message: Should this be merged back into the Notable litigation of Apple Computer article? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Psantora (talk • contribs) 9 May 2006.
:I don't think so, because it seems to be an important case in Canadian law and the folks in that WikiProject probably want it kept seperate.

Talk:Chamberlain v Surrey School District No 36

message: "A majority of the Surrey District School Board, including chair Mary Polak, and trustees Heather Stilwell, Robert Pickering, Gary Tymoschuk, Shawn Wilson, Kim Evoy and Pam Glass, voted to deny the requested approval."
Something is wrong with this. The board had seven trustees (six plus a chair) and we know from James Chamberlain's article on EGALE that it was a 4-2 vote (whereby the chair would probably vote only to split a tie). The way it is written suggests that all seven voted to ban the books which would then not be correct. Two of those listed must have voted to allow the books yet I have no idea which two. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Esptoronto (talk • contribs) 10:28, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Canadian Foundation for Children, Youth and the Law v Canada (AG)

message: This article correctly states that the SCC failed to strike down S.43 of the Criminal Code. However, it did require that the law did not apply to teachers, thereby outlawing corporal punishment in Canadian schools. This is not a trivial outcome of this case, and should be included in this article. 66.241.130.86 (talk) 14:17, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: Yeah.  The problem is twofold (1) I've got the book (my ex-girlfriend gave it to me) and although it gives a good overview of the whole of the modern preservation scene, and its entries are at the level we're aiming at, it's not really an academic work (hardly any older photos), and it doesn't go into any further detail that the reader requires.  Also, it's not specifically about this class.  I could also try to reference The New Observer's Book of British Steam Locomotives which I also have and that is bit different, but still pretty much the same. Dunc|☺ 18:37, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  I merely quoted the source that I used. The whole point of Wikipedia is that people can come up with something better. Chevin 08:39, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  No, the idea of Wikipedia is to write an introduction to the subject.  If readers are interested they can then go out and buy the books mentioned in the references section.  That book is not useful in that sense.  It is a reasonable introduction to British locomotive design, but it isn't going to tell the modeller whether (say) the leading pony truck has brakes on or not.  We're never going to get to the level of Jenkinson & Essery; I am probably the most knowledgeable around here and I know diddlysquat compared to some people I know.  There might be a book on these engines coming out by Bob Essery, David Hunt et al, with the Derby drawing office drawings in as part of their Midland Engines series, but I know not of a book on this class specifically, which is what should be mentioned.

replies: text:  Well mention it here then, if you must, not on the page itself.  It's not further reading if it doesn't tell you any more that's in the article.  It's not a good reference unless it's authoratative, and two A5 pages in a flowery book, most of which are pictures are not anywhere near  or atleast getting there.

If  someone was able to find more accurate information from a better book they could substitute it (unless I was quoting someone verbatim, in which copyright fair use would be involved). 
Of course there is a limit to the detail in each article - some of the scientific pages are models for incomprehensibilty - but they should have a little depth, like hinting why some designs of loco were better for some applications than others, why certain courses of action were taken or persisted with.

Talk:Reference Re BC Motor Vehicle Act

message: --Judicial Activism--
CanadianCaesar deleted my contribution on the impact of the decision on judicial activism. While it was not perfect, don't you think such a section is necessary as this case is often taken as a key example of judicial activism by the supreme court.70.80.73.22 22:21, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have to agree with CanadianCaesar's deletion. The issue you've identified is a valid and interesting one. The way you're described the issue is what's problematic. Firstly, the label "judicial activism" is such a deeply loaded word that it is usually unhelpful and can be extremely hard to use while maintaining NPOV. Also, your contribution made a number of major claims none of which were cited and hinted of original research. The best way to tackle this issue is to view the academic literature on both sides of this issue, rather than make vague claims to public opinion on the result. While what Lamer did may not have been "right", it was not unheard of or completely radical. In this case, it seems he may have been following a textualist or strict constructionist approach to interpretation. We may not agree on these doctrines but they are not illegitimate. A proper treatment should not try to argue that Lamer was wrong. Intead it would consider what his judicial philosophy was and what academics have to say for and against it. --PullUpYourSocks 13:58, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
Talk:R v Vaillancourt

message: removed: 
Section 213(d) of the Criminal Code of Canada did not violate ss. 7 or 11(d) of the charter, and therefore, was not saved by ss. 1. Although s. 213(d) challenged individual liberty and security of person under ss. 7, it did so in accordance with fundamental justice. RSC 1985, c 27 (1st Supp) s 40(2).
This needs to be expanded or explained because it seems to contradict the court's finding. Eg was there a subsequent decision that overruled the present case?

Talk:Reference Re Manitoba Language Rights

message: Surely this article would be better if mentioned the origin of this case, namely a lawyer named George Forest who in 1976 got a parking ticket and complained that it was illegal as the ticket was only in English. The Manitoba Act which created the province all the way back in 1870 stated that English and French were the official languages of Manitoba at a time when the Metis were still the majority in Manitoba. The authorities told Forest to shut up and just pay your damned parking ticket. But Forest did not, saying the parking ticket should had been in both French and English, and went to the courts to argue that this parking ticket was illegal. This caused almost a decade of litigation in the courts before the Supreme Court finally ruled in 1985 that yes, because of the Manitoba Act, that this parking ticket should had indeed been bilingual and was therefore illegal, so Mr. Forest shouldn't had to pay it. So because of that ruling, all government documents in Manitoba have to in both French and English, and if by-law officer in Manitoba gives you a parking ticket only in English, you don't have to pay it because it is illegal. I don't know much this Mr. Forest spent in litigation to prove his point, but it must had costed considerably more than his parking ticket. --A.S. Brown (talk) 03:35, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

replies: text: I am going to go ahead and change the article to remove the real names.

replies: text: (This should probably be on the talk page of that article, but I'll reply here for now.) I think removing the names due to a verifiability issue, combined with BLP issues was the best solution. In terms of the application of the YCJA, it's Canadian law and does not apply to Wikipedia which is bound by US law.  As per Wikipedia:Publication bans, there's a lot less law in the US on publication bans, but there may be a relevant Wikipedia policy for the specific context.
