	Supreme Court of Canada - Decisions - New Brunswick Broadcasting Co. v. Nova Scotia (Speaker of the House of Assembly)
		The legislative assembly, with its concomitant privileges, was part of the colony's constitution, and in the case of the pre‑existing provinces, like Nova Scotia, was continued by the Constitution Act, 1867.
		It is clear from the evidence that the House of Assembly in the exercise of its parliamentary privileges has prohibited the use of television, with the exception of the recently installed electronic Hansard, in the House of Assembly.
		Televising the proceedings of the House of Assembly from the galleries of the House is clearly an activity of expression, of the reception and communication of information which one might reasonably expect to come within the scope of the function of the press and other media, including the television media.
