Good insight, Mr. Kent. Installing a camera would seem to violate privacy although sex in public washrooms is definitely a crime. The fact that it's a crime in the open area implies that the open area entails no expectation of privacy, even though you would think a camera beamed on you...

Insurers are insured by insurers are insured by insurers... ad infinitum. The total Credit Default Swaps value is approx $450 trillion. If there's a domino collapse of the bond insurers the net loss will be a minimum of $20 trillion. This would be a catastrophe on an unprecedented...

U.S $ very strong today. Room for a rate cut. Rate cuts don't necessarily result in depreciation of currency anyway. Soon we'll see a race to the bottom - everybody trying to devalue to gain a trade advantage.

I'm thinking in terms of a cut before the market opens. If a trader wanted to bet on this the best play is buying TSX interlisteds right now since they've already discounted the U.S. futures. TSX has been falling one day more than anybody else. I'm not saying this is THE play, just that...

If a rate cut's coming tomorrow then the down gap indicated by the futures probably won't happen, right?

Futures indicate a major sell-off tomorrow.

Canada runs in tandem with U.S. TSX down Friday with U.S. markets and down today with Asia, Europe. If TSX sells down with U.S. tomorrow it could be oversold relative to U.S., Europe, Asia. TSX has already discounted the U.S. futures today.

WhY? Is there a lot of support there?

Good post.

It started as an expression of outrage at what the initiator perceived as the audacity of the ACLU as exemplified in its argument in defence of Craig and evolved into a discussion of the legal and moral issues involved. Of course, there are always side issues raised in any thread but for the...

Article writers dealing with complex issues sometimes open with a simplified attention-grabbing statement that they adjust later in the article - as this writer did in this instance. People having sex in a stall do have expectation of privacy. As Turok's pointed out, a person in a stall...

I can understand your outrage, whether it's based on what you perceive as an affront to your family's honor or on what you perceive as an infringement on your rights to make free and appropriate use of a public facility. If you anticipate a brawl though, I wouldn't notify the authorities...

They're both different from what I was addressing in my question to Turok. I wanted to know if Turok had read or heard somewhere that the police want to challenge the validity of the precedent that established expecation of privavcy in a public washroom stall. The opening line "In an...

The opening paragraph indicates the ACLU's position. I'm enquiring about an aspect of the police position not addressed in that paragraph.

The foot-tapping is a form of communication and is therefore covered by the 1st Amendment. Seriously. There's probably something somewhere in the Constitution that can be spun around until peeking under a stalls divider comes out as a right. Maybe something to do with access to...

Their original charge was violation of the officer's privacy. Why they decided to switch from that I don't know, given that it seems it was an open and shut case. Maybe there was some technicality involved or maybe they wanted to go with something that would more definitely out the senator...

I'm not sure that this is the issue here since legal precedent has already established that anyone in a public washroom stall enjoys "a reasonable expectation of privacy" . Without probable cause peeping police could be charged with violation of privacy ( but good luck getting any cop...

I will. Don't let the guys stuck on the wrong side of your calls put you off.
