An innovative work on the scope of judicial decision-making in Canada, Boundaries of Judicial Review: The Law of Justiciability in Canada is an innovative work on the scope of judicial decision-making in Canada. It explores the restrictions on which matters courts may decide and which are moot, hypothetical, political in nature or not yet ripe for a decision.

A necessary book for practitioners whose work involves constitutional or administrative matters, it addresses questions such as:

• When will a matter be dealt with in the courts?
• When will a matter be decided in the legislature or by the executive branch of the government?
• Which disputes should appropriately be before a judge?
• Is an issue too premature, complex, vague, or hypothetical to be decided by a court?

The second edition of Boundaries of Judicial Review: The Law of Justiciability in Canada has been fully updated, reflecting recent developments relating to climate change, foreign relations, and controversies over national security and the war against terrorism.
