Manitoba’s chief justice says the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms hired a private investigator in order to try to catch him breaking COVID-19 public health orders.

Court of Queen’s Bench Chief Justice Glenn Joyal said he learned of this private investigator in the last few days, noting someone hired the private investigation agency to gather potentially “embarrassing” information regarding his compliance with public health restrictions.Joyal said he is working on his decision for a constitutional challenge calling on the courts to strike down part of the province’s public health act.

“The matter that has come to my attention, while greatly concerning for the administration of justice should not in my view have an impact on this case or my analysis of the administrative and constitutional issues that arise in this case,” Joyal said.- With files from CTV’s Michael D’Alimonte and Josh Crabb.
