Resources

Maximum benefit from this course will be achieved by making time to read all of the resources and completing all of the exercises. This area of the law is very fluid and changes come quickly, some that are substantive.

Where do I find current laws listed?

We have linked resources in this course and also you will find a ‘course library’, which links you to key resources that we believe you will find helpful.
Best source is the Justice Laws Website which is set up by the Government of Canada; as the page notes they update the consolidations of the laws ‘weekly’. 

"Welcome to the online source of the consolidated Acts and regulations of Canada. The consolidations are generally updated on a weekly basis.”
