Environmental Law Cases and Materials

"In this new edition of Canada's leading environmental law text, Professors Doelle and Tollefson provide a fully updated and greatly expanded treatise that will be a valuable resource for practitioners, students, environmental professionals and decision-makers. It remains the go-to teaching tool for foundational and advanced Canadian environmental law courses. The 4th edition contains substantial new content in the climate law area including analysis of the SCC's Greenhouse Gas Reference decision and other leading Canadian and foreign climate precedents. There is also extensive coverage of Vavilov (SCC, 2019) and other developments in the judicial review context. A key focus is the interplay between Aboriginal law, environmental and resource law. While federal environmental law and practice takes centre-stage, a comparative and interdisciplinary approach is adopted that introduces the key theoretical debates that inform contemporary environmental law and policy. This 4th edition is dedicated to the memory of Dr. Doelle, a founding co-author of this classic textbook series since its launch in 2009."--Page 4 of cover.
