For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for November 28, 2018

oh, you’re a big help, Connie

“Oyez Oyez Oyez”. Is this town crier phrase used in Canadian courts? When I look it up on-line, it says it is used in the Supreme Court of the United States and Great Britain courts, but I cannot find a single Canadian court reference.

Willis B. Sullen for “Will Be Sullen” goes along with the subtle way of calling the other guy “Pervrett”. You think Will be sullen now? Wait until Elly gets done with him.

His gown is pure United States. It has no tab, no collar, no hood, no waist coat, no striped gray pants. Lynn Johnston loses “proud Canadian” points with this one. The United States judges have the dullest judicial gowns of any modern country. The least exciting of the Canadian judicial gowns is far more interesting than the most interesting United States judicial gown.

The Judge is looking at the crowd and knows it will be a long day in court.

Elly is probably thinking by now that a courthouse in the real world is not exactly Night Court.

He’s wearing a “judicial” expression.

“they all wear the same expression”….not Judge Judy! ;o]

Here comes the judge! Here comes the judge!

Hey Judge! Love the name. From your expression, it suits you.

Wow, all these comments and yet nobody has confirmed if they say “OYEZ” in Canada or not.
