The Law of Trusts: A Contextual Approach, 4th Edition provides a comprehensive overview of trust law and related concepts in a broad context, which considers practical, social, environmental, and policy aspects. Divided into seven parts, this text explores the wide application of trusts and Canadian jurisprudence, as well as other key subjects: the express trust, trusts arising from the operation of law, trust remedies, modern uses of trusts, fiduciary relationships, and the trust in Quebec.

This edition reflects an up-to-date survey of the Canadian law of trusts—including revised chapters as well as new content—and the modern contexts in which trusts may be employed.
