Constitutional Law is that department of jurisprudence which relates to the system of government of a country, and Canadian Constitutional Law is that particular division of Constitutional Law which relates to the system of government prevailing in the Dominion and the Provinces of Canada. Constitutional Law is an important part of law in Canada, because it facilitates the inquiry into what Imperial laws are in force in Canada, and enables one to fix the definite limitations of the various authorities that have power to enact legislation operative in Canada. There are three great authorities which have power to enact such legislation, and they are the following: --1. The Imperial Parliament, 2. The Canadian Parliament, and 3. The Provincial Legislatures, including the lawenacting bodies of the Canadian Territories and the other organized parts of Canada. The first of these authorities has unlimited powers;1 while from it the others derive their entire jurisdiction. Within their limits these other authorities are supreme; and are also entirely independent of one another; and any one of them cannot, with certain exceptions (to be hereinafter specified--e.g., Insolvency and Agriculture), infringe upon the jurisdiction of any other. 1 Re Goodhue, 19 Gr. 366 at pp. 382 et seq. (1872) The great function of Canadian Constitutional Law is twofold: --First; to aid in the inquiry into what Imperial enactments are in force in Canada, and Second; to aid in determining whether a statute passed by any legislative body in Canada is or is not within the power of that body to enact. Where a statute is within the legislative competence of the law-making body which enacts it, it is constitutional, or as is technically.

A History of Law in Canada, Vol. 1 by Philip Girard,Jim Phillips,R. Blake Brown Pdf
A History of Law in Canada is the first of two volumes. Volume one begins at a time just prior to European contact and continues to the 1860s, while volume two will start with Confederation and end at approximately 2000. The history of law includes substantive law, legal institutions, legal actors, and legal culture. The authors assume that since 1500 there have been three legal systems in Canada - the Indigenous, the French, and the English. At all times, these systems have co-existed and interacted, with the relative power and influence of each being more or less dominant in different periods. The history of law cannot be treated in isolation, and this book examines law as a dynamic process, shaped by and affecting other histories over the long term. The law guided and was guided by economic developments, was influenced and moulded by the nature and trajectory of political ideas and institutions, and variously exacerbated or mediated intercultural exchange and conflict. These themes are apparent in this examination, and through most areas of law including land settlement and tenure, and family, commercial, constitutional, and criminal law.

Canadian Constitutional History and Law (Classic Reprint) by Albert Richard Hassard Pdf
Excerpt from Canadian Constitutional History and Law For the half century immediately succeeding d Roberval's failure, Canada was all but forgotten by France. Torn by her religious wars France could not afford to look beyond her own borders. It is true that for commercial purposes the connection between the two countries never ceased. The vessels of private merchants came regularly to Newfoundland to fish and trade in furs and skins; but nothing was done towards settling and governing Canada As the century closed attention was again turned towards Canada. In 1598, the titles and privileges of de Roberval were transferred to a nobleman of Brittany, the Marquis de la Roche, by the French king, Henry IV. Henceforth we have a continuous line of trading companies and Royal Lieutenants operating in the country. It may be said, there fore, that with this event, the Constitutional History of ('anadn begins. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Oxford Handbook of the Canadian Constitution by Peter Oliver,Patrick Macklem,Nathalie Des Rosiers Pdf
The Oxford Handbook of the Canadian Constitution provides an ideal first stop for Canadians and non-Canadians seeking a clear, concise, and authoritative account of Canadian constitutional law. The Handbook is divided into six parts: Constitutional History, Institutions and Constitutional Change, Aboriginal Peoples and the Canadian Constitution, Federalism, Rights and Freedoms, and Constitutional Theory. Readers of this Handbook will discover some of the distinctive features of the Canadian constitution: for example, the importance of Indigenous peoples and legal systems, the long-standing presence of a French-speaking population, French civil law and Quebec, the British constitutional heritage, the choice of federalism, as well as the newer features, most notably the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, Section Thirty-Five regarding Aboriginal rights and treaties, and the procedures for constitutional amendment. The Handbook provides a remarkable resource for comparativists at a time when the Canadian constitution is a frequent topic of constitutional commentary. The Handbook offers a vital account of constitutional challenges and opportunities at the time of the 150th anniversary of Confederation.
