Product description
Both colleagues and peers who have worked with Louise Charron admire her hard work and moral convictions. One former law clerk remarked: "She was a fabulous boss and a woman with a great sense of public service and ethics."
Justice Charron's lasting impact on Canadian legal jurisprudence are her written judgments themselves: they represent the way an ideal ruling should be written – clear and straightforward. She was always concerned that the law be accessible and useful to advocates, judges and the public, and always added a touch of pragmatism to her judgments.
In this five-part volume written by renown lawyers and legal scholars, readers will have a chance to experience the insight, wisdom and knowledge of a remarkable Canadian jurist who always recognized fundamental legal principles such as the rule of law, and the values enshrined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
