The appellant sought to set aside the renewal of an authorization to intercept private communications (a 'Wilson' application) to prevent the admission of wiretap evidence.
The petition was dismissed, and the Court of Appeal declined to hear an appeal for want of jurisdiction.
The Supreme Court of Canada dismissed the appeal, holding that a review of an authorization is a criminal matter, that there is no need to reconsider Wilson v. The Queen, and that the Charter does not create a right to an interlocutory appeal where none exists in law.
