I posted a paper earlier this year by Professor Brian Langille (Toronto) published in the Dalhousie Law Journal entitled Why the Right-Freedom Distinction Matters to Labour Lawyers–And to All Canadians.
Earlier, I had posted a paper by Professor Ewing (Kings College, London) and Professor Alan Bogg (Oxford) that critiques the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision in Ontario v. Fraser and Brian Langille’s approach to freedom of association. This is labour law scholarship of the highest order, and both papers are deserving of a careful read.
Brian’s paper was presented as the Keynote Address at the 2nd Annual Innis Christie Lecture at Dal Law School. I just became aware that the lecture was videotaped. It’s a fantastic talk, and brings the paper to life, making some very complex concepts understandable to an audience of labour lawyers as well as non-lawyers. I love this stuff.
