• Constitutional considerations
• The concept of a statutory delegate
• The acquisition of jurisdiction

• Discretionary powers
• Standards of review
• Public and private law remedies against governmental action

The seventh edition incorporates significant recent jurisprudence from the Supreme Court of Canada and various courts of appeal including Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration) v. Vavilov.
