污污草莓视频 University鈥檚 Faculty of Law and the Peter Mackell Chair in Federalism are proud to announce that the Baxter Family Competition on Federalism will be returning for a second edition in early 2019. This prestigious bi-annual competition is made possible through the generous support of Rachel Baxter (BSc鈥�84, BCL鈥�88) and Colin Baxter (BCL鈥�90, LLB鈥�90), who both practice law in Ottawa.

The overarching goal of the Baxter Family Competition on Federalism is to advance research and foster informed debate on federalism by young jurists (including law students, law PhD Candidates, junior legal scholars and junior lawyers) from around the world.

In 2017, we received close to 40 high-quality submissions, with authors originating from nine countries. We are confident that the 2019 edition will again attract a rich diversity of contributions.

The three competition finalists will be given the unique opportunity to present their papers at a Symposium in May 2019. First-, second- and third-place winners will receive prizes of $5000, $3000, and $1000 respectively. The prizes are awarded by an international jury.

Participants are invited to submit an original essay related to any aspect of federal theory or practice, by February 11, 2019. Comparative angles to federalism are particularly encouraged.
