REASONS
FOR ORDER
NADON
J.A.
[1]
The
Attorney General of Quebec’s motion will be dismissed, because under section 57
of the Federal Courts Acts, R.S.C. 1985, c. F-7, she is entitled to
adduce evidence and make submissions to this Court “in respect of the
constitutional question” and, furthermore, under subsection 57(5), she is
deemed to be a party to the proceedings for the purpose of any appeal in
respect of the constitutional question.
[2]
Consequently,
the Attorney General of Quebec is entitled to participate in the appeal as of
right without necessarily obtaining leave of this Court.
[3]
In
the event the parties cannot agree on a schedule regarding the submission of
their respective records and their memoranda, they can ask the Court to
determine this issue.
