Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cases Decided on the British North America Act, 1867, in the Privy Council, the Supreme Court of Canada, and the Provincial Courts, Vol. 3
The present volume contains the reported cases in the Privy Council, the Supreme Court of Canada, and in the Courts of the Provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, in continuation of those previously published.
The method of arrangement adopted in the former volumes has been retained.
The head notes, with one or two exceptions have been revised or re-written.
Where any part of a judgment is omitted the omission is marked by asterisks or otherwise, the matters omitted being such only as do not relate to the constitutional points. Square brackets, thus shew that the words placed within them are introduced by the editor.
The numbers inserted in the margin refer to the pages of the original reports.
All quotations and references have, as far as possible, been verified and corrected.
As the old Constitutions of the Provinces now forming the Dominion of Canada and the Constitution of the United States are occasionally referred to in the discussions arising on the B. N. A. Act, they have been printed at the end of this volume.
