Before Manitoba became a province in 1870, carrying out justice was by the Council of the Hudson’s Bay Company and the Governor. The Governor and the Council of Assiniboia met regularly as the Quarterly General Courts by 1835. In those days, in what was then known as the Red River Settlement, it was separated into four separate judicial districts and a gaol (Court House and jail) was built in Lower Fort Garry. Matters involving debts and minor criminal offenses were heard in a quarterly court headed by an appointed justice of the peace or magistrate in each district. The Quarterly General Court of the Governor and Council heard appeals from magistrates, more serious criminal cases, and cases that involve debts of over two pounds. In 1837, the districts were redrawn and then there were three judicial districts: the Lower, Middle, and Upper. The Quarterly General Court was sometimes referred to as “The Supreme Court”. An act of the General Court was passed in 1864 stating that the proceedings of the Quarterly General Court should be managed by the Laws of England. General Courts heard both criminal and civil cases. Criminal matters

The aspect of the Canadian justice system that this article relates to is obviously policing/ law enforcement. Specifically this article goes into the regulations of policing as Ontario police officers now have to follow stricter regulations when stopping any member of the public. This is important in relation to the Canadian justice system as police officers stopping citizens is considered a controversial issue as people feel random stops or carding are considered arbitrary, and unnecessary, and this violates section 9 of the charter of rights and freedoms which states that “everyone has the right not to be arbitrarily detained or imprisoned”. (Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms) and Carding is “A practice by which officers stop, question,

The Australian Legal System was around the 1700’s when Britain brought its own legal system over when they were setting up the colonies in Australia. Over a century or so Britain began granting limited rights to set up a local legal system within the British colonies. They were granted this right, and were able to develop their own laws and legal systems. The passing of the Australian Constitution began an independent legal system that formed part of the governmental system in Australia, which took place in 1901, and while the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia was indeed an Act of the British Parliament, Britain's involvement in the Australian Government begun to decrease. However, there was minor propulsion for Australia to procure

HOW DOES THE ADVERSARY LEGAL SYSTEM ENSURE RULE OF LAW, AND HOW DOES THIS DIFFER FROM MODERN MEDIA MISCONCEPTIONS?

In America we have a complex system of courts that many do not understand, this is the same in many other countries too. There are many different types of court system you could have. There is Common Law, Civil Law, a mix of both and Islamic Law. America has a type of law called Common Law, which originally comes from England. This type just means that there are decisions by judges and courts. Another country with this law is Canada. When you look at the systems you can see how similar they are to each other. Both of these fine nations have judges and they have courts, where some are higher up than others. There is the Canadian Supreme Court, Tax Court, Court of Appeals, Providential Courts (the equivalent of district courts), and Court

In contrast to the Canadian parliamentary system, which has remained fairly static and unchanged since Victorian times, the Canadian legal system has undergone a tremendous evolution over the last century and a half. When looking at Canadian history in depth one discovers the repeated movement to take power from the superiors or the overruling and place it into the palms of the people. As seen through examples our western law (canadian law) has slowly branched off from the supremacy of God (mosaic law), to the supremacy of the monarchy (bristish law), finally to a realization of the importance of citizen participation in the creating, governing, and administrating of the laws (Greek law).

Since the British North America Act was adopted in 1867, Canada has been developing and writing up their own laws independently from other countries. Many people believe that, though our Canadian laws have come far from the days of the BNA act, they are still not up to par with the harshness of American laws. The advantage that Canadians have over Americans is that in Canada, there is only one criminal code for all Canadians whereas in the United States, every State has their own criminal codes which, unfortunately for the Americans, are not identical. Also, the United States and Canada each have a law that is fraught with the possibility that an injustice will be brought upon those whom these laws apply. In the United States, it is the

There is no doubt that concerns about immigration policies have gained traction in Congress with the recent terrorist attacks in Manchester and Barcelona. These incidents have encouraged the United States to have a more rigid enforcement of its immigration policies, including Trump’s moves to end DACA and his Immigration Ban targeting mainly Islamic countries. The U.S. Customs and Border Enforcement supports these actions to strengthen immigration policies as they believe they will improve overall security. Consequently, after a murder by an undocumented immigrant in San Francisco, another bill has been passed in the House to prevent these further tragedies known as “Kate’s Law.” It installs harsher penalties for repeated illegal entry

Many Canadian citizens would argue that The Canadian Independent Justice System is a threat to democracy. An independant Justice system is when the courts do not depend or rely on the government. They operate on their own and are independent from any government organizations. The Canadian independent Justice System is beneficial and good for democracy because the Judges can not be intimidated by the threat of losing their job, the court system allows appeals, and judges must abide to The Canadian Charter of Rights. The Canadian Independent Justice System is not a threat to democracy.

As the government continued to evolve Canada needed a set system of rules that allowed for analyzing of regulations and government principals. It was extremely important that the three branches of government powers were kept separate so that there would be no infringement on the roles of the legislative and judicial branches. Administrative law consists of rules and ideologies which regulate how governmental departments and their agencies establish and oversee laws, set benchmarks in how other government organizations or authorities should and must carry out their roles and establishes the powers of higher courts and how they control the powers they are given. Most importantly, it deciphers what procedures one must follow and what solutions

In a 2007 speech by Beverly McLachlin, the Supreme Court of Canada Chief of Justice, she stated that “access to justice promotes social stability” and also that “if people can’t get justice, they will have less respect for the law” (Eberts, 2013). By her words alone, the necessity and importance of legal aid is demonstrated. Socioeconomic status can put individuals at an unfair disadvantage in many aspects of life, especially in regards to legal proceedings. “Legal aid [was] introduced to Canada in the 1970’s” as a way of ensuring fair trial, and decreasing the frequency of common problems that result from misunderstanding of the law, unrepresented litigants and the power of money (Abell, 2010). However, like any tool or procedure used to improve society, there are always imperfections. Legal aid resources have become difficult to obtain financially and situationally, and the quality of this resource is often put into question. Without it, people and the justice system face consequences that need to be resolved in order to achieve the social stability that McLachlin speaks of.

1964 was the year the Beatles came to America, Cassius Clay became Muhammad Ali, and three civil right workers were murdered in Mississippi. It was also the year that students at Berkeley rose up in protest, African Americans fought back against injustice in Harlem, and Goldwater 's conservationists took over the Republican Party. 1964 was the year America faced choices that would greatly affect the future of the country. The film 1964, based on The Last Innocent Year: America in 1964 by Jon Margolis, covers the major events that helped shape the decisions that Americans would have to make in the years after.

Canada, through its International Humanitarian Assistance Program, aims to save lives, alleviate suffering, and maintain the dignity of those affected by conflicts and natural disasters by providing timely and appropriate funding for food, water, shelter, protection and other humanitarian assistance. Coming out of the World Humanitarian Summit and its Grand Bargain (May 2016) and the United Nations Summit for Refugees and Migrants (September 2016), Canada made a commitment to working differently to reduce unprecedented levels of humanitarian need and forced displacement. These organizations ensure that people affected by conflicts, natural disasters and pandemics are physically safe, receive health care, and have food, water and shelter.
