Title A name given to the resource Canadian Legal Systems Subject The topic of the resource Canada, law, legal systems, common law, civil law, aboriginal legal systems, oral traditions Description An account of the resource This section examines the legal systems that exist in Canada with a particular view to exploring the intersection of these systems with Canadian senses of identity. Canada has three primary legal traditions: indigenous law, civil law, and common law. Indigenous law is a legal system based on the values of indigenous persons and includes the use of oral traditions in a central way. Common law is a legal system which derives law from judicial precedent. Civil law, in contrast, adjudicates civil matters and is based solely on codified statute. In this section, we emphasize the interactions and conflicts among Canadian legal systems, as well as the result of said conflict in the justice system. Finally, we examine recommendations to improve congruence among the systems especially vis-à-vis indigenous law.
