The appellant appealed his convictions for possessing a firearm, carrying a concealed firearm, and carelessly storing a firearm.
The Crown's case was entirely circumstantial.
The trial judge found that the appellant had joint possession of a firearm his brother displayed during an altercation at a McDonald's, based on the appellant's position and actions.
The trial judge also found the appellant was a party to the careless storage of two firearms discovered in an alley after police pursuit.
The Court of Appeal upheld the convictions, finding the trial judge properly applied the legal principles governing circumstantial evidence and that her findings and inferences were reasonably available on the evidence.
