"In 2012, a report was prepared for the Uniform Law Conference of Canada Working Group studying the question on Exemptions from Mandatory Minimum Penalties (Dandurand, 2012). The report examined the application of mandatory minimum penalties and reviewed the experience of several jurisdictions where exceptions to, or other forms of relief from, the application of such mandatory minimum penalties had been provided by law. Most specifically, the report presented a brief comparative analysis of legal provisions permitting a court in appropriate circumstances to provide relief from the imposition of certain mandatory minimum penalties where the imposition of such custodial sentences would result in an unjust sentence. The following year, the Uniform Law Conference of Canada (Criminal Section) published its own report on the issue (Uniform Law Conference of Canada, 2013). The present report updates the 2012 study, highlights the application of mandatory minimum penalties and reviews the experience of selected juri

« Tout comme les précédentes, cette 32e édition propose une importante mise à jour législative et jurisprudentielle, d’autant que plusieurs modifications au Code criminel ont récemment été apportées aux dispositions sur la mise en liberté, de même qu’à celles portant sur le registre des délinquants sexuels. La Cour suprême du Canada a également rendu plusieurs arrêts en droit criminel au cours de la dernière année, particulièrement sur la détermination de la peine ainsi que sur la preuve dans le contexte d’agressions sexuelles, mais également sur le rôle de l’amicus curiae et les droits linguistiques. Enfin, la Cour d’appel a revu ses règles de pratique, apportant des changements notables. Comme toujours, le Traité propose un aperçu du droit applicable en axant son attention sur les arrêts de la Cour suprême du Canada et des cours d’appel provinciales. Pour la Cour suprême du Canada, sont prises en considération les décisions rendues au 31 mai 2024, alors que pour la législation et les cours d’appel provinciales, est légèrement devancée. Comme par le passé, les auteurs ont joint leurs efforts pour atteindre l’objectif qui est d’offrir aux étudiants, aux avocats et aux juges un exposé général et succinct des règles, toujours nuancées, de la preuve et de la procédure en droit criminel, tout en demeurant le plus complet possible. Le Traité expose ainsi de manière claire, concise et rigoureuse les règles et la jurisprudence récente en matière de preuve et de procédure pénales. Les auteurs y présentent les sources du droit canadien et les différentes composantes de notre système de justice criminelle et traitent des différentes phases de la procédure pénale. »-- Résumé de l'éditeur.

"International Law: Doctrine, Practice, and Theory is an innovative and unique volume which crosses the traditional boundaries between textbook, casebook, and scholarly monograph. The book is designed primarily as an introduction to the system and substance of international law. It is also a convenient and comprehensive reference work on the most important aspects of this burgeoning field. The book includes introductory materials on the nature, history, and theory of international law from an international relations, as well as a legal, perspective. Carefully selected and edited primary materials — including treaties, UN documents, and cases — take readers to the very sources of the rules and principles that comprise modern international law. Extensive and critical commentary on, and analysis of, these primary materials guide the reader to an understanding of the rules, their strengths and weaknesses, and their place in the international legal system. Descriptions of contemporary real-world situations provide concrete context to the discussion. Remarkable for both its depth and breadth, International Law: Doctrine, Practice, and Theory sets the standard for the study of international law in Canada. It also constitutes an invaluable reference collection for practitioners, judges, and scholars working in this ever-increasingly important area of modern law."-- Provided by publisher.
