''Chartier v Chartier'', 1999 1 S.C.R. 242 is a leading Canadian case decided by the Supreme Court of Canada on the legal role of step parents in a marriage. The Court held that a step parent who is found to be in loco parentis cannot unilaterally withdraw from the family relationship. Background In 1991, Gerald Chartier married to Sharon Chartier, with whom he had been in a relationship since 1989, and with whom he had a daughter, Jeena, who was born a year prior.

Arsenault-Cameron V Prince Edward Island
''Arsenault-Cameron v Prince Edward Island'', 0001 S.C.R. 3, 2000 SCC 1, is a landmark Supreme Court of Canada decision on minority language rights. The Court found that the numbers of Francophone children in Summerside, Prince Edward Island warranted French-language education in Summerside, under section 23 of the ''Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms'', and the province was constitutionally obligated to create a French language school. Background A number of Francophone families living in Summerside made a request to the French Language Board to build a French-language school in the community rather than bus the children to the closest French school 57 minutes away. The Board made a proposal to the Minister which was rejected. The family applied for a declaration against the province to build a school in Summerside. At trial the declaration was granted but was overturned on appeal. In the decision of ''Arsenault-Cameron v. Prince Edward Island'', 9993 S.C.R. 851, prior t ...

Renaud V Quebec (Commission Des Affaires Sociales)
Renaud Pierre Manuel Séchan (), known as Renaud (), born 11 May 1952, is a French singer, songwriter and actor. His characteristically 'broken' voice makes for a very distinctive vocal style. Several of his songs are popular classics in France, including the sea tale "Dès que le vent soufflera", the irreverent "Laisse béton", the ballad "Morgane de toi" and the nostalgic "Mistral gagnant". However, with the exception of a recording of "Miss Maggie" in English and a franglais recording of "It is not because you are", his work is little known outside the French-speaking world. Career Early work Fresh out of school, Renaud was determined to become an actor. By chance he met the actor Patrick Dewaere and was invited to join the company of the comedy theatre Café de la Gare, which had recently been founded by Patrick Dewaere, Coluche, and Miou-Miou. His early work is characterized by a volatile temperament, innovative use of French, and edgy, dark, leftist social and politi ...

Guarantee Co Of North America V Gordon Capital Corp
Guarantee is a legal term more comprehensive and of higher import than either warranty or "security". It most commonly designates a private transaction by means of which one person, to obtain some trust, confidence or credit for another, engages to be answerable for them. It may also designate a treaty through which claims, rights or possessions are secured. It is to be differentiated from the colloquial "personal guarantee" in that a guarantee is a legal concept which produces an economic effect. A personal guarantee by contrast is often used to refer to a promise made by an individual which is supported by, or assured through, the word of (speak enough) the individual. In the same way, a guarantee produces a legal effect wherein one party affirms the promise of another (usually to pay) by promising to themselves pay if default occurs. At law, the giver of a guarantee is called the surety or the "guarantor". The person to whom the guarantee is given is the creditor or the "oblige ...

''Delisle v Canada (Deputy AG)'', 9992 SCR 989 is a Supreme Court of Canada decision on the freedom of association guarantee under section 2(d) of the '' Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms''.

R V G(B)
''R v G'' 003is an English criminal law ruling on reckless damage. For which various offences it held that the prosecution must show a defendant subjectively appreciated a particular risk existing or going to exist to the health or property of another, and the damaging consequence, but carried on in the circumstances known to him unreasonably (to this latter stage of thought an objective test continues to apply) taking the risk. It abolished the "objective recklessness" test set out in '' R v Caldwell''. Facts Two boys, aged 11 and 12 years, were camping without their parents' permission when they entered the back yard of a shophouse, the co-op, of Newport Pagnell in the early hours of the morning.

R V Stone
''R v Stone'', 9992 S.C.R. 290 is a leading Supreme Court of Canada decision on the use of the defence of automatism in a criminal trial. Background In 1993, Bert Stone married Donna Stone and they lived together in the Okanagan Valley. He had previously been married two other times and had teenage children from his second marriage. Their relationship was a difficult one, where he was charged with physical abuse after previously trying to run Donna over in a parking lot in Winfield, BC. In 1994 he made arrangements to make a business trip to Vancouver and visit his son without telling his wife. When she found out what he planned to do, she insisted on going with him.

Corbiere V Canada (Minister Of Indian And Northern Affairs)
''Corbiere v Canada (Minister of Indian and Northern Affairs)'' 9992 S.C.R. 203, is a leading case from the Supreme Court of Canada where the Court expanded the scope of applicable grounds upon which a section 15(1) Charter claim can be based. This was also the first case to use the framework proposed by ''Law v. Canada''. Background Members of the Batchewana Indian Band, on behalf of themselves and all other non-resident members of the band, sought a declaration that section 77(1) of the ''Indian Act'' violates section 15(1) of the Charter. The section of the ''Indian Act'' states that only band members "ordinary resident" on the reserve be permitted in order to vote in the band elections even though only one third of the registered members live on the reserve. Court's ruling The court unanimously agreed with the Court of Appeal's ruling that the Act violated section 15(1) of the Charter. However, the Court was split 5 to 4 on the proper application of the test. The major ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
