Fall Lineup at the Supreme Court of Canada

Earlier this week, the Toronto Star published a preview of some of the big cases to be heard this fall at the Supreme Court of Canada:

"Can a Canadian court curb Google search results worldwide if they advertise a Canadian company’s counterfeiting competitor? Does Facebook violate your privacy rights when it uses your name and photo in ads to endorse products after you 'liked' a website? What’s the proper test to release a convicted murderer on bail while he appeals a conviction?"

"They’re just some of the big questions among 29 appeals facing a short-handed Supreme Court of Canada as it starts a busy fall session next month."
