This special summer issue covers a spate of recent decisions from the Supreme Court of Canada on hot topics relating to administrative law, including:

• Refining and reconsidering Doré and Charter values (TWU)
• Judicial review of law society findings of incivility (Groia)
• Casting doubt on the contextual approach and true questions of jurisdiction (CHRC)
• Judicial review of regulation-making power (West Fraser Mills)
• Judicial review of private associations (Wall)

(We will review decisions from the Divisional Court, Ontario Court of Appeal and Federal Courts in our August issue – stay tuned!)

In quashing the appeal, the Divisional Court confirmed that s. 9 of the Securities Act does not provide a right to appeal an interlocutory decision.  Similarly, in quashing the judicial review, the Court clarified that determinations of solicitor-client privilege do not give rise to an “exceptional circumstance” and thus an exception to the application of the prematurity doctrine (which states that judicial review is not permissible until the merits of the matter have been finally determined, but for in exceptional circumstances).

A link to the decision is here.
