Hey #canlaw and #lawtwitter, on May 7, I’m going to be part of a panel with Clare Benton to discuss Moving Beyond the Stigma of mental health. Details here: www.cbapd.org/details_en.a...
I think #canlaw makes sense to try.
We could always try #canlaw and see what happens in addition to #lawtwitter
Premier @susanholtnb.bsky.social you MUST bring this into law. No time to waste. Enough w the foot dragging! This is literally a matter of life and death. #DomesticViolencw #IPV #Femicide #Misogyny #PublicSafety #NB #NewBrunswick #Crime #CanLaw

Agree w you 💯. 😡 #IllegalHunting #Poaching #CanLaw #ONLaw
Govt will appeal decision. Pretty confident #SupremeCourt will make right decision, whatever that may be. If law needs to be amended, so be it. #Canada remains a country that respects the rule of law & has impartial judges. I have great respect for our courts, all way up to #SCC. #canlaw #cdnpoli 🇨🇦
It is such BS that these murderers can play the system & delay the trial this way. This makes me angry.

We need to see this across #Canada. Make them pay, pay big! Hopefully one of our big class action law firms steps up. #canlaw #oil #tarsands
New publication in Criminology and Public Policy examining police experiences with Canada's first #drugdecriminalization policy. We highlight #policyalienation, #legalambiguity, and disparate coping mechanisms that reveal the #lawinaction. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

One of our great Chief Justices. ⚖️ #BoraLaskin #SCC #canlaw
#DrugCourts work! They’re an excellent tool in system’s toolkit to help folks who are addicted to illicit substances. Jail is a last resort. Gratifying to see someone come full circle in life, who is now helping others. Bravo Susan! 👏 #addiction #drugs #court #canlaw

Solid #SCC decision. I’m v grateful to our Rt. Hon. Chief Justices and our Hon. Justices for their well-founded decisions over the years. #Canada had a solid #SupremeCourt, which is essential to our democracy. 🇨🇦 #CanLaw #SexAbuseLaw

Looks like Admin Law is kinda relevant to democracy... #canlaw
Is there any other instance of an Officer of the Legislature intervening in a civil suit against the Crown? #ablaw #canlaw
It’s exceedingly rare that I would agree with Ford, but on this I do. Smith and her bunch are traitors to #Canada and should be dealt with accordingly. #canLaw #canPoli
The class actions allege that the emission levels in certain Hino trucks were misrepresented and exceed regulatory limits. The settlement does not involve a finding or admission of liability. #Canada #CanLaw

For Canadian law types looking to find their peers on Bluesky, I'm recirculating my #CanLaw starter packs. Still plenty of room in vol. 2 if you'd like to be added. Please share with your networks!

Imperial Oil is to appear before the Alberta Court of Justice next month, facing prosecution for 9 charges related to the way they operate the Kearl mine. This post explains the differences between prosecutions and the more usual AER administrative penalties, mainly $$$.

Canada's life-saving Good Samaritan Drug #Overdose Act is being challenged by SK police and prosecutors at the Supreme Court. With big roots in Waterloo region, the Act passed parliament with all-party support in 2017. #CanPoli #CanLaw #CanHealth

Question for the admin law people in #CanLaw #ONLaw #SPPA If a regulator receives evidence of something under their jurisdiction, do they have a duty to investigate even without a formal complaint?
This review of ABlawg publications from UCalgary Law about legal developments affecting Albertans in 2024 is notable for the number of posts analyzing aggressive & ideological attacks on the constitutional & democratic basis of Canadian federation.
#canlaw #abpoli
Albertans need a transparent assessment of new forms of major projects with potentially significant consequences.
Psst, undertaking a provincial impact assessment would help avoid an application of the federal impact assessment process. Isn't that what the UCP wants?

The number of individuals sharing accommodation with their landlords & the number of roommates has increased rapidly due to the unaffordability of housing. Alberta's residential tenancy legislation does *not* apply to these arrangements. I discuss the relevant common law in this post.
#canlaw
The UCP's second attempt to dress up the Alberta Sovereignty Within a United Canada Act with a motion to give the illusion of meaningfulness, is, as the authors conclude (after patiently explaining why), simply "a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."
