House Arrest - ICYMI： Carrie Sakamoto & Eva Chipiuk on the show last week.

00:00:00.000 was uh and it was you know it's listening to some other arguments like i mean um i think one of the

00:00:06.080 worst ones was saying was the government of canada lawyer basically saying um yeah well the pandemic's

00:00:13.120 over like we should just move on yeah you know and stuff like that um what he said about carrie

00:00:19.360 what he said about carrie and being in the vis program he said um the evidence shows that miss

00:00:24.960 sakamoto applied for the vis program the evidence shows that she was accepted the evidence shows

00:00:31.520 she would up was offered compensation but there's no evidence if she took it or not and so if she

00:00:36.240 did what damages could she possibly have you know that was that was really i thought ignorant and

00:00:41.840 infuriating and i would like to add to that one too because there's three reasons to uh that the

00:00:48.000 purpose is behind a class action having all the common issues i talked about but it's access to

00:00:53.120 justice because it's really hard to sue the government if 100 people or these 3040 400 some

00:01:00.240 do it individually everyone has to find a lawyer and get funding all that stuff uh judicial economy

00:01:06.240 i also mentioned but a really important one is behavior modification so the defendant who is

00:01:13.120 being found to do something not great will have to then change their behavior because of this

00:01:19.760 because the class action has been certified damages have been owed but that speaks exactly

00:01:25.440 to why this it's so important that this class action be certified whether or not

00:01:30.320 we succeed in the end is a different story.
