We’ve all heard about the Adamson Barbecue standoff against Ontario’s Covid19 restrictions which caught worldwide media attention.
Media refused to look at any other side except the fact that they were going against business closure mandates, but why did owner Adam Skelly really do what he did? Was it for fame, more publicity and attention for his business?
We sat down with Adam to hear his side of the story.

JUDGE DISMISSES CASE CLAIMING NO JURISDICTION
In an unfortunate, but perhaps not unpredictable turn of events, Judge Akbarali ruled to dismiss Adamson Barbecue’s case stating that the Superior Court of Justice of Ontario has no jurisdiction to rule on the file. Rather than examining the evidence and opting to rule on the Notice of Constitutional Question submitted by Adam Skelly and his legal team, the Court has dismissed the case pending a revised application at a future date.
This would appear to be a response based on procedure and does not in any way accept or refute the evidence presented by Skelly and his team. It does, however, have the effect of delaying the service of justice. It also remains unknown why, if Judge Akbarali intended to dismiss the case based on inappropriate jurisdiction, why no notice was served to Skelly’s team to this effect and why the hearing was booked in the first place. It is also unclear if the fact that the Superior Court switched judges back in February had any impact on this decision.
Advisor on evidence for Adam Skelly’s team, Chris Weisdorf, had this to say in reaction to this morning’s decision:”
The Superior Courts in this country have the broadest jurisdiction and maximum power and authority to hear every civil proceeding, especially constitutional proceedings. In a free and democratic society under British Common Law, one is subject to natural justice and fundamental justice. Simply put, one has the right to be heard. And that right was denied to Adam. Access to justice was denied. The rule of law has been cancelled, once again. This is the first time in Canadian history a Notice of Constitutional Question served and filed months in advance with a huge evidentiary record was refused to be heard in a Superior Court.”

The Crown no longer exists. The Crown no longer has any jurisdiction in the Canadian court system. The Monarchy no longer exists. Why are lawyers not arguing this point to defend their clients?
