A comprehensive synthesis of the law relating to the regulation of Canadian professions, this is the only work of its kind providing a comprehensive synthesis of the law relating to the regulation of professions in Canada, particularly as it applies to the issues of discipline and licensing. This work reviews both the legislative framework — federally, provincially, and constitutionally — and the significant body of case law that interprets this subject.

Topics covered include:

• The jurisdiction of the professional tribunal over the professional
• The right of associations to make rules
• Procedural and evidentiary rights at disciplinary hearings
• Bias
• Charter implications
• The interrelationship of discipline and criminal law
• Unauthorized practice
• Judicial review

The work also includes a useful sentencing table that summarizes in chart form, the penalties imposed for a wide range of professional misconduct.
