1 Public Law II: The Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Limits of Public Administration Public Law II Thursdays 7:00 10:00 SLH B Syllabus Course Director: Soren Frederiksen sdfred@yorku.ca office: McLaughlin College 126 Course Description This course examines the influence of constitutional and other human rights provisions on Canadian jurisprudence. In particular, it focuses on the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, including freedom of expression, legal rights, equality rights, language rights, aboriginal people's rights and judicial review of public administration. In studying this material, students will become familiar with the process of judicial review in the context of the Charter and human rights legislation more generally. Students will also learn to analyse statutory and case law so as to understand its legal meaning as well as learn to do limited legal research in this context. The object of this course is to provide a basic foundation in Canadian human rights law for students who may work government, the private sector, or continue on to graduate studies in public policy or the social sciences. Format This course consists of a weekly lecture (2 hours) followed immediately by a discussion session (1 hour). Attendance at lectures and discussion sections is required and attendance will be taken. You are expected to have read all required material prior to the lectures and discussion sections.

6 Fact Patterns for Mock Trials Please be prepared to pick one of the following fact patterns prior to our second class. Keep in mind that each one is scheduled for a particular date (see the Lecture Schedule, above). 1) Freedom of Religion (Hogg Chapter 42): Mr. Smith has moved to Toronto. He is part of new religious group that has recently been founded in Los Angeles. This group was founded in response to the celebrity culture of southern California. Its members believe in maintaining anonymity, and for this purpose they all change their names to Smith and avoid carrying government identification cards. They also believe that being photographed is corrupting and will therefore not consent to being photographed under any circumstances. As part of his legitimately held religious beliefs, Mr. Smith has challenged the requirement that he be photographed and carry a driver s license in order to drive his car. The Ontario Superior Court has agreed that the requirement of a picture is an unconstitutional violation of his religious freedom, but has held that the requirement that he carry his driver s license with him to drive is not. Both parties are cross-appealing this decision. 2) Freedom of Assembly and Association (Hogg Chapter 44): The global economic crisis has led to a recession in southern Ontario, leaving many people out of work. There have been a series of vocal and occasionally violent demonstrations in Toronto in consequence. Citing fears over damage to property and injuries to people, the Province has passed legislation that requires extensive permits for demonstrations and largely limits them to free speech zones in remote parts of the city. Several months have passed, and a provincial election has been called. Citing this new legislation, the police have arrested demonstrators at political rallies. The Ontario Superior Court has held that this legislation is unconstitutional, but this decision is now being appealed by the province. 3) Fundamental Justice (Hogg Chapter 47): As a result of public fears about street racing, the Federal Government has amended the Criminal Code to create a new offence. This new offence of Extreme Street Racing imposes mandatory prison sentences of 1 to 2 years less a day on those found driving more than 40 km/h over the speed limit, and mandatory penalties of 15 years to life for those who cause death while doing so. Marty Villeneuve was driving back from the cottage on the 400, hit a patch of black ice and slid into another car, killing its driver. He was going 141 km/h as recorded by the GPS system in his car and was prosecuted for street racing. Following constitutional argument, the trial judge refused to impose the mandatory 15-year sentence and instead imposed a sentence of 2 years less a day. The province is appealing this decision. 4) Equality Rights (Hogg Chapter 55): Ontario has enacted a new Human Rights Act. This new act provides extensive protections against discrimination for all the groups listed in s. 15 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, as well as analogous grounds, thus echoing the language of the Charter. However, due to an error in drafting, the Act does not protect against discrimination in bars and restaurants. A Toronto bar with a largely Danish clientele has used this loophole to refuse to serve anyone with a Swedish last name. On customer, after being refused service, complained to the Ontario Human Rights Commission, which fined the bar for violating the Human Rights Act. On judicial review, the Ontario Superior Court has sided with the bar and set aside the fine. That verdict is now being appealed by the Human Rights Commission.
