Is amplification permitted to be used as a form of amplification?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from R. v. Tse, 2008 BCSC 211 (CanLII):
…The danger inherent in amplification is that it might become a means of circumventing a prior authorization requirement. Since a prior authorization is fundamental to the protection of everyone's privacy interests (Hunter v. Southam Inc., supra, at p. 160), amplification cannot go so far as to remove the requirement that the police make their case to the issuing judge, thereby turning the authorizing procedure into a sham.
