Comprehensive content

This guide discusses the overarching objectives of the legislation, with an emphasis on the Act's most important sections. The innovative format of this book – part casebook, part annotation – means that readers have access to excerpts from both the relevant case law and panel reports written by the administrative tribunal that reviews environmental projects, as well as detailed analyses of those excerpts.

Focusing on the substantive elements of the CEAA and how to interpret them, Guide to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2016 Edition features:

  • Extensive research
  • A structured approach – most of the topics covered follow a similar six-step approach: introductory comment to provide context; key provisions; legislative history; principles and key excerpts from court cases; principles and key excerpts from panel review reports; and commentary
  • Expert insights – this guide is written by a certified environmental law specialist with more than 25 years of practice and environmental assessment instructor experience
  • Key primary source material – key excerpts from the relevant caselaw and panel reports are readily accessible

The entire CEAA and its two most relevant regulations are reproduced in this volume, along with a listing of all the Federal EA Panel Reports published since 1975.
