Why would the trial not be held in the supreme court of Canada if the prime minister of Canada was assassinated?
If the Prime Minister of Canada were assassinated, the trial would not be held in the Supreme Court of Canada because the Supreme Court primarily serves as an appellate court rather than a trial court. Such a case would likely be prosecuted in a lower court, like a provincial superior court, where serious criminal cases are typically tried. The Supreme Court may become involved later if there are appeals regarding decisions made in the lower court. Additionally, the nature of the crime could prompt special considerations regarding jurisdiction and media coverage.
