Do you think life in this country would be substantially different if we just used one? Or, given what you've learnt and how diverse Canada is, do you believe we'd need both as fundamental laws in society?]]> 2023-02-17 20:17:35 UTC https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486754038 Reading 2 tehilladrorbenigeri https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486755768 First, why did such very different legal systems evolve in France and in England?

France chose to rely on state-employed judges precisely because local feudal lords were too powerful: there was no possibility of effective local justice when these lords' interests were involved.

England, in contrast, had weaker local magnates, and so its juries were less vulnerable to subversion and could be trusted with adjudication. Moreover, these differences in basic conditions persisted for centuries, mainly because of persistently greater power of local magnates in France than in England.

Legal systems and traditions interpret "normative" behavior differently, based on historical, cultural, and philosophical considerations. As he strongly suggests changing the legal system because it affects education, how would you do it, if someone gave you all the power? Where would you start? ]]> 2023-02-17 20:31:30 UTC https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486763375 Reading 3 tehilladrorbenigeri https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486764376 Will laws, normative distinctions, and traditions always influence their relationship? Would law always take precedence?

Why or why not?]]> 2023-02-17 20:34:13 UTC https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486765146 Reading 5 tehilladrorbenigeri https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486765625 We know how Quebec's complex use of precedent is shaped by many elements, including cultural and historical influences. Would you think that, given the multitude of variables, the decision-making process would need to change? If so, how?]]> 2023-02-17 20:34:59 UTC https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486765625 Reading 5 tehilladrorbenigeri https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486765882 In your opinion, does procedural law have an influence on substantive law?]]> 2023-02-17 20:35:25 UTC https://padlet.com/tehilladrorbenigeri/woyi7ay8g4ugifz7/wish/2486765882
