PM [selected] Mary Moreau to the Supreme Court Canada. 'Moreau’s resume is rich, extensive, and diverse. Her judicial background renders her a strong candidate who is bound to significantly impact the #SCC’s jurisprudence.' @AlxRobbins #cdnpoli #justice https://t.co/irsv2VLQIB

@RahbarDarya She has some ABCA panel experience!

[Alex Robbins @AlxRobbins]

It will be very interesting to see how Moreau tackles the various politically fiery cases coming out of Alberta, in addition to s. 23 Charter cases.

Is it just me or was @SCC_eng particularly dormant this year? Sifting through decisions to select one for an upcoming moot… slim pickings.

My final post! This is bound to be a really exciting decision from the SCC. Thanks to @thecourtdotca for an awesome year 🙏🏻✨

@OmarHaRedeye I propose you judge a moot next year 🤪

[TheCourt.ca @thecourtdotca]

Administrative law and tax law went head-to-head in Dow Chemical Canada, which will soon be heard by the SCC. @alxrobbins argues the decision properly delineated the Federal Court and Tax Court's jurisdiction with respect to the Income Tax Act.
