A Saskatoon murder trial opened on Monday with the judge sharply criticizing the time itโ€™s taken to get to trial.

Justice Richard Danyliuk asked the lawyers to turn in their chairs and look at the gallery.

"The justice system doesn't exist for us โ€” the lawyers and the judges. It exists for them ... It exists for the people of Saskatchewan and Canada."

Danyliuk referenced an Oct. 15, 2024 pre-trial meeting, where he learned the defence had been waiting for photocopies of evidence for 22 months.

As citizens how can we demand more accountability from our courts? We need citizen oversight with the power to take disciplinary actions on behalf of citizens.

22 months, atleast one person should be losing their job over this.
