SCC paper, Macdonald birthday event feature in Vol. V, No. 11 of the MLI newsletter

December 26, 2014
in Latest News
Reading Time: 1 min read
A A

Our 2014 “Policy-Maker of the Year”, an event celebrating Sir John A. Macdonald’s 200th birthday and a controversial column on provincial jurisdiction – catch up on all things MLI with our latest newsletter.

Retiring justice Louis LeBel "pushed back" at MLI's paper.

Highlights of this edition include:

  • A look at the impact from our paper declaring the Supreme Court of Canada the 2014 “Policy-Maker of the Year”. The author, MLI Senior Fellow Benjamin Perrin, earned attention in newspapers across the country;
  • The fallout from Senior Fellow Dwight Newman’s column on why provinces have no constitutional right to make demands on national pipeline projects. The column, which discussed Ontario’s recent attempts to influence the Energy East pipeline, sparked debate across Canada;
  • A sneak peek at the event MLI has planned for February to celebrate the 200th birthday of Canada’s first prime minister, Sir John A. Macdonald.
