In a context of extensive state regulation, can premises where an activity subject to the specific regulation be reasonably protected?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from R. v. Bourque, 2001 BCSC 621 (CanLII):

In Potash, supra, at pp. 418-19, La Forest J. confirmed that, in a context of extensive state regulation, premises where an activity subject to the specific regulation is conducted have a considerably lower expectation of privacy associated with them. He noted that the strict safeguards set out in Hunter v. Southam had been developed in a very different context.
