| Abstract
|
:
|
"The eighth edition of Criminal Justice in Canada chronicles many of the proposed and actual changes in criminal justice, ranging from the decriminalization of cannabis to the landmark ruling in R. v. Jordan, regarding the right to be tried in a timely manner. As with each previous edition, updated content has made the book more informative, engaging, and accessible. Since criminal justice is an ever-evolving field of study, the shifting contexts of the social world will continue to impact and influence our criminal justice system and its policy responses."--
