  • This article will complete the account of the teaching of public international law in Canadian law schools that appeared in this Yearbook in the 1970s. In the earlier articles, it was not possible, for want of material, to review the contributions to the teaching of international law that were made at the older law schools in Fredericton and Sherbrooke, and it seemed premature at the time to consider the situation at the newly founded schools in Victoria, Calgary, and Moncton. It is proposed now to complete the record, at least in a preliminary way, and to continue the process of laying a foundation from which one can usefully reflect on the teaching of the subject (and its presuppositions) since Maxmillien Bibaud first introduced it to Canadian students at the early date of 1851.

  • From 1872 until 1913 legal education in Manitoba was dependent almost entirely on apprenticeship, supplemented by private study. In 1913 the Law Society of Manitoba organized an improved programme of lectures for intending members of the bar and in 1914 the society entered into an agreement with the University of Manitoba to create and operate jointly the Manitoba Law School. The school's expenses were to be shared equally by the two parent bodies and its operations were to be supervised by a board of trustees consisting of two appointees chosen by each body and a chairman elected by the appointees. The school was modelled on the Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto and offered a three-year lecture course leading to both the LL.B. degree and admission to practice. As at Osgoode Hall, enrolment at the law school was not regarded as a substitute for service under articles. Classes were held in the morning and late afternoon and students were expected to carry out office duties during the remainder of the day.
