Administrative Law: Cases, Text, and Materials, 9th Edition offers a current and comprehensive review of administrative law in Canada, reflecting recent case law, tribunal decisions, legislative developments, and evolving policy debates. This edition responds to the growing breadth and complexity of administrative decision-making and judicial oversight in the Canadian legal system.
Building on foundational principles, the ninth edition significantly expands its analysis to address emerging issues at the intersection of administrative and constitutional law, including the administrative review of decisions supported by artificial intelligence, the duty to consult with Indigenous rights holders, and the limits on governmental authority to defer the proclamation of legislation. These developments are examined within the context of contemporary jurisprudence and ongoing debates about the role and reach of administrative decision-makers.
Designed for instructors who adopt a case-analysis approach to teaching administrative law, this long-standing and respected casebook continues to support close reading and critical engagement with primary materials. Hyperlinked citations to CanLII in the eBook edition further enhance accessibility and ease of use, enabling students to navigate complex case law with confidence.
