Christopher Enns has been known as a medical cannabis activist in the Halifax area prior to legalization. And now he's been successful acting as his own counsel in a case that speaks to The Charter of Rights and Freedoms . Enns argued his rights were violated when police searched two of his storefronts and seized products in 2019. Enns argued his Garofoli Application in front of Judge Elizabeth Buckle in a Nova Scotia courtroom on Friday, October 22nd, 2021. The motion was to exclude evidence in the case that brought charges against him almost two years ago because of the way police were able to get a search warrant issued. Enns discusses some of the issues he raised and what the decision means to him and his legal situation. The Prosecutor in the case, Len MacKay says once the judge excluded the evidence, and the Crown asked for the charges to be dismissed. They do have 25 business days to launch an appeal, but MacKay offers no comment on what the Crown will do.
