Principes généraux

Voir également: Jury Selection

The right to a "representative jury" is found within s. 11(d) [right to fair and public trial] and 11(f) [right to trial by jury] of the Charter.[1]

"Representativeness" relates to the "process used to compile the jury roll" (ie. the list of persons from whom the jury is selected).[2]

Juries are to consist of "a representative cross-section of Canadian society."[3] The must be "honestly and fairly chosen."[4] As such, an accused has no right to a jury roll of a "particular composition", including particular number of members of a certain race or ethnicity.[5]

Selection Process

The jury selection process relies on the randomness of selection to achieve a fair sampling of jurors.[1] Additional efforts to change the make-up of the jury may be considered inappropriate.[2]

Representativeness is an entitlement that is essential at the "polling" and "panel" level of jury selection, but not so at the final stage of the final selection of the members of the jury.[3]

A representative jury is important as it "contributes to a sense of confidence that the jury will be fair and impartial."[4] A representative jury has the effect of bringing a diversity of backgrounds and experiences, in addition to cultural sensitivities.[5]

Certain characteristics such as the type of employer the person has are immaterial and have no bearing on the right to representativeness.[6]

A representative jury roll is achieved by ensuring that:

  1. the "draw[s] from a broad cross-section of society" in order to capture as many eligible persons as possible.[7]
  2. the jurors are selected from the role in a random fashion.[8]
  3. the delivery of notices to those who have been randomly selected to attend court to be considered as someone who will sit on the jury.[9]
