Roy Adams sends along word of a great new website he has developed that follows up on a conference he hosted at the University of Saskatchewan last February that explored the state of freedom of association under Canadian law.
Here is the link to the website, which I will add to my Blogroll. The site includes a variety of great papers and follow up discussion flowing from the conference. There are papers by leading academics (Roy Adams, Bernie Adell, Michel Coutu, Larry Haiven, Ken Norman, Patricia Hughes, among others), labour lawyers (Peter Barnacle, Steve Barrett, Kevin Koon, Paula Turtle and others), union leaders (Derek Fudge, James Clancy and others), and government lawyers and policy professionals (Robin Basu, Anthony Giles).
It will take some time to read through these papers, but the papers and the website are a valuable addition to the ongoing debates about the reinvention of the Freedom of Association under the Charter that the Supreme Court embarked on beginning with Dunmore 10 years ago and continuing soon with the release of the Court’s decision in Fraser v. Ontario (A.G.), which was argued several months ago.
