Book excerpt: "Bad Judgment is a quintessential fall-from-grace story about a man from humble beginnings who rose to the top of the legal profession, only to be removed from the bench because of his bad judgment, the intolerant attitudes of the elite bar, and political necessity. What did Leo Landreville really do? And why were some of the most famous lawyers and politicians in Canada in the 1960s determined to end his judicial career?" "Landreville was appointed one of Her Majesty's justices in 1956. After moving from Sudbury to Toronto to take up his job at Osgoode Hall, he and his wife moved into the newly built and very fashionable Benvenuto Place and joined the best clubs. But his elevated status was to be short-lived. As it turned out, he had accepted a stock option from Northern Ontario Natural Gas when NONG obtained the gas franchise in Sudbury and he was the mayor. Soon after settling into his chambers at Osgoode Hall, he exercised the option and pocketed $117,000, without having laid out a cent." "Landreville was not the only politician to benefit from his dealings with NONG. The 'Gas Scandal,' as it was called, brought an early end to the careers of three provincial Conservative cabinet ministers and bruised the reputation of the Liberal leader, another beneficiary. Landreville was charged with municipal corruption and conspiracy, but he managed to beat the accusations. When the Law Society of Upper Canada convened a special committee, found the judge guilty of misconduct, and called upon the minister of justice to have him removed, the Landreville affair began. The character assassination of Landreville soon became a national sport, and the judge found himself under investigation by a royal commission. A joint parliamentary committee then recommended that Landreville be removed from the bench. Instead, he resigned in disgrace." "Bad Judgment is a probing account of judicial independence and of what should be done when the conduct of judges is brought into question. A veritable 'Who's Who' of Canadian legal and political history, it provides an inside look at the workings of the judiciary, the Law Society of Upper Canada, and the Ontario and federal governments in their attempts to deal with a growing scandal that threatened to bring the administration of justice in Canada into disrepute."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two studies in Interest Groups and Elections in Canada explore the nature and influence of special interest groups. They consider different aspects of the question, "In the context of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, how can the laws intended to secure a fair electoral process be reconciled with freedom of expression?" Janet Hiebert reviews the limits on interest groups adopted in 1974 and amended in 1983, profiles the groups involved int he 1988 federal election, and discusses relevant legislation and jurisprudence in the provinces and abroad. She concludes that spending limits for parties and candidates will only be effective if there are also restrictions on independent expenditures during elections by groups and individuals. Brian Tanguay and Barry Kay assess the influence attributed to locally oriented interest groups, including by members of Parliament, and conclude that these organizations have less influence on the political process than is the popular view. The authors conclude that dissatisfaction is a key variable explaining the role of these interest groups and their activities during elections.

He argues that we must understand human violence if we are to keep human civilization alive. From such understanding, he is able to show how deep-rooted conflict can slowly be transformed into peace and reconciliation. Anyone who cares about violence in this world should feel that this book is for them."
