In about two weeks, that is one of the potential final exam questions i have for one of my courses. Needless to say, i’m a tad bit worried. i know next to nothing about the structure of the Canadian political system. We have to do a comparative analysis of other judicial reviews of federalism in countries such as the UK, US, and Australia.
If anyone has a few ideas to throw at me, would be much appreciated. i’m not asking for a whole thesis, obviously…but some beginning ideas that would help me get past my current writer’s block.
What exactly does Judicial review of Federalism mean?
The UK is not a federation and unlike the US and I think Canada does not have a real separation of power between the judiicary and state?
forewarning: completely pointless post indicative of a corrupt brain, an idle mind, and a redundant internet connection. on the positive side, i've bumped up your thread.
i dont know if this helps with your term paper, but i'd go with muchos gracias. muchachos gracias means boy's thanks, which frankly means nothing unless you're infact a boy. even then it wouldnt make that much sense but im guessing you would be trying to offer the minimum default thanks a boy offers, as opposed to your own, customised thanks. i guess that would be my interpretation of it, but then why go there. just a simple thanks is good enough, and you dont need to specify if its a boy's thanks or a regular one.
Ravage, hahhaa.. thanks yaar. That was very helpful :D Seriously, thanks... yeah i wasn't sure if muchachos was even a word. Now i know that it is a word, and what it means. Thanks
Zakk, Thanks yaar for bumping up my thread :( i really appreciate it. Sorry for being an idiot, i have been somewhat busy past few days, will reply to your awfully kind pm soon Insha'Allah.
This is my doodling notes re: judicial review of federalism. Please excuse my messy handwriting; when i doodle, i don't care what my handwriting looks like. i am not always this messy. Anyways, apparently from my notes, judicial review of federalism exists on a continuum/spectrum - at one end you have the US, which has the highest judicial review of F. At the other end, you have the UK, which has the lowest. Somewhere inbetween are Canada and Australia.

Prior to the Charter, Canada was closer towards the British model. With the adoption of the Charter, we're closer to the American model (at least that's what books say). Anyhow, i have some books regarding Australia's federal model, and i'll be studying in detail today... i think i'll figure it out Insha'Allah.
