This collection of legal essays draws upon the third Canadian Law of Obligations conference held in June 2022 in Vancouver, British Columbia. It features scholarship of distinguished and emerging scholars from Canada and around the world. The contributions explore and critique the power and limits of the laws of torts/delict, contract and restitution through a range of theoretical, technical, policy-oriented and pragmatic perspectives. They grapple with contemporary issues and developments in Canadian law and society, advancing insights to shape both the theory and the practice of private law.
