The appellant, who was found not criminally responsible for uttering threats, appealed a disposition of the Ontario Review Board continuing his detention order.
The appellant sought an absolute discharge, while amicus curiae argued for a conditional discharge.
The Court of Appeal upheld the Board's decision, finding that the appellant remained a significant threat to public safety due to his lack of insight into his schizophrenia and the likelihood that he would stop taking his medication if discharged.
The appeal was dismissed.
