I don’t know the details of the Canadian court cases, but progress definitely can come in waves.

The US tolerated segregation and lynchings for 100 years after the Civil War. In a few years, courts and legislatures and police stopped tolerating those things.

We’re in a new wave of progress now with marriage equality and recognition that the Confederate flag is shameful.

If everything is legal, you don’t need a Supreme Court. Maybe they are trying to make their job easier. Will they be paid less?
