Includes
Youth and the Law
What’s the law? What does it mean? If the law is broken, especially criminal law, there may be a penalty. But who makes the law? How can the government draw lines in imposing individual responsibility? This book examines these questions in the context of dealing with youth, with case studies and analysis.
Freedom and Expression
This book detailing the protections, limits, and interpretation of freedom of expression in Canada is the second in a series exploring key topics pertaining to Canadian law.
Crime Scene Investigations
Police investigations can become legal minefields. Crime Scene Investigations is a clear guide to the powers and limitations of law enforcement officials. From the right to a lawyer’s advice, to privacy law in search and seizures, to stop-and-frisk-style ‘carding’ operations, this book covers the key topics in depth.
