Motion granted affirming Ontario's territorial jurisdiction over publishing intimate images without consent.
The Crown moved for an order affirming Ontario's territorial jurisdiction over a charge of publishing intimate images without consent.
The accused allegedly uploaded images to a website, and while the upload location was unknown, the complainant resided in Ottawa and experienced the effects there.
The court granted the motion, finding a real and substantial connection to Ontario because the harmful effects of the invasion of privacy were experienced in the province and at least one image was taken in Ottawa.
