6 Two recent decisions, however, give some basis for suggesting that the Supreme Court of late is taking a less liberal approach to civil liberties: Oil, Chemical and Atomic Worker International Union v. Imperial Oil Ltd., [1964] S.C.R. 651; 41 D.L.R. (ad) 485; and Robertson and Rosetanni v. The Queen, [1964] S.C.R. 651; 41 D.L.R. (2d) 485.
