February 1 is the day Donald Trump declared the U.S. will impose import tariffs on Canadian products. In the meantime, leaders at the federal and provincial level have been debating responses to those tariffs. One idea that has cropped up again... and it's by no means a new one... is bringing down interprovincial trade barriers. Why do they still exist and what could easing them mean for the Canadian economy? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

But does forcing an agreement on employers and workers lead to the best outcomes? A look at how labour and companies fare when the government steps into contract disputes, and why binding arbitration is probably not in store for Canada Post.

Beat the censors; sign up for our newsletter: https://firstfreedoms.ca/call_to_action_pages/stay_informed/ “The law is always going to be involved in issues with a political dimension, but that is different from the court itself being political.” – Barry W. Bussey In this video, Barry presents his thoughts on the politicization of the Supreme Court of Canada. There is much discussion about the recent Kruk decision wherein Justice Martin, at paragraph 109, brought into the legal vernacular “person with a vagina.” Barry points out that this development is part of an ongoing process at the SCC that is very worrying. Barry reminds us that it was Chief Justice Richard Wagner's condemnation of the Trucker Freedom Convoy 2022 that epitomizes the extent to which the politicization of the SCC has gone. This development is a far cry from the highwater mark during the tenure of Chief Justice Bora Laskin who maintained that judges are to abstain from politics in keeping with their impartiality and their independence.
Our show this week concentrates on the Supreme Court of Canada (SCC). We were triggered by the strange take on a sexual assault case from Justice Sheila Martin, who took issue with the word "woman." Then John reads out a few woke posts from the Court's X account. We also go over an excellent column on the SCC by Barry W. Bussey in The Epoch Times, and we review the Court's decision not to hear the Justice Centre's Manitoba lockdown challenge. A few sympathetic words are reserved for the Chief Justice in his struggle with the federal government to get more judges appointed.National Post, Mar 13, 2024: Supreme Court decision opts for 'person with a vagina' over 'woman'CanLII, Mar 8, 2024: R. v.

Labrador Morning from CBC Radio Nfld. and Labrador (Highlights)
The Supreme Court of Canada has declared the federal Indigenous child welfare law constitutional. We hear why that decision is an important one for Innu Nation.
Last month, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the federal Impact Assessment Act (Bill C-69) was largely unconstitutional, a win for the province of Alberta—and a win for the many energy and climate focused businesses looking to invest in this province. But what does this mean for the future of energy in Alberta, and where do we go from here? In this episode, we are joined by Sean Sutherland, Partner in Litigation at Osler, for a deeper dive into the significance of the Supreme Court's ruling, how this decision impacts provinces across Canada, and the immediate implications for public policy. We also learn more about the Impact Assessment Act itself, how it was received across Canada, and what he thinks the next iteration might look like. ------------ About The Business Council of Alberta The Business Council of Alberta was founded on a simple idea: to make life better for all Albertans. We believe that business has an important role in improving society, and that when business does well, we all do well. We work with the chief executives and leading entrepreneurs of Alberta's largest enterprises to understand the big, long-term challenges that Albertans are facing and work with industry, government, and civil society to solve these problems and build shared prosperity for every person who calls Alberta home.

Alberta won a round in one of its many battles with the federal government after a key piece of legislation was struck down. The Supreme Court ruled Bill C-69, or the Impact Assessment Act, which affected the approval process for major projects on federal land, was unconstitutional. Alberta had challenged it on the basis that it infringed on provincial jurisdiction. Calgary Herald columnist Chris Varcoe joins the show to discuss what made the act so controversial in Alberta, the Court's reasoning in its decision, and how this all plays into the back and forth between Alberta and the Trudeau government Background reading: Varcoe: 'Stay in your lane' — After victory against Bill C-69, Alberta emboldened in feud with feds Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Runnymede Radio, our National Director Kristopher Kinsinger sits down with Gerard Kennedy and Mark Mancini to discuss the differences between the Supreme Court of Canada and the Supreme Court of the United States and why, in their view, Canada's apex court should not be described as a partisan institution.
We look at the circumstances surrounding the retirement of Supreme Court Justice Russell Brown, who stepped down at the beginning of June to end a Canadian Judicial Council investigation. John says the loss of this judge will negatively impact the country's top court. And we also discuss Supreme Court Chief Justice Richard Wagner's recent complaint that the media is showing very much interest in the courts these days.Leonid Sirota in The National Post, Jun 21, 2023: Image-conscious Supreme Court Chief Justice failed Russell BrownBrian Greenspan and Julianna Greenspan in The National Post, Mar 26, 2023: Supreme Court Justice Russell Brown a victim of social media manipulationCTV News, Jun 12, 2023: Supreme Court Justice Russell Brown retires, ending judicial reviewJamie Sarkonak in The National Post, Jun 12, 2023: Russell Brown quits, condemning Canada to Trudeau's activist Supreme CourtToronto Star, Jun 22, 2018: Canada's top judge says Supreme Court should provide leadership at a time when fundamental values are being undermined in the worldHeather Mallick in the Toronto Star, Mar 15, 2023: From rigid and rule-bound to roguish and free-range (original title "From skunks to judges — when did the rules change?")Justice Centre, Jun 15, 2018: Freedom of association rejected by Supreme Court of Canada in Trinity Western rulingJustice Centre, May 20, 2019: 2019 Judicial Freedom IndexSupreme Court of Canada, Dec 13, 1990: R. v.

Usually the news coming from Canada's Supreme Court is about the rulings they make, not about the Justices themselves. But the story of former Justice Russell Brown is unprecedented in many ways. It's one that started in an Arizona hotel and ended with his resignation nearly six months later.The Globe's Justice writer Sean Fine reports on what happened, how the investigation unfolded and what this means for Canada's highest court both in terms of public confidence and its composition going forward.Questions?

Join us for a listen as Kenneth Keung, Aasim Hirji and Kim G C Moody have a spirited and wide ranging discussion about the implications of Deans Knight. On May 26, 2023, the Supreme Court of Canada released its landmark decision in Deans Knight Income Corp. v. Canada cited as 2023 SCC 16. The case involved whether the application of the general anti-avoidance rule (“GAAR”) applied to deny a loss-utilization plan by the taxpayer. In light of the Tax Court of Canada's decision (which decided in favor of the taxpayer) and the subsequent reversal of that decision by the Federal Court of Appeal, the tax community was eagerly awaiting the decision. The majority of the Supreme Court found that the GAAR applied to deny the taxpayer's loss utilization plan. The Court's reasonings are interesting and will have wide implications to the taxpayer community especially in light of the government's recent attempts to “modernize” the GAAR and its release of draft proposals.
It is a testament to what's possible in this country, and to the strength and brilliance of an individual, that someone could be born a refugee in a camp in Germany after the Second World War and yet one day, sit on the Supreme Court of Canada. That seemingly impossible journey is the subject of a new film, called "Without Precedent: The Supreme Life of Rosalie Abella." To discuss the film, we welcome now retired Supreme Court justice Rosalie Abella; and the documentary's producer, director, and writer Barry Avrich.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
