Confrontation identification following a suspect's refusal to attend a parade does not, by itself, render a conviction unsafe where the trial judge adequately directed the jury on the inherent dangers and specific limitations of such identification; it was not erroneous to refuse to supply prior statements to the jury where cross-examination could fairly be followed without them; and specific oral direction that the Crown must disprove an alibi is unnecessary where general directions on burden and standard of proof make the position clear.
