 In a decision by Cory JA, the Court of Appeal for Ontario found that the video camera did not violate the reasonable expectation of privacy, as a camera was analogized to an extension of memory.Cory saw this as a "small step" beyond the use of human recall, and relied upon the older American cases of "United States v White" and "Lopez v United States".La Forest J, for the majority, found that the surreptitious monitoring by law enforcement constituted an unreasonable search.
