[00:11:43]Oh, we got some. I know you do. Thank you, though. All right, you take it easy, guys.

[00:11:47]The right to record in Canada and the USA is governed by a principle of constitutional paramountcy that renders a Karen's subjective disapproval legally irrelevant.

[00:11:57]In Canada, section 52 of the Constitution Act of 1982 establishes the charter as the supreme law, while the USA relies on the supremacy clause and the First Amendment. These frameworks ensure that the public square remains a site of open observation. Because the law is supreme, any state intervention triggered by a bystander who is uneducated about the lack of privacy in public is of no force or effect, ensuring that individual liberty is not a privilege subject to the approval of others.

[00:12:23]To prevent the government from acting as a personal enforcement arm for misinformed citizens, the law imposes a heavy justificatory burden on the state.

[00:12:31]In Canada, the Oakes test under section 1 requires that any limit on a right be minimally impairing and backed by a pressing and substantial objective.

[00:12:41]US courts apply a similar standard of strict scrutiny for content-based restrictions. A Karen's personal annoyance or their ignorance regarding filming rights does not constitute a valid legal reason for an officer to seize a camera or stop a recording.

[00:12:56]This ensures that the state remains a neutral guardian of the law rather than a servant to social friction. The living tree doctrine in Canada ensures that section 2B protections for expression grow alongside technology, a concept mirrored in US jurisprudence regarding digital media. While a Karen might view a smartphone as a modern nuisance, the law identifies it as a protected medium for the search for truth and public accountability.

[00:13:20]This purposive interpretation ensures that the constitutional floor remains stable even as technology evolves.

[00:13:28]By prioritizing the democratic value of transparency over the uneducated demands of bystanders, the judiciary ensures that the right to document remains a constant feature of North American life.
