The case opens before the Supreme Court of Canada in Ottawa on Thursday, May 12, 2011 and has drawn international attention.

Royal Wedding: Buckingham Palace Preparations
With just a matter of weeks to go preparations for the marriage of Prince William to Catherine Middleton are well underway.
Staff at Buckingham Palace are already getting ready for the reception that will take place after the nuptials on 29 April.
On the big day the Palace's state rooms will play host to an afternoon reception after the ceremony at Westminster Abbey.
This will be followed in the evening by a more intimate dinner and dance for 300 friends of the royal couple.
The action will take place in the Palace's west wing with the white drawing room, the music room, the blue drawing room and the state dining room all being utilised.
Meanwhile, the official multi-tiered wedding cake is expected to be on display in the nearby picture gallery.
In order to have the palace looking its best for the events staff are working hard to display it at its finest.
For example, the palace's greatest art will be on display, with masterpieces by the likes of Canaletto, Rembrandt and Rubens.
According to Edward Griffiths, Deputy Master of the Household, palace staff are used to hosting big events and cater to roughly 50,000 guests a year.
He said 60 people will be working at the afternoon reception, doing everything from opening car doors for guests to serving them canapes and drinks.
Meanwhile, guests will also sit down to a feast prepared by the Palace kitchens.
Head chef Mark Flanagan and his 21-strong team will be responsible for catering to the 600 people invited to the afternoon reception.
Details about the food selection and the wine list are being kept a secret but it is said that the food will show off "the best of British produce."

Silk production - from worm to catwalk, southern India - 2010

Silk production - from worm to catwalk, southern India - 2010
SILK PRODUCTION - FROM WORM TO CATWALK
For many silk - the Queen of all fabrics - spells luxury, elegance, class and comfort.
But for hundreds of thousands of people in India it is something much more mundane but infinitely important - a vital life line.
An estimated 700,000 people are involved in various sericulture (silk production) activities in India.
Half of all the silk produced in India comes from the region of Karnataka where a sub-tropical climate allows for year-round production.
In 2007-08 India exported more than GBP 400 million of raw silk, carpets and ready made garments.
In 2007 alone it produced 18,320 metric tonnes of raw silk, making it the second a largest silk producer in the world.
It is second only behind China, which produced 108,420 metric tonnes of raw silk in the same period.
While the difference is vast, India's contribution is even more impressive considering that much of its production is done using outdated tools or by hand.
Ultimately, however, poor technology and high production costs undermine the vital role played by sericulture in improving India's rural economy.
The Worm
The Silkworm Seed Production Centre in Mysore is run by Professor N.M. Biram Saheb.
He explains that the Indian government pioneered the provision of disease free lays of eggs as a way of improving yields without increasing start-up costs
The practice means that farmers are provided with a steady stream of healthy silkworm eggs.
It is deep in the seed production centre where the 'work' of creating these eggs takes place - in darkened rooms where moths are laid out on newspaper in racks of plastic trays.
Powerhouses of the silk industry they may be, but in reality they are pale weaklings whose only purpose is to mate...

Pat works in a cafe where she doesn't have to wear any special uniform. It's a hot and often exhausting job, but she keeps cool and fresh in a simple tailored frock in a linen weave rayon. She finds this material does not soil easily or crush and is simple to launder every week. The dress, though plain, is very smart and at the end of the day off comes the apron and she's ready to step out. Her little apron is plastic, in a deeper blue than her dress. This is coupon free and only needs sponging down to keep it spotless. She gains more good marks for her shoes which look practical with their smooth fit and wide heels to keep her smiling all day.
