Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from R. v. S.F., 1997 CanLII 12443 (ON SC):
In Baron v. Canada, supra at 528, the court stated that “…the existence of a discretion is indispensable to the imposition of conditions to the issue of the warrant”. Quite apart from the court’s constitutional mandate to order reasonable conditions as to the manner in which a warrant is to be executed, s. 487.06(2) provides: 487.06(2) The warrant shall include any terms and conditions that the provincial court judge considers advisable to ensure that the seizure of a bodily substance authorized by the warrant is reasonable in the circumstances.
