S04E27 The Affirmative Action Case
07/17/23 • 57 min
In what might be called US Supreme Court decisions Part 2, lawyer Marty Moore follows last week's episode on the Creative LLC USSC ruling with a review of the affirmative action ruling issued at roughly the same time. The case itself will have little impact on Canada because we have embedded affirmative action in our Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

S04E26 The Creative Case
Lawyer Marty Moore explores the US Supreme Court's reasoning in the Creative LLC versus Colorado decision. Is it, as the mainstream media claimed, a blow against gay rights? Is it a victory for freedom of expression? Marty also draws an interesting parallel between this current US ruling and a Canadian case from over 20 years ago.
