Abstract

This panel will discuss two significant cases decided in 2021 that speak to the subject of jurisdiction. From a series of perspectives, panelists will examine the division of powers analyses on offer in the References re Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act by looking historically at the case, more deeply into the recent jurisprudence on federalism, by analyzing the national concern doctrine, and posing important questions about climate change and the constitution. The panel will also discuss the important decision of R. v. Desautel, which considered the recognition of constitutionally protected Aboriginal Rights under s.35(1) rights beyond the borders of the Canadian state that arise based on the prior occupation of Aboriginal societies.
