Of Federalism, Secession, Canada And Quebec, Greg Craven Oct 1991

Of Federalism, Secession, Canada And Quebec, Greg Craven

Dalhousie Law Journal

This article does not seek to examine comprehensively either the political or the legal intricacies of the possible secession of Quebec from Canada. To either task, the author's knowledge would be unequal. In general terms, all that is aimed at here is the very modest goal of bringing to bear upon the present Quebec-Canada scenario perceptions garnered from a consideration of similar (though different) situations which have arisen in other federations, and especially in the Australian federation. More specifically, what is attempted is three things. First, a brief discussion is undertaken of the concept of secession as such. Second, secession …


Devolution Or Disunion: The Constitution After Meech Lake, Calvin Massey Oct 1991

Devolution Or Disunion: The Constitution After Meech Lake, Calvin Massey

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

Professor Massey discusses the theoretical benefits of decentralized federalism and proposes constitutional changes to obtain those benefits and to respond to the disparate aspirations of the Canadian polity. He proposes that the provinces and federal government share concurrent authority over most powers, with provincial legislation paramount in cases of conflict. He suggests an empowered Senate, partially selected by the provinces and partially appointed by the federal government, aboriginal self-government, and territorial Senate representation. Finally, Massey proposes altering the constitutional amending formula to enhance public participation and facilitate amendment where unanimity is not critical.

The Law Of Assembly In The People's Republic Of China: Implications Of The Retreat To Formal Legalism For The Legislative Process In China, Mark Findlay, Thomas Chor-Wing Chiu

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

Under the most current constitution, written in 1982, the citizens of the PRC are guaranteed freedom of the press, speech, assembly, association, procession, and demonstration; furthermore, all citizens enjoy the rights and assume the responsibilities prescribed by the constitution and the law. In 1989, following the student democracy demonstrations in the PRC, the government circulated a draft of the law concerning assemblies, processions, and demonstrations for public comment. While the 24 articles of the draft legislation effectively removed the right to free public protest by interposing a variety of administrative procedures governing proscription of venue, application, approval, and review, the …


Reconsidering The Employment Contract Exclusion In Section 1 Of The Federal Arbitration Act: Correcting The Judiciary's Failure Of Statutory Vision, Jeffrey W. Stempel Jul 1991

Reconsidering The Employment Contract Exclusion In Section 1 Of The Federal Arbitration Act: Correcting The Judiciary's Failure Of Statutory Vision, Jeffrey W. Stempel

Journal of Dispute Resolution

The clouded case law of Section l's employment contract exception presents an opportunity to improve the fairness and function of the Arbitration Act, an opportunity the bench has failed to grasp for nearly a half-century. Part II of this article reviews the case law surrounding the judicial construction of what constitutes a "class of workers engaged in interstate commerce," with courts generally holding that the employment contract exception affects only workers directly involved in interstate movement of objects. This view fails to further the overall goals of the Act and undermines the judicial goal of fairness. Recently, the Supreme Court …

Feminist Theory, Professional Ethics, And Gender-Related Distinctions In Attorney Negotiating Styles, Lloyd Burton, Larry Farmer, Elizabeth D. Gee, Lorie Johnson Jul 1991

Feminist Theory, Professional Ethics, And Gender-Related Distinctions In Attorney Negotiating Styles, Lloyd Burton, Larry Farmer, Elizabeth D. Gee, Lorie Johnson

Journal of Dispute Resolution

Historically, law has been a male-dominated profession; only recently has it become possible to consider the woman's experience and perspective with respect to law practice generally and negotiation practice in particular. This paper addresses two gender-related issues: first, are there identifiable gender-related distinctions in the negotiating behavior of attorneys? Second, if there are discoverable differences, are they attributable to ethical perspectives linked to gender? In addressing these questions, this article begins by reviewing the literature on feminist theory, moral development, and negotiation theory. These themes are tied together in a review of the small but growing literature on negotiation ethics. …


...Meech Lake To The Contrary Notwithstanding (Part Ii), Roderick A. Macdonald Jul 1991

...Meech Lake To The Contrary Notwithstanding (Part Ii), Roderick A. Macdonald

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

In this essay, which has been published in two parts, the author argues that the Meech Lake Accord was more than a hastily cobbled together political deal between the Prime Minister and ten provincial premiers. Despite the unattractive process by which the Meech Lake Accord was struck, and especially defended, despite the disingenuous character of the arguments most often advanced for its adoption, and despite its close connection with other aspects of the federal government's political agenda which many Canadians found suspicious, the Meech Lake Accord did respond to an important issue in post-patriation constitutionalism. A review of Canadian constitutional …


Aboriginal Rights: The Dispossession Of The Métis, L. A. H. Chartrand Jul 1991

Aboriginal Rights: The Dispossession Of The Métis, L. A. H. Chartrand

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

Section 31 of the Manitoba Act 1870 provided for a land settlement scheme for the benefit of the families of the Métis residents, towards the extinguishment of the Indian title. There are now no Métis reserves in Manitoba; section 31 was implemented in a way which permitted the quick dispossession of the Métis in the nineteenth century. The writer argues that the mode of implementing section 31 was a breach of constitutional obligation. Reference is made to the subsequent history of the western Métis and comments are offered regarding the current significance of the Métis dispossession.

Hypothetical Bargains: The Normative Structure Of Contract Interpretation, David Charny Jun 1991

Hypothetical Bargains: The Normative Structure Of Contract Interpretation, David Charny

Michigan Law Review

The argument here amplifies the contract literature with respect to basic contract theory and its doctrinal applications. The argument extends and corrects the current understanding of contract theory in several respects. First, it clarifies the role of liberal and communitarian argument in constructing interpretive conventions for contract. As currently understood among lawyers, the predominant noninstrumental theories of contract are in large measure indeterminate as to the question of default rules. Nonetheless, as I shall explain, these theories do have limited implications for the ground rules that govern interpretive conventions. The argument here, then, clarifies the role of noninstrumental theory in …
