Of Banks, Federalism And Clear Statement Rules: Bank Of Montreal V. Marcotte, Wade K. Wright

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

Federalism-based clear statement rules require governments to use clear statutory language when they pursue initiatives with certain implications for the division of powers. This article makes the case for altering the analytical approach in relation to two of the key federalism doctrines (the doctrine of interjurisdictional immunity and the doctrine of federal paramountcy) by adopting a federalism-based clear statement rule. It makes this case in the context of a discussion of the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision in Bank of Montreal v. Marcotte (2014), an important federalism case that rejected the arguments of several banks invoking both doctrines to avoid …

The Recognition Of Prosecutorial Obligations In An Era Of Mandatory Minimum Sentences Of Imprisonment And Over-Representation Of Aboriginal People In Prisons, Marie Manikis

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

In Canada, recent decisions have reaffirmed the almost unfettered discretionary power of prosecutors, and in Anderson the Supreme Court has also decided that prosecutors, unlike judges, do not have a constitutional obligation to consider the principle of proportionality, including Aboriginal status, when making decisions that trigger mandatory minimums and reduce the sentencing options available for judges. The Court found that the role of prosecutors is substantially different than the role of judges, highlighting that the prosecutorial function does not include sentencing, and that prosecutorial discretion should generally be protected from judicial oversight. One may wonder whether this is a realistic …

Hospital Knows Best: Court And Unfit Accused At The Mercy Of Hospital Administrators: The Case Of R. V. Conception, Suzan E. Fraser

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

This article analyzes the Supreme Court’s 2014 decision in R. v. Conception which considered the treatment order provisions of the Criminal Code, finding that a court may not make a forthwith treatment order without the consent of the hospital except in rare cases where a delay would breach the accused’s rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (Charter). This article argues that the case represents a departure from three decades of legal developments in the sphere of civil and forensic mental health law unified by the principles of restraint and oversight. Further, the article suggests that the decision …

Loyola High School V. Attorney General Of Quebec: On Non-Triviality And The Charter Value Of Religious Freedom, Howard Kislowicz

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

In Loyola High School, et al. v. Attorney General of Quebec, the Supreme Court of Canada held that the government of Quebec could not require a Catholic high school to teach Catholic religion and ethics from a non-Catholic perspective. The government could, however, require the school to teach other religions from a “neutral” perspective. This article takes Loyola as an opportunity to examine two ways that courts have justified limits on religious freedom. First, I interrogate an under-examined aspect of the law of religious freedom: the requirement that claimants prove the interference with their religious freedom is “more than trivial …

Constitutional (Mis)Adventures: Revisiting Quebec’S Proposed Charter Of Values, Dia Dabby

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

In November 2013, the Parti Québécois introduced the Charter affirming the values of State secularism and religious neutrality and of equality between women and men, and providing a framework for accommodation requests (also known as Bill 60). This proposed piece of legislation would substantially alter how public services are offered and received in Québec. This article argues that this legislative project was much more than a simple law, and rather, as discussed, about reconfiguring the constitutional relationship that Quebecers entertain with the rest of Canada. As such, it engages with the constitutional “misadventures”, as experienced in Quebec in 2013-2014. Drawing …

Many Questions And A Few Answers: Freedom Of Association After Saskatchewan Federation Of Labour, Mounted Police Association Of Ontario And Meredith, Michael S. Dunn

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

In 2015, the Supreme Court of Canada returned once more to section 2(d) of the Charter (freedom of association). In recognizing a right to strike in Saskatchewan v. Saskatchewan Federation of Labour and striking down the labour relations regime applicable to RCMP officers in Mounted Police Association of Ontario v. Canada, the Court appeared to broaden the scope of the protected right. At the same time, however, the Court in Meredith v. Canada upheld wage restraint legislation as not infringing section 2(d). This article explores these cases and their antecedents, and argues that the Court’s section 2(d) jurisprudence lacks coherence, …

Safeguarding The Longue Durée: Environmental Rights In The Canadian Constitution, Lynda M. Collins

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

In the modern era, environmental degradation is one of the most significant threats to human well-being and therefore to human rights. Biologically, the right to a viable environment supersedes all other human rights, including the right to life itself. It is not surprising, then, that the vast majority of nations with modern bills of rights have incorporated some form of environmental right or obligation into their constitutions. Respect for the environment is a fundamental value in Canada yet our constitution is silent on environmental rights and obligations. This article will argue that a limited right to environmental protection can nonetheless …

A Step Forward Or Just A Sidestep? Year Five Of The Supreme Court Of Canada In The Digital Age, Nader R. Hasan

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

Over the past five years, the Supreme Court of Canada has released a series of decisions meant to bring section 8 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms into the Digital Age. These decisions acknowledged the unique privacy interests that people have in the information stored on their digital devices and the potential for modern technology to eviscerate privacy if the law of search and seizure does not keep pace with technological development. There is a danger, however, that recent victories for privacy in the courts will be illusory unless the courts develop additional manner of search limits on …

The Past And Future Of Constitutional Law And Social Justice: Majestic Or Substantive Equality?, David Wiseman

The Supreme Court Law Review: Osgoode’s Annual Constitutional Cases Conference

This article addresses the past record and future prospects of the relationship between constitutional law and social justice. The exploration of this relationship is framed as a question of the role that constitutional law has played in protecting and advancing a substantive, rather than merely majestic (i.e., formal), conception of equality. After providing an overview of the current state of income deprivation and inequality in Canada, and the implications of this for a constitutional conception of equality, a variety of areas of constitutional law are examined. It is argued that, across these areas, constitutional law has regularly been willing to …

The Damages Directive And Consensual Approach To Antitrust Enforcement, Raimundas Moisejevas

Yearbook of Antitrust and Regulatory Studies

The article focuses on the novelties introduced by the Damages Directive in the field of consensual settlements of disputes concerning private enforcement. The Damages Directive obliges Member States to ensure that the limitation period for bringing an action for damages is suspended for the duration of any consensual dispute resolution process. The Directive also establishes the main principles that govern the effect of consensual settlements on subsequent actions for damages. Since the EU framework for consensual dispute resolution of private enforcement disputes is quite new, many issues must still be solved in Member States’ practice. While analysing consensual dispute resolution …
