Embark on a journey through Canada and New Zealand's legal intricacies with Michael Mulligan from Mulligan Defense Lawyers as we dissect how these common law cousins approach justice, representation, and the battle against drugs. You'll be captivated by our discussion highlighting the disparities in Indigenous peoples' representation in the prison systems—a pressing issue both here and in the land of the long white cloud. And if you're intrigued by the varying tactics in the war on drugs, our analysis of how New Zealand's crystal meth problems contrast with Canada's fentanyl crisis will provide you with a new perspective on a global challenge.

Let's transport you to a Kiwi courtroom, where the protocols of bail hearings and the role of police officers in lower court prosecutions might astound you. Michael Mulligan brings his legal acumen to the table, shining a light on recent cases and legislative changes that affect our lives. We'll also unearth the history and impact of British Columbia's Crown Counsel system.

Next, we delve into the Patients Property Act, revealing its implications for those with disabilities in our communities. Prepare to be enlightened as we navigate the ebbs and flows of international justice and its local impact in a conversation that promises to be as informative as it is thought-provoking.
