I'd like to see a list of his notable judgements here, along with speculation into his influence on Canadian common law. (for example: Bardal v. Globe & Mail Ltd. (1960), 24 D.L.R. (2d) 140, [1960] O.W.N. 253; ). Although federalism perhaps does not permit analogues of Britain's Lord Denning to function in Canada, McRuer might be pretty close. I realize that's an opinionated comment but I suspect it's been echoed by others who know much more about the subject than I do. I hope that one of those people will take it upon themselves to flesh out this entry. Joshua Bearden 04:13, 12 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
