Toronto students win court challenge over prom breathalyzer tes

Olivia Carville reports:

The Northern Secondary School students petitioned the court after their principal, Ron Felsen, demanded compulsory breathalyzer tests at last year’s prom.

The Superior Court ruled in the students’ favour on Monday, stating mandatory breath testing would infringe on their constitutional rights.
