Summer Break Time. Here's the Most Read Posts from Last Year.

It’s mid July, and time for my annual summer holiday from this blog.  I will be back in the fall IMG_0250-150x150with a new group of students having now completed my very productive sabbatical year at the University of Toronto.  My thanks to the Law School, and the Centre for Industrial Relations and Human Resources Management.
My main project for the upcoming year is Part One of my new book, dealing with the Common Law of Work.  This book project will ultimately include three Parts: Part Two deals with Government Regulation of Work, and Part Three Collective Bargaining Law.  Part One could be out by next summer, and will be available in hard copy or in a great electronic version that will interact with this website. The other two parts will follow until the three part series is complete.
Have a great summer.  Here is a list of my Top Ten Posts from the past 12 months.  These are the most read posts since last July, though some of them are from earlier periods.  I find these lists give a flavour of the big issues over a period of time.  A theme in this year’s list was government attacks on trade unions and collective bargaining rights, a theme likely to continue in the years to come no doubt:
1.   Senior Tory Senator Lambasts Conservatives for Politically Motivated Attacks on Unions (8,800 hits)
2.  Teachers Boycott Volunteer Work: The Legal Issues (8,100 hits)
3.  Are Unpaid Interns Illegal in Canada? (7000 hits)
4.  Does Bill 115 Void Itself? (6,300)
5.  Moxies: Where ‘Uglies’ Need Not Apply?  (3,000)
6. Bill C-377: The Conservative’s Private Member’s Bill on Union Transparency (2700)
7. Can an Employer Prohibit Tattoos and Piercings? (2,100)
8. Can a Nonunin Employer Suspend an Employee without Pay? (2100)
9. Repealing the Rand Formula Might Weaken Unions, But it Won’t Create New Jobs (2000)
10. Reflecting on the Rand Formula as Ontario’s Tories Target Their Union Foes (1900)
See you in the fall!
