It is now the final court of appeal, the last judicial resort for all litigants, whether individual or governmental.

When handling Quebec civil law cases the court is careful to have them reviewed by the three civil law judges that are always on the court.

Binding or mandatory precedent is a precedent under the doctrine of stare decisis that a court must consider when deciding a case. Advisory precedent are cases which a court may use but is not required to use to decide its cases.

82. WWLIA/Canada/Law Offices/Supreme Court Of Canada For many years following Confederation, and in spite of the existence of a canadiansupreme court, the canadian government sustained a right to a final appeal http://www.islandnet.com/~wwlia/ca-supre.htm

Duhaime's LAWisdom: This web page is provided as a public service by the Victoria, British Columbia (Canada) law firm of The World Wide Legal Information Association "Making legal information available to the world." Return to the Law Offices or to Canada's Home Page. The Supreme Court of Canada The Supreme Court of Canada was created in 1857 by an Act of the Parliament of Canada, eight years after Confederation. It is not mentioned by name in the British North America Act (BNA, now formally known as the Constitution Act, 1867) but the BNA did give the federal government the power to establish a national court of final appeal. The Supreme Court began with only five judges and was increased to seven in 1927 and to nine in 1949, the current number. At least three must be from Quebec to ensure capability and quorum in dealing with civil law issues (Quebec has a civil law legal system; all other provinces have a common law system). In most cases, the Court will only hear appeals where they first grant permission. That means that you must first appear before three of the judges and explain to them, during a short audience, why your appeal is unique, special and worthy of their time (the Supreme Court is constantly bombarded with requests for appeal and must somehow control the flow; they only hear about 120 cases a year). If you are granted permission to appeal, then you have to prepare a factum which summarizes your legal arguments and sets out the facts of the case, as you see them. The other party also has to prepare a factum. The process is not quick and could easily take up to a year. The Court sits only in Ottawa although it can arrange for satellite hook-ups to hear arguments from other locations such as Vancouver. The Court does not sit during July, August and September, except for emergencies.

document.write(""); document.write(""); Supreme Court upholds spanking law Last Updated Fri, 30 Jan 2004 17:47:36 OTTAWA - Canada's top court has upheld a law allowing parents to spank their children, but also set guidelines outlining "reasonable limits" to the act. In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court of Canada refused to repeal Section 43 of the Criminal Code that allows parents and school teachers to physically discipline children in their care by using "reasonable" force. In its decision Friday, the court ruled that reasonable corrective force can be used against children between the ages of two and 12 years old. The court said it was unacceptable to hit a child with an object, like a belt or paddle. Blows and slaps to the child's head would also be unacceptable. For corporal punishment to be legally acceptable, it must involve only "minor corrective force of a transitory and trifling nature," the court ruled. INDEPTH: Spanking Ailsa Watkinson Ailsa Watkinson, the Saskatchewan mother who began the legal challenge nine years ago, said she was disappointed in Friday's ruling. "'Don't hit a child on the head, don't use a ruler, don't use a belt.' It seems so strange to me that we have to have a Supreme Court ruling setting those parameters," said Watkinson. "That just seems to be imminent good sense." "And that's the problem with Section 43. It still gives us outs. It still allows the idea and perpetuates the notion that children are second-class citizens."

Backgrounder Reference to the Supreme Court of Canada On June 10, the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled that the opposite-sex requirement for marriage is unconstitutional and directed that marriage in the province of Ontario be open to same-sex couples. The Court stated that its decision does not in any way deal or interfere with the religious institution of marriage. The Court ordered its decision to take effect immediately. The Ontario decision follows on a similar decision of the British Columbia Court of Appeal on May 1 of this year. Although the British Columbia decision originally gave Parliament until July 12, 2004, to change its legislation to fit this new definition, it lifted that suspension order on July 8, effectively allowing same-sex couples to marry in that province immediately. Another similar decision of the Quebec Superior Court allowed same-sex marriages effective September 2004. The Quebec case is still before the Quebec Court of Appeal. On June 17, 2003, the Prime Minister announced that the Government of Canada would not appeal the decisions of the courts of appeal in British Columbia and Ontario on the definition of marriage. On July 15, 2003, the Government of Canada also withdrew its appeal from the Quebec case.

Monsanto vs Schmeiser The Classic David vs Goliath Struggle..... Schmeiser Case Heard Before Canada's Supreme Court P AUL ELIAS, AP Biotechnology Writer (01-20) 15:04 PST OTTAWA (AP) Lawyers for agribusiness titan Monsanto Co. drew pointed questions from the Canada Supreme Court on Tuesday in a dispute with a Saskatchewan canola grower that has become a cause for biotechnology opponents and proponents around the globe. The court could takes months to rule on the dispute, which began in 1997 when Monsanto discovered its canola plant, genetically engineered to withstand the company's popular weed killer, growing on Percy Schmeiser's farm. The suit alleges Schmeiser obtained Monsanto seeds without paying for them. Schmeiser contends the company's canola accidentally took root on his farm, possibly falling from a passing truck or arriving with a gust from a neighboring farm. Two lower courts found in Monsanto's favor and ordered Schmeiser to pay the company about $140,000 in damages and legal costs. Some farmers, especially those from developing nations, fear that natural or accidental contamination of their conventional crops with biotech varieties will give biotech companies licenses to seize their crops.

99. Constitutional Keywords – Supreme Court Of Canada The ‘supreme court of Canada’ is the final court of appeal in constitutional(and other) cases. Home Section S supreme court of Canada, http://www.law.ualberta.ca/ccskeywords/supreme_court.html

Home Section S patriation of the Constitution (see Re Resolution to Amend the Constitution , [1981] 1 S.C.R. 753). The Supreme Court was created in 1875 but until 1949 its decisions could be appealed to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in Britain. It was also possible until 1949 for litigants to go directly to the Privy Council from the provincial appeal courts. For the first century of its existence, the Court was very conservative and unassertive in its judgements. There was a marked change however in 1973, following the appointment of Bora Laskin as Chief Justice. In 1975 the Supreme Court gained substantial, although not complete, control over what cases it will hear. Since the entrenchment of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms The Court is composed of nine justices, appointed by the federal government, three of whom must be from Quebec. As a matter of longstanding practice, three justices are chosen from Ontario, one from Atlantic Canada and two from the western provinces. The Supreme Court tries to reach unanimous verdicts but that is not always possible. Dissenting judgements are published along with the majority opinion and are often scrutinized by lawyers for clues about the direction in which the Court may be moving. Supreme Court decisions are binding on all lower courts in Canada. The Court is not bound to follow precedents created by the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council or its own earlier decisions, but it departs from them reluctantly and only with careful explanation of its reasons for doing so.
