GUILTY or NOT? CDN version — the daily Canadian case

A real Canadian criminal case every day. Read the facts as the court had them, weigh the Crown's case against the defence, and render your verdict. Then see what the court actually decided, why, and where to read the judgment yourself.

This run covers Criminal Code firearm offences: twenty real decisions from courts across Canada, including the Supreme Court of Canada, provincial appellate courts, superior courts and provincial courts, spanning 1993 to 2026. Ten convictions and ten acquittals, ordered so that yesterday's answer tells you nothing about today's.

Parties are anonymised as "the Accused" and "the Complainant" while you decide. The real style of cause and the citation appear only at the reveal.

A new case every day from 16 September 2026. Free to play, nothing to install.

How it works

1. Read the brief. The facts as the court had them, with no hint of the outcome.
2. Weigh both sides. The Crown's position against the defence, argument for argument.
3. Render your verdict. Guilty, or not guilty.
4. See the real decision. The ruling, the court's reasoning, and the citation.
