Critics Review
“Why, when, and how courts make policy is not only grist for law faculties and practitioners. Public policy effects change in Canada – and occasionally that change is truly uncharted…The questions posed in this book are fundamental.”
- Michael Bryant (Literary Review of Canada, Vol 27, no. 2)“The case studies in this text are fascinating and provide insight into how changes in public policy have (or have not) come into effect.”
- Julie Hetherington-Field, Norton Rose Fulbright Canada (Canadian Law Library Review)Emmett Macfarlane
