Expropriation
Gavin Hole, B.Eng, J.D.

While expropriation is carried out in the greater public interest, the potential for conflict and costly damages amongst those directly affected by these public projects is high. Today's expropriation practitioner must be savvy in all facets of the expropriation process, including negotiation, options for challenging the decision to expropriate and issues arising throughout the entire litigation process.

Halsbury's Expropriation title is an essential reference for those representing land owners facing possible expropriation and expropriating authorities seeking to acquire land. Unlike other texts with only a provincial focus, this national resource details the application and procedure of the Expropriation Act in each province and territory, as well as the title determinations, vesting of interests, possession, use of land and abandonments of expropriations and compensatory principles unique to the jurisdiction.

Topics in this invaluable national reference include:

Extradition and Mutual Legal Assistance
Gary Botting, M.A., Ph.D. (Eng), M.F.A., LL.B., LL.M., Ph.D. (Law)

As globalization continues to melt borders around the world, extradition laws in Canada have become a vehicle for securing our nation and achieving positive diplomatic relations abroad. Extradition in Canada is governed by statute and by treaty law, resulting in a cross-section of criminal law, constitutional law, human rights law and public international law. Written by the pre-eminent expert in the field of extradition, Halsbury's Extradition and Mutual Legal Assistancetitle untangles the complex web of Canada's extradition regime and provides an indispensible guide to the balancing of rights and obligations in dealing with extradition requests and meeting legislative and treaty obligations, as well as a succinct overview of the mutual legal assistance regime on obtaining evidence for use abroad.

Topics in this essential reference include:

And much more.
