This is a collection of Canadian legal decisions, primarily from the Supreme Court of Canada, along with international cases that have bearing on Canadian law. The selected cases raise and respond to current and controversial issues in political and legal philosophy. Cases have been edited to present key legal principles and methods of judicial reasoning in action, showing not only what was decided but also how the decisions were made. Topics include: constitutional law, fundamental freedoms, equality rights, civil and criminal responsibility, and sovereignty. This new fifth edition adds over two dozen new cases, including new sections on Indigenous issues and international law. A helpful glossary of common legal terms has also been added as an appendix.

Keith Culver is Professor of Management at the University of British Columbia, Okanagan Campus. Michael Giudice is Associate Professor of Philosophy at York University. Jerome Bickenbach is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, and Professor of Health Sciences at the University of Lucerne, Switzerland.
