Description: "Securities Law in Canada, 2nd Edition, provides a solid grounding in the basic principles and practical operation of Canadian securities law, and guides the reader through legal developments in the area within the context of a broader debate about the role played by securities markets.

Three major themes of this work include (1) an assessment of the level of harmonization or divergence of provincial securities law across Canada, in view of the intense interest in the topic of harmonization at the present time; (2) reflection on the increasing significance of norms and rules of securities regulation to corporate governance in Canada; and (3) discussion of the broad scope of the regulatory power to administer law in this area.

The second edition of Securities Law in Canada covers recent amendments relating to exemptions, corporate governance, civil liability, and take-over bids. It also examines recent cases such as Kerr v. Danier (SCC), R v. Felderhof and the Rankin line of cases."--Pub. desc.
