SUMMARY:The Case Against 8 - Special Screening
DESCRIPTION:Battles Are Won Because They Are Fought!\nThe Case Against 8 is a behind-the-scenes look inside the historic case to overturn California’s ban on same-sex marriage. The high-profile trial first makes headlines with the unlikely pairing of Ted Olson and David Boies\, political foes who last faced off as opposing attorneys in Bush v Gore. The film also follows the plaintiffs\, two gay couples who find their families at the centre of the same-sex marriage controversy. Five years in the making\, this is the story of how they took the first federal marriage equality lawsuit to the US Supreme Court. \nCo-sponsored with Out in Law\, and the International Human Rights Program. \nEvent date: Tuesday\, October 14\, 2014\, from 12:10 PM to 2:00 PM\nLocation: Alumni Hall (VC 112)\, Victoria College\, University of Toronto \nView the Event Poster HERE.

SUMMARY:Deadline: Call for Papers October 15\, 2014
DESCRIPTION:The Interplay between Sections 7 and 15 of the Charter\nFaculty of Law\, University of Toronto\, St. George Campus – February 27\, 2015 \nThe David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights invites papers for its upcoming conference examining in detail the interplay between sections 7 and 15 of the Charter. \nThe Centre invites papers that stimulate and develop an ongoing exploration of the relationship between sections 7 and 15. Issues that can be addressed include: \n• Is equality a principle of fundamental justice under section 7?\n• How have the courts treated the two separate grounds for challenging government action?\n• Are their strategic advantages to pleading both grounds or only one?\n• How can different cases challenging the same law proceed differently based on the ground pleaded (e.g. Bedford and Downtown Eastside Sex Workers)?\n• How does the relationship between the sections play out in circumstances such as mandatory minimum sentencing\, challenges to the NCR provisions\, human smuggling legislation? \nOther conference topics may include issues such the role of individual choice in respect of both equality and liberty rights; harm or dignity as central themes; socio-economic rights or the rights of the poor; and arbitrariness as an element of the analysis under each section. \nThe papers will be utilized as the central themes on various panels across the one day conference and selected conference papers will be considered for publication as part of a special issue of the National Journal of Constitutional Law. Authors of papers chosen for presentation will be notified by November 1\, 2014. Final (for the conference) papers are due by February 6\, 2015. \nThe David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights is a centre within the University of Toronto\, Faculty of Law devoted to advocacy\, research and education in the areas of constitutional rights in Canada. For more information about the Centre go to www.aspercentre.ca. \nFor those interested in participating\, please send an abstract (max: 250 words) of your intended paper with a 1-2 paragraph biography to: Cheryl Milne at cheryl.milne@utoronto.ca \nDeadline for Submissions: October 15\, 2014
