Question Period – April 23, 2018 -Judicial Appointments

Mr. Speaker, Nick Chan was charged with first degree murder, conspiracy to commit murder, and directing a criminal organization.

Today, he is a free man, after the charges were thrown out of court due to delay because of the justice minister’s negligence. The minister has failed to fill nine out of 10 new judicial spots to deal with the backlog in Alberta’s courts.

In light of that, what excuses is the minister going to give to this criminal’s next victims?
