Lori Renée Weitzman and Mileyne Grégoire, for the respondent. English version of the judgment of the Court delivered orally by [1] LeBel J. _ We all agree that the motion to adduce fresh evidence does not meet the criteria developed by the courts and that the majority of the Quebec Court of Appeal was right to dismiss it. We also believe that the appellant has not established a basis for this Court to intervene. In particular, it has not been shown that the guilty verdict is unreasonable or that there has been a miscarriage of justice. For these reasons, the appeal is dismissed. Judgment accordingly. Solicitors for the appellant: Deslauriers & Lafleur, Ottawa. Solicitor for the respondent: Poursuites criminelles et pénales du Québec, Montréal.
