How have courts considered the adequacy and vagueness of ATPs?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from U.S.A. v. Ranga, 2010 BCSC 1999 (CanLII):
The question of the adequacy of ATPs and arguments about the vaguenesses of ATPs has been argued and rejected by courts in the past in this province and in Ontario on a number of occasions. Three of those cases are USA v. Reumayr, a decision of this court of September 17, 2001; Bezeredi v. Canada, 2007 BCSC 397; and U.S.A. v. Nguyen, [2006] O.J. No. 3098 from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. All three of those cases have considered the same arguments that are raised before me and have rejected that argument. In my view, the principle of stare decisis, in the absence of some compelling reason why I should not follow them, requires me to follow them and I have no alternative but to do so and I do so.
