Although, he has already established a reputation across Canada as a Portfolio Manager that delivers results for his clients. Kash is on top of the rolodex for the most highly respected media sources as the go-to expert for his insights with economic and market happenings. It is clear Kash takes the time that many don’t. Although headquartered in Ottawa, this year Kash has appeared in: Bloomberg, Globe and Mail, National Post, Washington Post, Hong Kong Times and the Wall Street Journal. This is over and above his frequent appearances on the Business News Network. When I asked him how it felt to receive such widespread recognition; “For me it’s just sharing the work we do every day. It is certainly a compliment but I am clear on what my main priority is each and every day: deliver results for my clients”. BUILT BY DESIGN BUILT After building an impressive 10 year track record for portfolio management, it was time to further distinguish his practice from his competitors. He knew exactly how he was going to achieve this: combine portfolio management with in-depth wealth planning for his clients. Kash holds a firm belief that doing financial planning is simply not enough. Tax planning with regards to a client’s financial strategy needs to be incorporated into the planning. More importantly, it needs to be an ongoing commitment on behalf of advisory teams. When Nicholas Allaham and Kash J. Pashootan it came time to choose his business partner, Kash reflects “Nicholas was a clear choice; he is regarded as one of the As I walked into Kash Pashootan’s corner office, surrounded leading financial and tax planning specialists in Ottawa.

This regular contact brings them closer to each client and is an ideal way to identify planning opportunities to further discuss with their respective accountant. “Our clients have an advantage”; Kash Pashootan states. “We deliver an equal commitment to wealth planning as we do to investment management by having a dedicated professional for each. Our approach extends to address much more than retirement planning, to also include income, tax and estate planning”. Is it working?

    REVIEW OF POVERTY RIGHTS, SOCIAL CITIZENSHIP, AND LEGAL ACTIVISM EDITED BY MARGOT YOUNG, SUSAN B. BOYD, GWEN BRODSKY AND SHELAGH DAY Margo Louise Foster* Margot Young, Susan B. Boyd, Gwen Brodsky & Shelagh Day, eds., Poverty: Rights, Social Citizenship, and Legal Activism (Vancouver: UBC Press, 2007), 389 pp. Louise Arbour has likened the present state of human rights in the inter- national context to a pillar of glass: these rights are invisible, decorative, and support nothing.1 Her sharp metaphor seems equally applicable to the treat- ment of human rights - in particular, social and economic rights - on the domestic front. Many Canadians take pride in the fundamental rights and freedoms entrenched in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms,2 but as the essays in Poverty: Rights, Social Citizenship, and Legal Activism3 show, many fail to see how those rights are infringed by the existence of poverty. This failure to see can also be observed in Canadian courts: for example, Gosselin v. Quebec (Attorney General),4 the very case that instigated Poverty, illustrates how the courts have resisted using the Charterto protect economic and social rights or to hold governments accountable for policies that per- petuate poverty. Within Canadian society, one can easily observe a divide * B.A. Hons. (UBC), M.A. (SFU), L.L.B. (UVIC 2009).

  • Is the Rule of Law the Golden Rule? Accessing “Justice” for Canada’S Poor
    IS THE RULE OF LAW THE GOLDEN RULE? ACCESSING “JUSTICE” FOR CANADA’S POOR Kerri A. Froc* This article argues that in order for poor people to benefit from the right to access justice under the unwritten constitutional principle of the rule of law, courts must recognize that the rule of law permits a normative evaluation of the content of laws supported and informed by express Charter rights. Traditional criticisms of the boundless nature of the rule of law under such a construct can be foreclosed by grounding the rule of 2009 CanLIIDocs 143 law in a requirement that law promotes justice. The author undertakes an extensive critique of the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision in British Columbia (Attorney General) v. Christie, and maintains that despite recent setbacks, possibilities remain for the rule of law to fulfill Dugald Christie’s quest of making the law accessible to the poor. Dans cet article, l'auteure maintient d'abord que pour permettre aux personnes démunies et à faible revenu de bénéficier d'un droit d'accès à la justice qui serait garanti par le principe constitutionnel non écrit de la primauté du droit, les tribunaux doivent reconnaître que la primauté du droit permet de faire une évaluation normative du contenu des lois par une utilisation des droits expressément garantis par la Charte. L'auteure affirme aussi que les critiques traditionnelles sur la trop grande portée qu'aurait la règle de la primauté du droit, ainsi interprétée, peuvent être contrées en justifiant celle-ci par la nécessité pour le droit de promouvoir la justice.

  • Rule of Law, the Remuneration Reference, and Access to Justice
    A Matter of Integrity: Rule of Law, the Remuneration Reference, and Access to Justice by C. Christian Morey A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Laws (LL.M.) Graduate Department of the Faculty of Law University of Toronto © Copyright by C. Christian Morey (2014) A Matter of Integrity: Rule of Law, the Remuneration Reference, and Access to Justice Christian Morey Master of Laws (LL.M.) Faculty of Law University of Toronto 2014 Abstract Under what circumstances should unwritten constitutional principles affect the validity of ordinary legislation? In this paper, the author reviews the jurisprudence of the Supreme Court of Canada in cases applying the unwritten constitutional principles of judicial independence and the rule of law. Based on this review, the author criticizes the Court's decision to use unwritten principles to invalidate ordinary legislation in a case relating to the remuneration of judges, but not in cases relating to “access to justice”. The author argues that the courts should recognize and enforce a negative duty on the part of government to avoid imposing barriers to access to justice, understood as both access to the courts and access to legal services. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my thesis supervisor, Professor David Dyzenhaus, for his invaluable insights and feedback. In addition, I would like to thank the members of the University of Toronto Faculty of Law for the opportunity to learn and develop my understanding of these important issues over the course of the past year. This paper is dedicated to my family, with love and gratitude, for all their encouragement and support.

    The Honourable Bertha Wilson Remembering a distinguished alumna Dalhousie Law School Hearsay 2007 1 Message from the Dean Each September, in the very first class our new law students attend at Dalhousie, I take some time to speak about the origins of the Law School and, in particular, the vision of Dean Richard Weldon. As I explain what we all know as the Weldon Tradition of public service, the simple yet powerful idea that the profession of law brings with it an obligation to contribute to the wider community, I confess that I On the COver: Portrait of the Honourable Bertha Wilson, 1999, by Mary sometimes wonder whether some of them view this with Lennox Hourd.

Fortunately, it is easy for me to put such thoughts aside, for too many of our students go on to prove, both at law school and afterwards, that they accept and fully live up to the Weldon Tradition. This issue of Hearsay brought this home to me in a very forceful way, as I read the many stories of exceptional contributions by our students and alumni, Hearsay and I know that John Yogis and Karen Kavanaugh had to The Dalhousie Law School Alumni Magazine leave many others for another day, due to the simple Volume 30 / Summer 2007 constraints of space.
