Supreme Court of Canada, Weatherall v. Canada (Attorney
General) (1993) 2 S.C.R. 872. The court ruled that ‘equality does
not necessarily connote equal treatment...The reality of the
relationship between the sexes is such that the historical trend of
violence perpetrated by men against women is not matched by a
comparable trend pursuant to which men are the victims and
women the aggressors...the effect of cross-gender searching is
different and more threatening for women than for men.’
