Canada’s Supreme Court has refused leave to appeal in Friends of the Earth’s lawsuit over the Kyoto Protocol Implementation Act. That means that Canadian courts will do nothing about the Harper government’s deliberate defiance of a valid federal law, which required them to take action to comply with Canada’s (allegedly) legally binding international commitment to the Kyoto Protocol on climate change. Harper gambled that he could break both domestic and international law on climate change and get away with it, and he was right.

A law that the courts will not enforce is meaningless.
