Description

This book is an innovative work on the scope of judicial decision-making in Canada. Boundaries of Judicial Review: The Law of Justiciability in Canada, 2nd Edition explores the restrictions on which matters courts may decide and which are moot, hypothetical, political in nature or not yet ripe for a decision. A necessary book for practitioners whose work involves constitutional or administrative matters, it addresses questions such as:

  • When will a matter be dealt with in the courts?
  • When will a matter be decided in the legislature or by the executive branch of the government?
  • Which disputes should appropriately be before a judge?
  • Is an issue too premature, complex, vague or hypothetical to be decided by a court?

The 2nd edition of Boundaries of Judicial Review: The Law of Justiciability in Canada has been fully updated, reflecting recent developments relating to climate change and foreign relations and controversies over national security and the war against terrorism.
