CanCourts: Court of Appeal Judgments on Twitter

cancourts_smallI’ve pushed a few of CanLII’s RSS feeds to Twitter, thinking that some folks might find it handy to learn when new judgments are available. Specifically, I’ve created Twitter accounts for announcements about new Court of Appeal judgments from British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec. I’ll likely add accounts for other courts of appeal in due course. (I’ve checked with CanLII and they’re comfortable with this.)

I’ve gathered these under the rubric CanCourts and have put up a simple website explaining what I’ve done.

Please let me know if you experience any difficulties using these Twitter feeds.

  1. Great idea. I’m already a fan of the Ontario feed.

  2. Would this show different data than CanLII’s RSS feed, or is it intended simply to provide tweet updates?
    I would love a service that showed the style, the link, and also the auto-generated index terms that would appear in a search result list.
    As an RSS subscriber to CanLII’s ABCA RSS feed, I applaude everyone’s efforts in making newly added CanLII data available!
