This will be my third consecutive year attending the Law & Freedom Conference. Each year, I have been very impressed with the calibre of presenters and panelists, and with the level of discourse. Last year, I had the great honour of introducing the keynote speaker, the Honourable Justice David Stratas of the Federal Court of Appeal. This year, I am again honoured to be taking part in a panel discussion on the subject of inter-provincial trade. The subject of my remarks will be based on my recent paper on the Comeau <\/em>decision, which can be read here<\/a>. I have also recently added a paper to SSRN on federalism generally, which can be read here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
