AUCTIONS
Sheila Nemet-Brown, B.A. (Hons.), LL.B.

Auctions are an important avenue for commercial sales activity. Auction sales occur in many contexts, including sale of goods by landlords and innkeepers of property previously belonging to tenants and guests, sale of livestock, and sale of property for tax arrears. The laws, regulations and bylaws applicable to auctions seek to ensure the fairness of the process and the integrity of the goods offered for sale. They are also intended to ensure that auctioneers, bidders and sellers abide by specific requirements.

Topics covered in this national reference include:

  • Auctioneers and auction sales companies
  • Internet auctions
  • Licensing requirements
  • Sale under public auction
  • Particular property sold at auction

BETTING, GAMING AND LOTTERIES
Donald J. Bourgeois, B.A. (Hons.), LL.B.

Gambling is an important economic activity that transcends international borders. From the perspective of regulators, gambling is both complex and lucrative.

Halsbury's Betting, Gaming and Lotteries details the shared federal and provincial jurisdiction in this area. It provides comprehensive information on criminal offences, licensed activities, provincial regulatory models, the development of online gaming, and the evolution of relevant case law.

Topics in this national reference include:

  • Criminal Code offences, statutory exemptions and permitted gaming
  • The conduct and management of provincial gaming activity
  • The jurisprudence on the conduct and management of gaming activities
