The Marshall Rothstein Pages

Mr. Justice Marshall Rothstein of the Federal Court of Appeal has been nominated by Prime Minister Harper to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court of Canada. The Office of the Commissioner of Judicial Affairs has put together a website on Mr. Justice Rothstein that contains a good deal of information about the person and his professional work.

However, we at Slaw felt it could and should be improved upon. Accordingly we present the following further resources concerning the soon-to-be newest member of the Court:

• the buzz — get the latest news, read some important commentary
• The Selection process — history and debate
• 10 things Mr. Justice Rothstein will add to the Court
• the ad hoc committee — what, who, when…
• questions for the judge — some questions we’d like to see asked at the interview
• a list of cases decided by Mr. Justice Rothstein (mostly hyperlinked to the judgment)
• a view from above — how Mr. Justice Rothstein’s judgments have fared at the Supreme Court
