Reforming the bifurcated process under section 38 of the Canada Evidence Act
Objections to the disclosure of information under section 38 of the Canada Evidence Act must be adjudicated in the first instance by the Federal Court even when they arise in proceedings before other courts or tribunals.

The Catholic Church in both areas was rather weak and spent much of t…

Drawing on a dataset of job openings posted at an online job board, the authors find that employers are less likely to offer performance-based pay when a job entails multitasking, quality control, or team work than when a job does not entail these tasks. This finding is consistent with the notion that when employers have difficulty measuring a worker's overall performance at jobs with these dimensions, they offer weaker performance incentives to …
