SUMMARY:Scholar Spotlight: Dr. Emmett Macfarlane
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Dr. Macfarlane will speak on to the relationship
  between\nspecific governments and the judiciary. Extending a previous stu
 dy of\nthe records of the Mulroney\, Chrétien\, and Harper governments be
 fore\nthe Supreme Court of Canada\, and applying a conception of political
 \nregimes adapted from American scholarship\, this paper analyzes the\nimp
 act of judicial review on the Trudeau governments’ legislative\nagenda. 
 The paper draws on a dataset of all Supreme Court cases\ninvolving federal
  legislation challenged on Charter grounds during the\nTrudeau era (2015-2
 025)\, as well as a handful of relevant lower court\ncases involving highl
 y salient policies. In so doing\, the paper also\nre-examines the relevanc
 e of a ‘regimes’ lens of analysis in light\nof criticisms that the con
 cept does not translate to the context of a\nparliamentary system.
