Opinion on National Reservations to the MAI
by Barry Appleton LL.B, L.L.M, Appleton & Associates
(1997).
Appleton & Associates, International lawyers based in Toronto and
New York, offer legal answers to questions about Reservation Statements
made by national governments on International Treaties, as well as
specific answers to the question of how Canada's reservations to the MAI
might be interpreted by an international tribunal. Focuses on Canada's
concerns about the MAI's effect on Canadian healthcare, public
education, childcare, social services, culture, and environment. Points
out areas where the federal government's reservations are unclear,
lacking, and/or their measures, in the form of country-specific
"exceptions," fail to provide adequate government policy protection
against certain MAI obligations.
