As a society, we value life, liberty and security of the person as core values worthy of constitutional protection. When government officials interfere with these core values, the call to publically account for that interference is understandably very significant. In 2011, the RCMP reported the results of a poll that revealed many Canadians still had confidence in the RCMP; however, confidence levels were quite low in western Canada where a number of recent incidents attracted negative attention to the police force (CBC News, 2011a).

  • Equal Parenting Vote to Test Pc-Mpp-To-Be Sam Oosterhoff
    EQUAL PARENTING VOTE TO TEST PC-MPP-TO-BE SAM OOSTERHOFF Equal parenting vote to test PC-MPP-to-be Sam Oosterhoff 18.11.2016 Jessica Smith Cross A bill to expand rights for same-sex parents may be the first litmus test of young PC MPP-elect Sam Oosterhoff. Oosterhoff was elected in Niagara West-Glanbrook Thursday night with 54 per cent of the votes. Immediately after his victory, Oosterhoff was faced with conflicting demands for his vote on Bill 28, the Equal Parenting Act. His leader, Patrick Brown, told the media the PC caucus will vote in favour of the bill, while a social conservative group that supported Oosterhoff in the campaign called on him to vote against. Oosterhoff himself declined to make a commitment, when confronted by the press. As the votes were being counted Thursday evening, Oosterhoff’s lead was strong enough that he and Brown gave victory speeches before more than half the polls were in. When they stepped away from the podium they were mobbed by reporters full of questions about Oosterhoff’s socially conservative beliefs — and how they might conflict with Brown’s socially progressive vision of the party. Bill 28 was ordered for third reading earlier this month and Oosterhoff will be in the legislature when it comes to a vote. The bill is complex, and amends numerous pieces of legislation, to ensure the legal status of parents, including same-sex parents, whether they are biologically related to their child or not, and whether their children were conceived with or without reproductive assistance, without having to go through the adoption process.

  • 621 Regulation in Canada
    RISK REGULATION FOR THE LEGAL PROFESSION 621 RISK REGULATION FOR THE LEGAL PROFESSION ADAM DODEK* AND EMILY ALDERSON** This article explores the current state of Canadian legal services regulation and changes that are impacting it. The authors argue that the only legitimate purpose for legal services regulation is the protection of the public interest, and this goal is best achieved through risk regulation. The article discusses four roles risk plays in regulation: as an object of, and justification for, regulation, as an organizing principle, and as a measure of accountability. It includes practical examples and comparisons to other jurisdictions and professions. Finally, the authors recognize that substantial changes will be required to shift to a risk regulation regime for legal services, but that such a change is necessary. TABLE OF CONTENTS I.
