VITAL STATISTICS
Susan Boulter, B.A.
Vital statistics are data collected by the registration of vital events, such as births, stillbirths, marriages and deaths, and are increasingly relevant in our information age. This data is important to monitor population growth, serves as a key source of public health information, and may be used for methodological studies and survey sampling. Such data have also been critical in identifying, understanding and controlling communicable diseases. This title examines the law relating to the collection and registration of vital statistics by federal, provincial and territorial governments.
Topics covered include:
- Births and stillbirths
- Adoptions and adoption records
- Marriage
- Name changes
- Changes of sex or gender identity
- Deaths
WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
David Stevens, B.A., LL.B. & Nada Khirdaji, B.A. (Hons.), M.A., LL.B.
Weights and measures standards are the foundation of laws regulating the purchase and sale of measured goods and services. To ensure accurate trade measurement, Canadian statutes and regulations require the use of prescribed measurement units and standards, as well as the certification of measuring devices and meters used in measurement-based financial transactions. This title discusses the legislative framework of weights and measures law in Canada and Measurement Canada's administration and enforcement of laws regulating the purchase and sale of measured consumer products, electricity and natural gas.
Topics covered include:
- Units of measurement
- Measurement devices
- Legal requirements for specific commodities and services, including cannabis, dairy, forestry, retail food trade and retail petroleum trade
- Electricity and gas standards and meters
- Certification and inspections
- Violations, penalties, offences and punishment related to electricity and gas standards
- Circulation and non-circulation coins
WILDLIFE, LIVESTOCK AND PETS
Gavin Hole, B.Eng, J.D. & Katie Sykes, B.A., J.D., LL.M., Ph.D.
While the ownership and protection of animals are affected by laws of general application, such as property and criminal law, legislation has also been enacted at all levels of government targeting the regulation of animals in their many different capacities. This title discusses both the diverse legislative framework and the common law principles that affect the treatment of wild animals, livestock, and pets in Canada, such as biodiversity, health, prevention of, and punishment for, distress and cruelty, ownership, identification, local and municipal regulation, and torts involving animals.
Topics covered include:
- Biodiversity and health
- Captive wild animals
- Hunting and fishing
- Identification and pedigree of livestock
- “Ag Gag” laws
- Local and municipal regulations
- Dog-specific legislation
- Service animals
- Distress and cruelty
- Torts involving animals
