We've just published a new special issue of the Constitutional Forum on the Canadian Supreme Court's recent (and consistently contentious) jurisprudence on the relationship between criminal sentencing and various Charter rights. Check it out here: www.constitutionalstudies.ca/2024/10/cons...

Every year our centre, @centreconststud.bsky.social, hires three JD students to write articles on constitutional issues and produce a podcast series. We capped off this year's program with a tour of the Alberta legislature — great way to end a wonderful summer working with wonderful people!

Excited for this talk by Prof Cheryl Misak (U of Toronto, Philosophy)!! Cheryl will be examining the view of law and its legitimacy that originates in the work of Oliver W Holmes and continues in the work of later thinkers like Dewey and Lewis.
