The applicant sought judicial interim release on two separate matters involving firearm charges.
The Crown opposed release on primary, secondary, and tertiary grounds.
The applicant proposed release to two sureties with strict house arrest, electronic monitoring, and a quarantine period.
The court granted the application, finding that the proposed plan adequately addressed concerns regarding attendance in court, public safety, and confidence in the administration of justice.
The decision considered the strength of the Crown's case, the gravity of the offences, the applicant's criminal history, the proposed sureties' reliability, and the impact of COVID-19 on pre-trial detention.
