Congratulations to @cmathen for her (overdue) appointment to the bench. canada.ca/en/department-…
May Day as Victims of Communism Day - 2024. My case for making this change, but also openness to using a different date (e.g. Nov. 7) if a consensus can develop around it: reason.com/volokh/2024/05…
Whether or not any of the panellists talked about the online harms bill, the "symposium" was obviously political and deeply one sided. But people are upset that others noticed. A politicized GG does us no good, argues @colbycosh nationalpost.com/opinion/colby-… via @nationalpost
I'm honoured to be taking part in this symposium on the work of my friend and former colleague Allan Beever at @NCLLawSchool & @NorthumbriaLaw. Come if you can, and hear from serious private lawyers and, well, me.
I've argued that the Federal Court ruling ordering the federal government to fill judicial vacancies is badly flawed (doubleaspect.blog/2024/02/14/put…). But @mattgurney is right that its failure to fill the damned vacancies already is still a disgrace―with horrible impact on real people.

In Mitanidis, 2024 ONSC 1838, Myers J feels our pain: [5] Kevin Mitanidis submits that his father needs help in the complex world of administrative law and court proceedings. I accept that is true for most of us.
Call me old-fashioned, but I don't think the Chief Justice of Canada ought to be celebrating the fact that he is officially now a celebrity.

Am I being too curmudgeonly in thinking that this sort of thing is rather beneath the dignity of the office of Chief Justice of Canada?

For @DoubleAspect & @MarkPMancini, the proposed internet regulations are a throwback to an old philosophy of government that subverts fundamental constitutional principles: democracy, the separation of powers & the rule of law. macdonaldlaurier.ca/bureaucrats-sh…

There's growing acknowledgement that asking academics to write statements signing on to any value-laden abstraction, let alone a bundled trio of them as poorly defined as DEI, is coercive and antithetical to free inquiry, intellectual diversity, and pluralism.

In Mitanidis, 2024 ONSC 1838, Myers J feels our pain: [5] Kevin Mitanidis submits that his father needs help in the complex world of administrative law and court proceedings. I accept that is true for most of us.
Call me old-fashioned, but I don't think the Chief Justice of Canada ought to be celebrating the fact that he is officially now a celebrity.
Chief Justice Richard Wagner is honoured to be named one of Quebec’s 100 most influential people (article available only in French). lactualite.com/societe/le-pal…
@DoubleAspect This still pales in comparison to Wagner commissioning and installing a bronze bust of *himself* in the lobby of the SCC. That one's hard to top. But I agree.
@DoubleAspect no. i feel the same way. its fine that he's included by some list but the fact that its being officially endorsed is weird
Another big problem with C-63 (online harms): it hands even more power to the administrative state. “This way of doing things undermines parliamentary democracy” say @MarkPMancini & @DoubleAspect. “The people elected to make laws do not, in fact, make them in any meaningful way.”
