179. Matter and Energy: Carbon Pricing, Federalism, and the Future (with Steven Chaplin)

Earlier this summer, Jake Clark sat down with Professor Steven Chaplin to discuss the historical context of the Reference re Greenhouse Gas Pollution Act. Covering the context behind the 405-page case requires looking into the history of Canadian federalism, charting its constitutional origins and evolution in a world of rapid technological expansion. In doing so, they discussed watertight compartments, uranium regulation, and why there will always be jobs for lawyers.
