{"product_id":"quasi-constitutional-laws-of-canada","title":"Quasi-constitutional Laws of Canada","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eAs the first book dedicated to quasi-constitutional laws in Canada, this work provides a much-needed overview of the elements that unite the various rights-protecting laws that have received this designation from the Supreme Court of Canada. These laws comprise several categories of federal and provincial statutes, including human rights, access-to-information, privacy, language rights, and the traditional civil liberties, as well as a common law principle. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eQuasi-constitutional Laws of Canada\u003c\/i\u003e addresses the legal impact and theory of quasi-​constitutionality for both a professional and an academic audience. It provides a useful roadmap for practitioners who routinely work with these statutes by engaging with the defining legal characteristics of quasi-​constitutionality. This includes a special interpretative approach and the primacy of quasi-constitutional legislation over regular statutes. Academic readers will likewise be interested in the legal impact of quasi-constitutionality, since the ability to use quasi-constitutional statutes to declare conflicting legislation inoperable has received limited attention compared to orders of invalidity under the Canadian \u003ci\u003eCharter of Rights and Freedoms\u003c\/i\u003e. This book addresses theoretical questions concerning the relationship of quasi-constitutional laws with both regular legislation and the Constitution, and it provides a comparative analysis situating quasi-constitutional laws in Canada within the development of the weak-form model of constitutionalism and judicial review in the Commonwealth.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"John Helis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55108441047420,"sku":"9781552214947","price":57.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/4980\/0541\/files\/9781552214947.jpg?v=1744374205","url":"https:\/\/combined-academic.myshopify.com\/products\/quasi-constitutional-laws-of-canada","provider":"Combined Academic Publishers - Mare Nostrum Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
