Abstract
Thank you very much to the University of New Brunswick's Faculty of Law for the invitation to deliver this lecture, and for the warm hospitality I received. I am honoured to deliver this lecture named in memory of Ivan C Rand. I know Justice Rand had a varied and brilliant legal career, having been an Attorney General, a Supreme Court judge, and dean of law. For these reasons I hope he would have sympathized with the enterprise I embark on this evening. That enterprise is to reflect on the disconnect between the way securities law is taught in Canadian law schools and the evolving practice of securities regulation itself. I have taught securities law at Osgoode Hall Law School for 15 years and recently became a practising regulator. I find it puzzling that what I teach as part of the core securities curriculum bears relatively little relationship to the questions preoccupying regulators in real time. Throughout this talk I want to explore the nature of this disconnect and how we might begin to correct it.
