Ben (The Tiger in Exile) -

The Chief Justice has been one of the better justices, but I still remember former Justice (now UN High Commissioner) Arbour's characterization of the judiciary as an ideal career for a social activist to get his/her agenda implemented. (Speech at Dalhousie Law School during the 2003/04 academic year.)

There's always going to be politics involved in these things. The best way to influence the direction the judiciary is going to take is to win successive elections, in my opinion.

(Snide comments about the judiciary do not help the cause.)
