Upon the 20-year anniversary of the Reference re Remuneration of Judges of the Provincial Court of Prince Edward Island and the Reference re Secession of Quebec, the author reflects on the methodology utilized by the Supreme Court of Canada to reach dramatic conclusions on the basis of unwritten constitutional principles in these cases. An analysis of several decisions leading up to the Judges Reference and the Secession Reference establish a pattern of reasoning from the abstract to the concrete, from unwritten principle to unwritten rule. However, these decisions lack in methodological self-reflection as they utilize unwritten principles to reach particular outcomes without situating the analysis in a larger interpretive framework. The author seeks to clarify this uncertainty by suggesting a methodological framework entitled “reasoning from constitutional essentials.” This methodology can assist in understanding the analytical framework used by courts to identify and reach conclusions on the basis of unwritten constitutional principles.

There is currently a gap in Canadian empirical research examining the impacts of legal representation in legal aid and clinic settings. This article advocates for addressing the research gap and suggests how such research could be pursued. Empirical data is crucial to making the case for ongoing investments in publicly funded legal assistance and to ensuring the effectiveness of such assistance. Yet current research, mainly from American studies, tends to focus narrowly on litigation outcomes. This leaves many aspects of the impact of legal representation unclear, particularly regarding service delivery for vulnerable and marginalized clients. Research must examine clients’ own experiences and perspectives of legal processes so as to better reflect the complex relationship between legal representation and justice.

With the release of the Ontario Court of Appeal’s decision in Paton Estate, the possibility was left open for a casino to be found to owe a duty of care to patrons who gamble excessively. This article explores the circumstances under which the Anns/Cooper framework could be applied to find that such a duty exists. Specifically, where the gambler is a member of a casino’s customer loyalty program, thereby imputing knowledge of extreme gambling behaviour on the casino, and where the casino has no reason to believe the patron’s losses are sustainable, a duty of care should be imposed. Liability should follow in cases where the casino knowingly contributed to or deliberately ignored these losses.

The challenges that non-settlement Métis communities continue to face when attempting to enforce the duty to consult are reflected in the 2016 Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench Fort Chipewyan decision. In Fort Chipewyan, the Court appeared to require representative authority in order to trigger the duty to consult, effectively adding a new step to the Haida test for Aboriginal consultation. This creates a unique burden for non-settlement Métis communities in Alberta, in part because their governance systems are not statutorily recognized in Canadian statute. Nevertheless, a representative authority requirement, if interpreted purposively and in accordance with Indigenous principles of good governance, is justified by the Honour of the Crown. The Métis Nation of Ontario’s approach to consultation governance provides suggestions for governance reforms that could be undertaken by Alberta Métis to more effectively enforce the duty to consult.
