It is also the first Charter decision to reach the Supreme Court since its enactment in 1982. Background Joel Skapinker was a citizen of South Africa residing in Canada who applied to the Ontario bar to practice law. The bar refused his application as the LawSociety Act required that he be a Canadian citizen. Skapinker brought an application to have the provision of the Act requiring Canadian citizenship be held inoperative on the basis that it violated section 6 2 b of the Charter. At trial, the application was denied. However, on appeal the Court held that his mobility rights were in fact violated. Opinion of the Court The unanimous Court held that Skapinker s rights were not violated by the LawSociety Act. Estey J., writing for the Court, acknowledged the difficulty in interpreting the Charter as it was not to be treated like a statute.

Safeway violated the provincial Human Rights Act by failing to provide equal compensation for those who missed work due to pregnancy. This decision overturned the controversial case of Bliss v. Attorney General of Canada , 1979 . In 1982, Susan Brooks, Patricia Allen and Patricia Dixon were all part time cashiers at Safeway who became pregnant. The Safeway insurance plan that provided benefits for loss of pay due to accident or sickness did not give full benefits for 17 weeks for those who were unable to work due to pregnancy.

orphan date January 2010 Unreferenced date February 2007 Moran v. Pyle National CanadaLtd. , 1975 1 S.C.R. 393 is a leading Canadian case on conflict of laws decided by the Supreme Court of Canada . The decision represented the biggest transformation in the law of conflicts for over 15 years until the later case of Morguard Investments Ltd. v. De Savoye 1990 . A Saskatchewan man was killed in his home while replacing a light bulb that was manufactured by the defendant in Ontario . The Court allowed the widow to sue in tort within Saskatchewan despite the defendant not having any presence in Saskatchewan. The Court adopted a more modern and liberal interpretation of jurisdiction and the location of a tort that balanced fairness between the parties. Justice Dickson, on the issue of whether the Saskatchewan court could have jurisdiction over the issue, held that Quote Generally speaking, in determining where a tort has been committed, it is unnecessary, and unwise, to have resort to any arbitrary set of rules. The place of acting and the place of harm theories are too arbitrary and inflexible to be recognized in contemporary jurisprudence. ... By tendering his products in the market place directly or through normal distributive channels, a manufacturer ought to assume the burden of defending those products wherever they cause harm as long as the forum into which the manufacturer is taken is one that he reasonably ought to have had in his contemplation when he so tendered his goods. pp.408 409 See also List of Supreme Court of Canada cases DEFAULTSORT Moran V.

Unreferenced date December 2009 MacDonald v. Vapor CanadaLtd. , 1977 2 S.C.R. 134 is a leading constitutional decision of the Supreme Court of Canada on the Trade and Commerce power under section 91 2 of the Constitution Act, 1867 . Background The federal Canadian trade mark law Trade marks Act provided remedies for acts or business practices that are contrary to honest industrial or commercial usage in Canada . The constitutionality of these provisions were challenged as ultra vires of the federal government as it created civil remedy and cause of action for tort and contractual matters which is generally under the power of the provincial authority over property and civil rights . Federal Court of Appeal upheld the provision as valid under the Trade and Commerce power. The Supreme Court held in a unanimous decision that the provisions were unconstitutional. Opinion of the Court Bora Laskin Chief Justice Laskin , writing for the Court, found that the provisions did encroach on the province s authority over property and civil rights and could not be upheld under the trade and commerce branch. In considering the trade and commerce clause he examined the general trade branch of the clause first articulated in Citizen s Insurance Co. v. Parsons 1881 . Laskin proposed a three stage test for the general trade branch. First, there must be a general regulatory scheme . Second, the scheme must have the oversight of a regulatory agency , and third, the scheme must have a concern with trade as a whole rather than a particular industry . Aftermath The test was later modified by General Motors v. City of National Leasing 1989 . See also List of Supreme Court of Canada cases Laskin Court DEFAULTSORT Macdonald V. Vapor CanadaLtd.
