This
course explores a range of contemporary legal issues and how they are addressed
in both Canadian and international law. Students will develop an understanding
of the principles of Canadian and international law and of issues related to
human rights and freedoms, conflict resolution, and criminal, environmental,
and workplace law, both in Canada and internationally. Students will apply the
concepts of legal thinking and the legal studies inquiry process, and will
develop legal reasoning skills, when investigating these and other issues in
both Canadian and international contexts.
