  • The Interpretation of Bijural Or Harmonized Federal Legislation: Schreiber V
    Case Comment Commentaire d’arrêt THE INTERPRETATION OF BIJURAL OR HARMONIZED FEDERAL LEGISLATION: SCHREIBER V. CANADA (A.G.) Aline Grenon* Although the Schreiber affair1 gained considerable attention in the general media, court decisions in 19982 and 20023 relating to the matter have been the subject of limited commentary in legal circles. The following comment addresses the 2002 decision, specifically, the issue of the interpretation of bijural or harmonized federal legislation. The facts in Schreiber v. Canada (A.G.) are straightforward.4 A German court issued a warrant for the arrest of Schreiber, a Canadian citizen, for tax evasion and other offences. Germany then requested that Canada extradite him under the provisions of the extradition treaty between Canada and Germany. Schreiber was duly arrested and spent eight days in prison until released on bail. He commenced an action in Ontario against Germany and the Attorney General of Canada seeking damages for personal injuries suffered as a result of his arrest and detention. Germany brought a motion requesting that the action be dismissed on the basis that it was immune from the jurisdiction of Canadian courts pursuant to the State Immunity Act (SIA).5 The Attorney General of Canada also brought a motion requesting a stay of the action pending the determination of proceedings between the appellant and Germany. The Ontario Superior Court of Justice allowed both motions.6 The Court of Appeal unanimously dismissed the appeal * Professor, French Common Law Program, University of Ottawa. This comment was written while the author was on secondment with the Legislative Services Branch of the Department of Justice Canada.
