If the Bora Laskin Law Library does not have the item, you may want to check the York University Library Catalogue (4700 Keele St.) or the Great Library Catalogue (130 Queens St. E., Osgoode Subway station) to see if either of those libraries has it.A limited amount of Canadian caselaw can be accessed for free on the Internet at CANLII: http://www.canlii.org.
