As part of the Law Day events, the Law Reform Com­ mission of Canada, in co-operation with the Canadian Bar Association, organizes an annual Law Day dinner in Ottawa, and invites the general public to come and meet and exchange ideas with members of the legal profession. This year over 350 members of the public attended the dinner which was held at the Congress Centre in Ottawa.

Special guests included the Minister of Justice, the Honourable Ray Hnatyshyn and Madam Justice Claire L'Heureux­ Dube of the Supreme Court of Canada. One of the highlights of the evening was the announcement by Madam Justice L'Heureux-Dube of the recipients of the third annual Scales of Justice Awards.

The Ontario Court of Appeal cited our work in two interesting cases this year. In R. v. Kopyto (1987), 62 O.R.

Study Papers Often before a Working Paper is pub­ lished, background information, in the form of a Study Paper, is accumulated through research and empirical stu?ies. Many of these studies are not pubhshed but are catalogued in our library. How­ ever, a select number of these papers which convey valuable, original, topi.cal material, are published by the CommIs­ sion. It should be noted however, that the views expressed in these papers remain those of the author and not of the Com­ mission.

The Commission reported on its 1986-87 activities under the theme' 'A fresh start in administrative law".
