ABSTRACT The law is often left to lawyers and the courts to sort out. But what happens when advances in medical science and understanding overtake the law in a certain area? We will examine this question by drawing upon Canada’s approach to criminalization of non-disclosure of HIV status to sexual partners. First, we will look at the Supreme Court of Canada’s leading case on the matter: the 1998 R. v. Cuerrier. Second, we will ask why Canada has taken what many commentators have called one of the harshest approaches in the world to this issue. Third, we will review medical advancement since R. v. Cuerrier and try to understand how this could, or could not, be used to inform modifying the law in this area. Finally, we look at appeals pending before the Supreme Court and how the courts have (mis)interpreted HIV/AIDS science. The presentation will strive to be as interactive as possible.
