LA COUR:
J'aime bien traiter avec des cas pratiques, pas des cas
th~oriques. Alors, on va prendre un dix minutes.
(SUSPENSION DE LA S~ANCE POUR QUELQUES MINUTES)
REPRISE DE LA SEANCE
Me IRVING:
My Lord, my friend has argued over almost a full day on
a wide range of issues, and has drawn the Court's
attention to a large number of cases. I will try to
reply as briefly and coherently as I can. In doing so,
I will not necessarily follow the order of presentation
taken by Mr. Joyal.
Let me start, if I may, with something that was
said just in the last few minutes. My friend was
referring to the article by Mr. Binette, and if I have
it correctly, he was referring to page 963. I'm not
going to read these out again to the Court, My Lord.
But the thesis he was advancing was that the law of
evidence can't deal with these issues, that somehow, for
some reason, which I must say escapes me, the theory
which Dr. Warner puts forward in this book is something

which can't be dealt with in the ordinary way.
We know now, My Lord, that Mr. Joyal and Mr. Baker,
that our friends propose to put in only the book by Dr.
Warner, and the report of the Royal Society on
Addiction, in addition to those materials which are
already listed in their Rule 15. I'm just going to
stick with Dr. Warner for the moment.
Effectively, the Court is being told that the
Warner opinions which are expressed in the book "Selling
Smoke" are somehow of a nature that the ordinary Rules
of Evidence won't deal with it.
Well, My Lord, that's simply not true, and there is
nothing in the world to stop Dr. Warner from coming and
testifying before the Court like any other expert
witness.
As you know, from the Affidavit, in fact, it was
proposed by the Attorney General that he should be a
witness. We have not been told why he is not here. We
have no idea why he couldn't come, or wouldn't come.
But there is nothing -- there is nothing at all to
suggest that this is a matter of such complexity or
difficulty that Dr. Warner couldn't come like the other
witnesses and give his evidence under oath in Court, so
that he could be cross-examined.
My friend linked that argument to another which,

again, surfaced rather late in the argument. He said it
is not up to the Crown to prove that the abolition of
Canadian advertising is going to have any effect on
consumption, but only to show the Court there is some
rational connection between the advertising ban and the
object of the Law.
Now, I don't agree with that proposition, but if
that is the view the Attorney General of Canada takes,
then in their final argument, no doubt, they will say --
we were not required to prove any, by any direct
evidence, that banning advertising would have any effect
on the consumption of tobacco in Canada, but merely to
point out to the Court that there is some reason to
believe it.
But that has no bearing on the issue which is now
before you. That is simply a matter of final argument.
If my friends don't think they have to make that
evidence. Then, of course, they won't make it. But it
has nothing to do with the evidenciary value of a book
of this kind now being offered as extrinsic evidence.
My Lord, in the entire argument put forward by Mr.
Joyal, unless I am mistaken, you were not referred to a
single case where it was decided at the trial level
where the issue is hotly in dispute, where the issue is
one of fact, and where it is not a subject of such
