The Tenth Justice : Judicial Appointments, Marc Nadon, and the Supreme Court Act Reference Hardback
by Carissima Mathen, Michael Plaxton
Part of the Landmark Cases in Canadian Law series
Hardback
Description
The process by which Supreme Court judges are appointed is traditionally a quiet affair, but this certainly wasn't the case when Prime Minister Stephen Harper selected Justice Marc Nadon - a federal court judge - for appointment to Canada's highest court.
Here, for the first time, is the complete story of "the Nadon Reference" - one of the strangest sagas in Canadian legal history.
The Tenth Justice offers a detailed analysis of the background, issues surrounding, and legacy of the Reference re Supreme Court Act, ss 5 and 6.
