Independence and accountability in public and private governance
While it is often claimed that the efficacy of accountability officers depends on their independence, the issue of “independence” is fraught with ambiguity: who needs to be independent from whom? This article considers the relationship between independence and accountability from both public and private legal perspectives. We identify three areas for improvement in public sector ethics. First, avenues for civil recovery following misconduct by pu…
Constitutional Aspects of Commercial Law
This chapter describes the constitutional aspects of commercial law and focuses on division-of-powers issues relating to banking, bankruptcy, corporate, and securities law. The chapter makes two important observations. First, the broader jurisdictional lines in commercial law areas are mostly settled. Banking and bankruptcy are areas of federal jurisdiction, for example, whereas the provincial and federal governments have overlapping jurisdiction…
Combating Terrorist Financing: Is Canada's Legal Regime Effective
When Air India Flight 182 was bombed in 1985, anti-terrorist financing (ATF) law did not exist. In Canada, over the past decade, a broad-based legal regime, consisting of the Criminal Code and the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act, has developed. This regime covers significant regulatory ground and, generally speaking, accords with private and public international law, including the 1267 regime and the 1999 Internat…
Is Systemic Risk Relevant to Securities Regulation
The global financial meltdown has led to a renewed focus on the purposes of securities regulation and on the expansion of these purposes to include considerations of systemic risk; yet the case for such an expansion has been assumed more than argued. This article derives an argument for expansion from developments in the financial markets. Traditionally, mitigating systemic risk has fallen within the realm of financial institution (i.e., prudenti…
Why Is This Taking So Long? The Move Toward a National Securities Regulator
Game theoretical analysis can be useful in contexts such as securities regulation, where multiple decision makers (i.e., securities regulatory authorities or commissions) act unilaterally but can also potentially reap benefits from cooperation. We deploy several models in seeking to render more transparent the strategies and pay-offs that motivate jurisdictions to support or resist the introduction of a national securities regulator in Canada. Ou…
Advancing the Mountain Women's Agenda: From Research to Action
Celebrating Mountain Women: Moving Mountains, Moving Women
Mountains are the mainstay of local economies, providing valuable resources for livelihoods. But they are not immune to change because mountain people go out into the outside world, and the world comes into their lives. In this context, mountain women face many challenges, for example, those brought about by out-migration of men and young people from their communities, by external commercial interests that exploit mountain resources, and by chang…
ICTs: Empowering Women, Assisting Development
The UN Development Programme Human Development Report suggests that regulation and policy measures will have to be in place to ensure that women benefit from these technologies. If other experiences in womens empowerment are something to go by figures count and speak for themselves. A sophisticated data collection system needs to be in place to keep track of how women are preparing themselves to enter the Information and Communications Technologi…
