Unity in the eye of the beholder? Reasons for decision in theory and practice in the Ontario Works program
- Author
- Because of this many public law scholars assume that judicial review is a more effective mechanism for reforming administrative agencies than it appears to be in practice.
- Canadian courts have stated that they are no longer apex legal interpreters vis-Ă -vis administrative bodies but, as public law scholars often note, courts still struggle with deferring to administrative decision makers.

- Ontario has followed new public management techniques introduced in other jurisdictions and appears to be pursuing the new wave of new public analytics developments.
- Other scholars have identified similar documentary practices in different institutional contexts.

- The Supreme Court of Canada’s tendency to parse reasons from thin decision-making records which appears to be less than deferential, has been the subject of recent comment by some of its justices – that is, Justices Russell Brown and Suzanne Côté – as well as by legal scholars.
- This trend is not entirely new particularly in front-line agencies and in last-resort benefits programs.

No full textA Conflict-of-Laws Approach to Competing Rationalities in International Law: The Case of Plain Packaging between Intellectual Property, Trade, Investment and Health
- Author
- Based on the analysis of Teubner and Fischer-Lescano there is a “clash of cultures” amongst the different autonomous social systems which establish themselves internationally which prevents any meaningful interaction between them
- Baxter See
- Berman PS
- Doha Declaration on the TRIPS Agreement and Public Health
- For some examples
- For the integration of health and other non-trade objectives in the plain packaging dispute
- In a similar way
- In conflict-of-laws doctrine the desire of a state to apply its law, as expressed in the content of its statutes, is considered an acceptable criterion for resolving ConflictsL see Scoles
- In essence the focus is on the competing rules and the interests they represent rather than the facts and their closest connection
- In further developments of Currie's approach Baxter added this comparative-impairment theory as an addendum for the solution of true Conflicts
- In private international law the forum must closely examine any Conflicting expert evidence on foreign law and form its own opinion based on the material presented
- In the context of copyright Conflict of laws see the French decision
- Judges lack this authority since according to Currie, the weighing of governmental interests is a “political function of a very high order …that should not be committed to courts in a democracy”

- The application of governmental interest analysis requires ascertaining which of the states concerned has a more legitimate interest in having its social economic or administrative policies applied to the legal problem at hand. The theory was developed by the American scholar Brainerd Currie in his book
- The latter approach by von Savigny focuses on legal relationships
- The term
- These cases where more than one state has an interest in its rules being applied are distinguished from those where the inquiry into the policies expressed in the laws reveals that only one state has such an interest (false conflicts) and those where none of the states involved is interested (no-interest pattern)
- This is the French term for “breaking into smaller pieces”. In Conflict of laws this notion is often used to indicate that the choice-of-law determination may be made for each issue of the case separately
- This term refers to the old Conflict-of-laws doctrines that prevailed in medieval city-states in what is now northern Italy (eg Venice Bologna, Modena): Conflicts of laws caused by increasing commercial interaction were initially resolved by a simplistic classifi cation of local laws
- This wide understanding of Conflict is based on the approach by the ILC in its Fragmentation Report

- While in principle of course the state consent which led to the creation of the (competing) rules will call for an application of all rules
