Instructions
Task 1: Choose a topic question based on a landmark Supreme Court of Canada decision and write a thesis statement
This task is similar to the ‘Formulate questions’ part of the legal inquiry process – except in this case, the question has been provided for you. Select one of the following four research questions. Choose a side and develop a thesis statement. This thesis statement will become the basis of your argumentative paragraph in Task 5.
Note: , clearly indicate whether you are answering question a, b, c, or d.
In 2013, in the case of Italic text startBedford v. CanadaItalic text End, the Supreme Court of Canada struck down specific provisions in the Italic text startCriminal CodeItalic text End that made certain activities related to prostitution illegal. Do you agree with the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision in this case, or do you think that the government is justified in creating new laws that regulate prostitution in Canada?
In 1988, the Supreme Court of Canada in the case of Italic text startR. v. MorgentalerItalic text End struck down the Italic text startCriminal CodeItalic text End prohibitions that prevented women from obtaining legal abortions, except in very specific circumstances. What impact do you think this decision has had on Canadian society?
In 2006, the Supreme Court of Canada considered the case of Italic text startMultani v. Commission scolaire Marguerite-BourgeoysItalic text End. In this case, the Supreme Court of Canada decided that a student of the Sikh faith must be permitted to wear their kirpan (ceremonial knife) at school, as long as the kirpan was worn under certain conditions. The court ruled that not to allow the student to wear the kirpan at school would unjustly interfere with his freedom of religion. In what ways do you think this decision will impact other areas of Canadian society?
In 2014, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled on the issue of physician-assisted suicide in the case of Italic text startCarter v. CanadaItalic text End. In this decision, the court determined that the Italic text startCriminal Code Italic text Endprovision, which banned assisted suicide, was unconstitutional and that physician-assisted suicide must be allowed for people who are mentally competent and who are suffering from an irremediable condition. What impact do you think this decision has had on Canadian society?
Task 2: Complete research to support the thesis statement
Just like the ‘Evaluate and organize’ part of the legal inquiry process, you will use the following Research Organizer to record and organize the research to support your answer. You should access and save a copy of this blank organizer to your computer, as you will need to use the organizer again in a later learning activity. This task will also involve you working on the ‘Interpret and analyse’ part of the inquiry process as you begin to reflect on the research you’ve gathered.
TASK 3: Do an argumentative paragraph
Continuing with the ‘Interpret and analyse’ component of the legal inquiry process, you will also begin to move into the ‘Evaluate and draw conclusions’ portion as you build your paragraph, being sure to use evidence and/or examples to support your main thesis. Recall that you learned how to write an argumentative paragraph in Learning Activity 1.4. You’ll find a reminder of these steps in the following document, How To make An Argumentative Paragraph. If you wish to use this organizer to plan your paragraph, you should access and save a copy of it to your computer, as you may wish to use it again in a later learning activity.
Task 4: Recheck the work by proofreading carefully
An important part of any legal inquiry is being able to clearly communicate your findings and conclusions. Once you have written the first draft of your paragraph, read through it again to make sure that it all makes sense. When you write your final copy, add any necessary citations, and be sure to check for correct spelling and grammar. (Do not rely on spell check alone: while you may have spelled a word correctly, you might have used the wrong word!) Be sure to refer to the documents reminding you how to write an argumentative paragraph and how to use APA is most to ensure that you have completed all the required steps.
