not certain, that s. 491 covers it, and I am surprised that there would not be something under s. 491, by a Subsection, that would cover this situation, but I can be approached later with reference to that. Those newspaper clippings, photocopies, can be filed, and there is the indictment.
R. v. Woodall, [1991] O.J. 3563[1] I am going to try to break this down into about seven parts. I am going to make a brief attempt to summarize the evidence or the events of that day from my memory as chronologically as I can. Then I will deal with an overview of the evidence of the police officers involved. Then I am going to come to grips, thirdly, with the complaints that the defence has with reference to Exhibit One, and deal with the cases, that I believe relate to the decision that has to made as to the validity of that search warrant. Then I am going to review the defence submissions, and those of the prosecution.
[2] On the 7th of August, 1990, there were at least seven testifying police officers involved with what went on that day, with the possible exception of Officer McDaid, of the O.P.P., and the probable exception, insofar as attendance at the scene anyway, of Officer LaFrance of the O.P.P. It would also appear that there was more than one police force involved, the Ontario Provincial Police were involved as was also the Halton Regional Police. The Ontario Provincial Police was represented by at least two, possibly three, detachments of involvement. It would appear that Detective Skinner of the Ontario Provincial Police was largely in charge of the whole matter from important times onward anyway, although at an earlier stage Sergeant McMillan of Halton Regional Police was on the scene, at least at a command post.
[3] The evidence will reveal that surveillance began on the Woodall premises in Eramosa Township around eight o'clock that morning, arising out of unrecorded suspicions, that is, the source of the suspicions were unrecorded. During that morning period, certainly a person named Boarder and one named Aitkman were seen near the Woodall premises during the early stage of the day before noon. I am not certain whether there's evidence as to whether Woodall was visible. It was also likely that there were children seen in or near the premises because of something that happened later. Later on in the day someone named Liam Nolan was seen at the premises, and at another location, a Shawn Nolan was connected somehow to the whole series of events.
[4] Somewhere around 10:30 in the morning, a blue Cordova was seen to leave the Woodall premises by officers conducting surveillance and this was reported probably to the command post, and ultimately that car was followed. In it were two occupants, one of them was for certain, Boarder; first name I think, was Carl. The other one probably was a male named Aitkman. This car was seen to go to a location in Peel Township at a geographical location described as Terra Cotta and surveillance officers watching saw a break-in at a residence at that place, that took place somewhere after 11:00, for five to ten minutes, entry having been made through a window and articles having been removed and put in the Cordova.
[5] At some stage during this burglary, because there was no evidence at that stage that there was an occupant involved, a neighbour came into the picture and the burglars fled at high speed. In the course of events, they were followed back to the Woodall premises where the Cordova was driven immediately into an unattached garage at the Woodall property, and the two exited from the car and went into the house. For reasons given by the police no apprehension was then attempted. I am satisfied with those reasons why that did not take place at that time. It was because of continuing investigations.
[6] Sergeant McMillan of Halton Regional who appears to have been at the command post about two kilometres or miles away from the Woodall residence but in contact with surveillance officers at the scene, at the Woodall property, telephoned Caledon O.P.P. Detachment to advise it of events and was talking to Police Officer Bishop who may also have been a detective. As a result of information that Officer Bishop obtained, he decided to get a search warrant to search the Woodall premises, ostensibly to recover in due course the property that was taken from Terra Cotta back to Eramosa Township to the Woodall property, even though he knew that other investigations were continuing, according to information he had received.
[7] Throughout the day, he talked to other officers and dispatched other officers, for example, to confirm that in fact there was a Sergeant McMillan who was not then known to him, in charge of an investigation going on and this was done by contacting the Guelph Ontario Police Detachment. Officer Bishop also, to verify, dispatched another officer, who didn't testify, I think the Officer's name was Hatcher, to the Terra Cotta residence, and was able to talk to the occupant or owner whose name was DaSilva and a description at that stage was obtained as to what appeared to be missing from the property following the break-in that had been seen, including, amongst other items, numbering about ten, a fur coat with the owners or occupants name in it.
[8] Proceeding from Caledon Detachment to Guelph with the information that he then had somewhere around three o'clock, he ultimately was able to attend on a justice of the peace between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m. with the information that he had then obtained, in a fashion that he said he obtained it, and verifying it to the extent that he felt was appropriate, and got a search warrant to search the Woodall premises. The justice of the peace who gave the warrant stipulated that the hours of effect were 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on that day, the 7th of August, 1990. Officer Bishop then went to the Command Post and reported in to whomever was there, and probably whomever was in charge.
[9] Other people were seen around the place, including, this Liam Nolan, property was seen being taken from the garage where the blue Cordova had driven into the house, and I should say things were being seen, things were seen being taken from the garage and put in another vehicle that was driven up near the garage. Woodall was seen carrying something into the house, under his shirt from the garage.
[10] Ultimately, Woodall was also seen to leave the premises with this Liam Nolan in a car into which articles had been placed from the garage at his place, and apparently he came back alone, Nolan having disappeared out of the sight of what was able to be seen at the Woodall premises.
[11] Finally, without making any mention of what took place anywhere else because I don't consider it important to the issue here, the Police decided to close in on the premises after 8:30, and as they say, before 9:00, I think 8:48 was mentioned, a telephone call was made to the premises and Woodall was told to get the children out if they were there because the Police were moving in and he was told to come out and expose himself so that the Police could deal with him, without them having to go into his house and he complied.
[12] He came out of the house, and was wearing an ammunition belt which had in it live rounds of 357 ammunition according to Detective Skinner. He was then arrested by Detective Skinner, given all of his rights, and he was arrested for possession of stolen goods. I can only assume that other officers had already gone into the house before that took place, there may be evidence to that effect, I'm not sure, but in any case, that's what happened.
[13] Before nine o'clock, Woodall was allowed to go back into his house and cuffs were removed so he could telephone a lawyer.
[14] Every officer who testified testified that when they first went in saw a multiplicity of items; television sets, VCR's, cameras, video cam corders, recorders, radios, computer equipment, ultimately, but certainly there was an extraordinary number of articles that were not usually found in a family home, because of their numbers, particularly television sets; and also immediately, the officers who went in testified, those who testified who had gone in, testified that they heard a radio monitor monitoring police broadcasts in operation when they went in, and in plain view, although partly obscured, was part of what appeared to be a submachine gun.
[15] Now, that's the stage of things by nine o'clock, by some while after nine o'clock, I would think about 9:22, as I remember those numbers, a "walk" through the house revealed an incredible array of articles. Woodall, presumably, was removed,from the house and taken away under arrest to the lockup.
[16] There is no evidence that there was anyone else occupying the house, at that time, certainly, there was no evidence of Boarder, Aitkman, or the Nolans at that time, although, at that time the police officers testified that they did not know the whereabouts of all those people. As a result of that, the police evidence was that the guns, my recollection is, that the guns were secured and taken away. I am not positive of that, but I think that is what they said, as a precaution, or safe keeping, those that had by then been found.
[17] The officer in charge, Detective Skinner, decided that it was impossible, under the circumstances, to continue the search then, and he ordered the premises to be secured, and the evidence, I find, establishes that round-the-clock, from that point on, those premises were secured by the attendance of police officers on duty, until the final events transpired after seizure of these items, not the next day, but the next day, the 9th, because of the length of time that it took to do all this.
[18] Defence counsel submits -- and I'll refer to his submissions at more length later -- that the search warrant that had been granted, was defective after nine o'clock on the 7th for two reasons. One, he says that it was obtained on defective information such as to render it invalid, under the law of Canada, and two, that in any event it lapsed, or ceased to exist, or to remain valid after nine o'clock that evening.
[19] In my opinion, the gap that has to be closed here with reference to validity is probably best stated in a recent case from the Supreme Court of Canada, John Claude Garofoli against the Queen. This judgment was rendered late, or last Fall and is the judgment expressed by Mr. Justice Sopinka, for the Court, and in that, while he was referring to the necessary substance and support for the obtaining of the wire tap, he was dealing with affidavits in support of statements causing a judicial officer to grant such a thing as we are dealing with here, namely, a search warrant; and in that judgment, His Lordship referred with approval, in my opinion, to the judgment of Mr. Justice Martin in the Ontario Court of Appeal, earlier, where he held that, in effect, that a false statement included in an affidavit intentionally or a false statement included with reckless disregard for the truth was sufficient to strike down any order obtained on that basis.
[20] I think Sopinka J. also, approved a statement of Mr. Justice Martin, that we are dealing here with a preponderance of evidence, that a warrant so obtained, on that basis, becomes a nullity and the fruits of the search excluded. It's interesting to me to note that Mr. Justice Martin, also in referring to a United States Supreme Court judgment, expressed his approval that truthfulness in this context, insofar as the material and support, is not equivalent to correctness; that the information put forth, if believed, or appropriately accepted as truth, would he sufficient.
[21] I think what the law boils down to then is that a search warrant is validly obtained even though there are technical errors or even mis-statements in the supporting material, unless the defect thus created is more than a minor or technical nature. If it is more than that then, of course, a violation would occur as would a blatant disregard of the rights of the person whose privacy is being invaded in the absence of some evidence of urgency.
[22] Now, in the material in support of the search warrant first used, because there were three others later obtained, Officer Bishop testified that he received a telephone call from Sergeant McMillan of the Halton Regional Police. I'm going to deal with these things as they come along, and state my opinion as to the evidence. I do not think there is any doubt about that. He did receive a phone call. It appears also to be true that he was told that Halton Region was investigating break-ins, and that they had surveillance on two named suspects, one of them, being the accused and the other being, a Boarder, Carl Boarder, that is, I do not think there is any doubt about that. Those two were under surveillance towards noon that day because by that time Boarder had returned from the break-in. I do not know that there is any evidence as to the Guelph Detachment of O.P.P. also having numerous break and enters in their area. I know of no evidence to that effect.
[23] The next statement made by Officer Bishop is that Halton Regional had been following the two suspects operating a blue Cordova bearing the licence plate described, and I would think that that information was wrong. Boarder was being followed in that vehicle prior to that time but I do not think there was evidence that would support the fact that Woodall was in the vehicle presumably during the break-in.
[24] The next point is stated by Bishop as evidencing that Constable Poot, he describes as a Halton Regional Police Officer Surveillance Unit person, observed the accused and Boarder at a residence at Terra Cotta, carrying a television, a radio and video equipment to the blue Cordova, while that is not borne out by the evidence. Boarder was there but Woodall was not. Then he states that they were chased and he named them again, and they fled, and then he attests to the fact that they, Boarder and Woodall, were followed to Lot 10, Concession 5, Eramosa Township, Route 1, Rockwood, which I think we can assume is the Woodall premises.
[25] Officer Bishop then testified as to what he had done. He had sent a Caledon Detachment officer to the Terra Cotta residence to investigate and got a list of stolen property and information as to how entry was obtained. And finally, Officer Bishop says that for all of these reasons he had reasonable and probable grounds to believe that a search of the Woodall house would afford evidence with respect to the break and enter observed. I think that is proven out by the evidence.
[26] Now the errors, of course, are with reference to whether Woodall was along on the break-in. He was not. There may be a small error as to whether Poot was a Halton Regional Police Officer because I think he later testified and said he was an O.P.P. Officer.
[27] The errors then are that, though Boarder was along on this escapade, Woodall was not. But there is no question that whoever was in the vehicle besides Boarder, it did go to Terra Cotta, and it did go back to the Woodall premises, and it did go to the garage, and I think the officer had reasonable and probable grounds to believe that articles from that break-in would be found in the Woodall house.
[28] Now, I could review all of this evidence, which I have done, and I could point out the soft spots from the defence standpoint but I do not think it is necessary for me to do that to this extent. I think Officer Bishop was performing a duty which he believed was mainly interested in the Peel Regional problem which was a break-in. If I am to believe Sergeant McMillan, and to some extent, his evidence was not given as reliably as I thought it might have been, I have to believe that he did not tell Bishop to get a search warrant, he did not tell him a lot of the things that Bishop says he did. McMillan said, for example, which I find almost incomprehensible, that the first time he knew there was a warrant was when he arrived in Court the day he testified. That makes me question his reliable memory. Although, he did testify he was told, because he was not at the scene, that when the blue Cordova drove away from the Woodall place, it had no plates on it. He did say that he had never told Bishop that the accused was one of the burglars, although he remembers calling him, but he was not sure of the time. There is no doubt that Officer Bishop was in touch with other people that day than Sergeant McMillan.
[29] The testimony will reveal that the officers had good reason to think that there was something strange going on in these premises when you consider that Detective Skinner said that he ultimately was responsible for seizing about 200 items, including 9 operating firearms and 20 non-operational, or including, imitational firearms. All of these things seized the next day and the day after were taken to the Guelph Police Station, or the O.P.P. warehouse location in Guelph for security.
[30] I accept the testimony of the officers that the entry was made before nine o'clock. I am satisfied that they had sufficient reason to believe that not only was there a large and astonishing quantity of stolen goods but they had reasonable and probable grounds to believe that that there was the possibility of dangerous weapons on the premises. It turned out that the first one seen was not operational. In fact it was a replica, although there is some evidence it appeared to have a magazine in it -- that's the submachine gun that was first seen.
[31] A further search the next day turned up the 357 Magnum which, of course, is a prohibited weapon, unless it is properly registered. (I will deal more with that later, if I have to.) It seems to me that when the accused was arrested with ammunition for that sort of weapon on his person that there was grounds for a considerable amount of suspicion here.
[32] Exhibit 10 shows photographs which identify the items that were transported. I do not think it is necessary for me to into the various numbers, at this stage.
[33] Mr. Zaduk for the defence submits that a search warrant containing misleading statements is invalid because it was not full and frank on its face, disenabling the justice of the peace to act judicially and, therefore, should be struck down. He cites the case of Sismey, an unreported case from the British Columbia Court of Appeal, where he says, that tests are set out therein, that are reliable to use in a case like this. That judgment was given in March of last year. He speaks about the test, including, where there is inadvertent error and the test is that the order obtained is still valid if it stands up once the erroneous material is deleted, but if it is apparent that the information is intentionally misleading then the warrant should be quashed. Test number three, where the material is incomplete so that we are left in the middle of those two range of tests, but if it leaves an impression that is not supportable otherwise once the material has been deleted, that the warrant should be quashed, or treated as invalid, and any fruits obtained thereunder excluded.
[34] Counsel asserts that though it was thought that McMillan's information was accurate if there was any lying observable or if the person taking an affidavit in support knowingly misleads himself that that is enough to strike it down. Counsel says that Officer Bishop should have known a lot more than he did; should have done a lot more investigating than he did; should have incorporated a lot more material in the submission to the justice of the peace as he gained it through the afternoon, and as a result, he disenabled the justice of the peace to act judicially and that I should hold that the justice of the peace would not then have granted the warrant.
[35] Of course, not only did Mr. Zaduk but also perhaps the counsel for the prosecution state that it was not up to, me to put myself into the shoes or chair of that judicial officer and decide what I would have done under the circumstances. What I have to do is decide whether the materiality of the errors are more than trivial or technical to the extent that where they amount to lying, deception, or deliberately withholding information such would cause the justice of the peace to act otherwise.
[36] Counsel says that at the time of the application Officer Bishop had more information that should have been made available to the justice of the peace. I do not know what, particularly, would have been able to help that judicial officer do anything other than grant the warrant because whatever the errors were, it seems to me, that they were in description of events and not so much in amounting to withholding of information that would cause her to refuse the warrant.
[37] Counsel asserts that the VanWeenan case, which I will refer to in a few minutes, says that the test is total knowledge, or constructive knowledge and that that was not available because Bishop did not try to update himself. He was misleading the J.P. in saying he received all this information from McMillan which may or may not have been true. He reminded me that McMillan has told the Court that he had not asked for a search warrant to be obtained.
[38] Counsel cited many other cases to support the fact that where search warrants or authorizations were refused, or were turned back in a higher court it was because of misleading the tribunal first approached.
[39] Then Counsel turned his attention to the fact that no search was conducted of the Mustang vehicle before the premises were intruded upon before nine o'clock that night and that could have been done. There is no question that by that time at least two of the items were -- must have been on the property, regardless whether some of them had been taken away in the Mustang, because they were later found.
[40] Summing up, counsel said that the identity of the informant was defective in Officer Bishop's material; the accused was not a co-burglar, and that as a result there was not enough left. He stated that it was not for me to substitute another offence or amend the warrant, and he asks me to ask myself the question: Did the justice of the peace think that the accused was one of the burglars? Then he dealt with the Plain View Doctrine and he spelled out what he said the tests were of the availability of this doctrine. It is that first of all, the officers had to be lawfully on the premises, finding goods readily, apparently as stolen, and he points out that of the articles seized, only 75 were ever found to be stolen in the final identification that took place under the auspices of the police, and 17, in fact, were returned to the care or the direction of the accused, and that in any case the Plain View Doctrine is only available where the exposure was unexpected. He talks about the continuation of the warrant after nine o'clock that night, and cites the Pars case in the Court of Appeal, no, it would appear to me, it might have been in a Motions Court in British Columbia in 1986, where the learned judge at that time said that any rugs seized pursuant to a Customs Act infraction could not be entered into evidence because they did not meet the time limit which he thought was appropriate in sorting them out from one place to another.
[41] Counsel then dealt with overreaching, that they overdid it, and I have also made some mention of that, because obviously, if you subtract 75 plus 17, from 200, there is a lot of stuff still there, that they have not been able to tie in as stolen. Some evidence was given in that regard, as to the insistence on reliable identification before material was returned to the rightful owner if these other items did, in fact, not belong to the accused.
[42] He also cites, the Moran case, as Regina against Moran -- I'll give these citations in a minute -- as striking down the need to continue to act after nine o'clock, which of course, was the case where the Police Officers had entered premises, but then hid for the purpose of conducting further investigations when their authority for going into the place was to search for and seize a knife, and in that case they had already found it but they did not apparently move it, they just hid and waited to see if a culprit would arrive, and in that case there was a breach of the common law. That case was in 1987, and in effect, treated the officers, I from the time after they found the knife, and did not seize it, to be trespassers.
[43] Mr. Zaduk also dealt with the second set of warrants as having to fall if the first one was deemed to be invalid and authority, that a prior unlawful entry, which he said took place when anything continued after 9:00 p.m., on the 7th, contaminated anything that happened thereafter, and that anything seized, or was found or seized under the further warrant was not admissible. In effect that the first warrant would contaminate anything thereafter.
[44] Most of the cases cited by counsel for the defence, were said by the crown counsel to amount to deceptions, or something similar to that, where they found that search warrants were not validly obtained. For example, Sismey in the British Columbia Court of Appeal, because it was found that the person approaching the justice of the peace had intentionally misled him or her and left an incorrect impression. That is the case, I think, where the officer deliberately withheld information that the person named had been acquitted, though he had been charged with anearlier offence. The Court there held that where there is an inadvertent error, if the erroneous part were to be deleted and the information could stand by itself, then the warrant was not invalid, and that is, as a matter of fact, was the result in the Sismey case. Incidently, Sismey, does not appear to have been reported, I was handed, just a court office copy.
[45] The VanWeenan case is a case cited by counsel for the defence, and that was a case where the Supreme Court of Canada, sent VanWeenan's case back for a new trial because she had been known to the Police Department in connection with the authorization sought but was not named, therefore, any evidence against her was inadmissible, and a new trial should be ordered. That was VanWeenan and Chesson against the Queen. (I'll make these documents available in case they are wanted.)
[46] Donaldson was a case from the British Columbia Court of Appeal, Regina against Donaldson, where the information that was stated in the material in support of the warrants, probably deliberately, neglected to state that the information had been obtained, as a result of interception, but rather that it was simply reliable and the Court frowned on that.
[47] In Regina against Carron, in the District Court decision of Judge Bernstein in 1982 the warrant was sought to obtain Travellers Cheques, but it was obvious before that that the police officer believed that there was a weapon eventually to be obtained, and the Judge held that that information was deliberately kept out causing him to strike that down.
[48] The McCafferty case, was where the search warrant was sought for some particular reason, but in actual fact a bug was planted and the Court did not find that something that it could approve. He referred also to the judgment of the Chief Justice McRuer of the High Court, in 1947 in the Bell Telephone case, where he held that where the purpose of a search warrant is simply to secure an opportunity of making observations that that is not a sufficient reason to keep a warrant valid.
[49] In Corcoran, the material filed was patently untrue; in Guiller there was a lack of candour. And I referred to Moran and this is the case where the police officers hid themselves in a shed after they had succeeded in obtaining what they had been looking for.
[50] Counsel for the prosecution says that it's my duty to substitute my view for what the justice not of the peace could have done but to consider the material in front of her and decide whether or not there was reasonable and probable grounds first of all for Bishop to say what he did and then to make his advancement to the justice of the peace. Counsel asked me to find that there was no evidence of a lack of good faith and that there was nothing in the warrant itself to signify on plain reading that the affecting of any search after 9:00 p.m., was in breach of the search warrants so long as entry was made before.
[51] I am not able to find in favour of defence counsel's submissions that the search warrant, Exhibit One, was obtained in such a fashion as to amount to either an intentional or reckless disregard for the truth on the part of Officer Bishop, the affiant, towards its acquisition. And I have referred to the approving citation by Justice Sopinka, of what Justice Martin had said in the Court of Appeal, in Garofoli, and in particular, these words:
"The affidavit must only be truthful in the sense that the information put forth is believed or appropriately accepted by the affiant as true."
In giving his evidence, Officer Bishop said he relied on the information that he had received.
[52] Because of the submissions of counsel for the defence, I allowed Bishop to be cross-examined on pretrial motion. I even allowed Officer McMillan to be cross-examined with reference to the contact between himself and Bishop, which in retrospect, I think was overly cautious on my part, given counsel's suggestion to me that there was open conflict between them going to the root of the truthfulness. Whatever, I do not find that Bishop was either intentionally mistaken or reckless as to whether or not the accused was seen as an active burglar earlier on the 7th. That was his perception as what had occurred, though, as he later found out, it was in error.
[53] Sergeant McMillan gave his own evidence as to not having himself told Bishop that the accused was in fact a co-participant in the breaking and entering in Terra Cotta, that he did not carefully examine the search warrant before moving in on the accused's place, and did not turn his attention to whether any of the items specified in the search warrant were still in or at the property of the accused.
[54] All of the evidence of these officers was forthrightly given with the possible exception of McMillan whom, as I have already said, astonished me when he said he did not know until the day he testified that there had been a search warrant. Where appropriate, the testimony they gave was supported by examination of their notes by counsel. Though there are inconsistencies here and there, in a case like this, it convinces me, certainly on the balance of probabilities, that there was no lying going on nor any deception. Those inconsistencies between Bishop and McMillan are in any case of minor importance, in no way advancing the submission of any fraud or dishonesty or recklessness or that Bishop deliberately intended to mislead in his pursuit of the accused.
[55] This finding arises from a careful assessment of the evidence given by Officer Bishop as to the source of his information identifying the accused. He said that Sergeant McMillan of Halton Regional had so informed him of the names of three suspects performing daylight breaking and enters and described stolen licence plates, and a blue Cordova. Later he received information from a Detective Farroll identifying the location of the allegedly stolen property at the accused's house in Wellington County. On that day, from noon onwards, officers from many different locations and forces, more than one force and detachments, were interlaced together. While Bishop thought that McMillan was his informant in regard to the total activity of the accused, Bishop did two other things: He sent a police officer from his own Detachment to the scene of the break-in to gather details of missing items from the owner of the property burgled, and he telephoned Guelph O.P.P. Detachment to get confirmation that there was in fact a Sergeant McMillan in charge of an operation and surveillance. And that this surveillance was taking place near the accused's property in Wellington County. That officer was not known to him at noon on that day. I think this caution on Bishop's part satisfied me of his reasonably preparation of his material. He may or may not have known of important further details concerning a car leaving the accused's place with a fur coat, or even other items from the Terra Cotta break-in, and clearly, before this warrant was obtained, he did not verify that the accused was the burglar, or was a burglar, he simply relied on the information that had been received. Unquestionably the other man named was a burglar.
[56] It is not my function to place myself in the position of the authorizing J.P. and determine whether she would have given the authority had she only been supplied with information as to possession of stolen goods or that he was only seen as other than one of the burglars. The information, as I said, was right with respect to Boarder and right that Boarder returned to Woodall's place after the burglary and drove out of sight into the garage. The warrant was given in what I consider to have been on good faith material advanced and ought to stand or fall on that basis. As far as I'm concerned, it remains valid, in spite of the errors, which I consider to be minor, and not other than trivial.
[57] It occurred to me that perhaps if the police were attempting to be devious on this occasion, they might have chosen to arrest the accused for theft right away so as to make the detention consistent with the warrant. Of course, they did not do that. They arrested him on what they then, by that point, felt was appropriate, just before nine o'clock. As a result then the warrant was valid having been obtained on the reasonable and probable grounds. What I looked for and was bound by was whether or not any defects existed that would offend what the law has been stated to be and clearly expressed by Justices Sopinka and Martin. Once having decided that that was validly sufficient to authorize entry, pursuant to its chronological limitations, it now becomes necessary to ask myself two questions. First, was any seizure made after the 9:00 p.m. deadline, lawfully made? Second, if not, does that render all such later seizures unlawful and thus evidence with reference thereto inadmissible, unless carried out pursuant to other lawful orders or warrants? To answer these questions, it is vital to consider the circumstance confronting the police upon their entry of the Woodall premises at night, namely, an astonishing array of articles that defy anyone's imagination as indicating other than a stockpile of stolen goods. As well, there were in plain view numerous weapons on the walls, on a bed and what appeared to be a submachine gun partly obscured from visibility. Obviously, there was no possible way that a controlled search, inventory of the items, which as I said, ultimately turned out to exceed 200, or seizure pertinent or pursuant to the search warrant, could have been made before 9:00 p.m.
[58] Under these unusual circumstances, since the owner of the property, the accused, had been arrested for possession of what was reasonably and probably believed to be stolen goods, the officer in charge properly decided to secure the premises and arranged for an identification officer to be available for the next day in daylight, August 8th. In fact, the activities then carried out with respect to the household items and goods and weapons found took all day of the 8th and all day of the 9th. The security of the premises by police officers was maintained under orders from the officer in charge around the clock from prior to 9:00 p.m. on the 7th until late in the afternoon on the 9th when a moving van took this stuff away.
[59] To hold that no search or seizure was lawfully possible after 9:00 p.m. on August 7th, after these viewings, would make a mockery of the administration of justice. Unquestionably, the accused had rights which just not be denied but there is a responsibility cast upon police officers to pursue what is felt to be a fair and equitable balance between the rights of privacy and the need of law enforcement.
[60] In my opinion, the act of securing the premises to continue a controlled search and, if appropriate, seizure, was a wise one. I cannot but find the furtherance of the police activities on the 8th and 9th of August were other than pursuant to warrant, Exhibit Number One, and lawfully carried out thereunder. That other warrants were sought on the 8th in connection with this whole saga, and out of abundance of caution, perhaps, does not dissuade me from my finding. Plain view of scores of probably stolen goods and the obvious presence of weapons, of police radio monitoring equipment, made further investigation mandatory. To hold otherwise would be to overbalance privacy rights into the realm of hypocrisy.
[61] Whether the obtaining of a new warrant or warrants amounted to a acknowledgement that the first had expired, is not the issue here. If it had, then perhaps argument could be advanced that the police security of the premises, too, was unlawful. Should they have left this place untended, given the great number of items located and with weapons and ammunition lying around? Of course not. Did they really need more search authority with respect to the house and the garage? In the peculiar circumstances of this case and without ruling that in all situations only entry is required by a specified hour to prevent a search warrant from lapsing, I find that the search warrant first obtained on August 7th, Exhibit One, did not lapse at 9:00 p.m that night, and that it remained operative and cloaking all activity conducted until the police finally left the premises with the thus lawfully seized articles on August the 9th. Accordingly, the answer to the first question, is yes.
[62] As a consequence, I do not need to deal with the legitimacy of the other warrants, with regard to seizures made at the accused's premises.
