    Law Midterm Studyguide

    Citizens Insurance v. Parsons was an 1881 decision, which established the test to determine governmental jurisdiction. The constitutional issue in this case concerned the validity of the Ontario Fire Insurance Policy Act. Parsons owned a hardware store in Orangeville, which was destroyed by fire one evening. Insured by Citizens Insurance, Parsons asked the company to cover him for his loss. Citizens Insurance refused to pay out on the basis that Parsons failed to comply with the conditions that had been written into the insurance contract. Parsons argued that the conditions failed to comply with provisions in the Ontario Fire Insurance Policy Act. Citizens Insurance argued that the Ontario law is invalid, as it imposes a contract with insurance companies – an aspect of trade and commerce that falls to the jurisdiction of the federal government. Parsons, however, argued that this was an issue of civil and property rights. This case went to trial, and eventually went to the JCPC, who acknowledged that there was a contradiction between S. 91(2) and S. 93(13). The JCPC then decided that although there was a possibility for overlap, there should be some way of determining which level of government has jurisdiction over what subject matter. This lead to the creation of the Parson’s Test. In the Parsons Test, you must consider if the dispute falls within one of the jurisdictions in Section 92 of the provinces. If the answer is no, then the jurisdiction automatically falls to the federal government. If the answer is yes, does it also fall under the power of Section 91? If the answer is no, then it is a provincial area of jurisdiction. However, if the answer is yes to both questions, then the courts must reconcile the constitution in some way as to figure out which level of government has responsibility for jurisdiction.…

    Malay Peninsula: An Overview

    Throughout its history, the Malay Peninsula has been occupied by many countries with different religions, cultures and constitutional traditions. These include Portugal (1511-1641), Holland (1641-1826), Britain (1824-1948) and later Japan, (1941-1945).These occupations in turn also impacted its political and constitutional development over the years. However, its first true constitutional charter was not written until 1957 when the British - who had regained the territory in 1948 following Japanese expulsion at the end of World War II - agreed with the Malay States to create the Federation of Malaya. An independent Multinational Commission, set up during the London Constitutional Conference of 1956, drafted the document, which took effect on 31 August 1957. Except for a brief period in 1969 when race riots resulted in its suspension, this constitution- though amended several times – remains the fundamental framework of the country to date.…
