🇨🇦 Ontario tries cash bail, the courts rush to protect the revolving door

Ontario finally experiments with a basic civilizational principle: if you want out on bail, post some actual money. Naturally, the legal priesthood is already considering putting it on hold, as reported. In Canada, elites will lecture taxpayers about public safety, then panic the moment a province adds even a sliver of accountability to a bail system that has become a catch-and-release service for repeat offenders.

This is the Trudeau-era disease in miniature: endless rights talk for the accused, endless risk dumped on the public. Ontario is reacting to a country where violent disorder climbs, trust in institutions collapses, and ordinary people are told to accept insecurity as the price of progressive compassion. The courts, as usual, seem more animated by process theology than by the right of Canadians to walk their own streets without subsidizing the next reoffence. A sovereign country protects citizens first. Ours protects the machinery that keeps failure going.
