In Sharp, the Supreme Court of Canada was confronted with the relationship between private international law, public law and the test for interpreting the territorial scope of statutes. In declaring the applicability of the international jurisdiction rules of the Civil Code of Québec to an application by the AMF to impose administrative sanctions under the Securities Act, the Court rejects the premise that the object of private international law consists of international private law relationships. This article argues the opposite view and provides a critical analysis of the approach taken to determine the jurisdiction of the TAMF under the Civil Code, and of the complementary relationship that the Supreme Court of Canada has found between private international law and the sufficient connection test in Unifund.

This paper examines some of the ways that Canadian art museum education departments used Instagram during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly for young virtual visitors. The author studied this use of Instagram through a visual content analysis of ten Canadian museums’ educational posts, stories and IGTV videos, using the theory of connectivism and the way learners can engage with learning opportunities outside of their physical environments. The findings from this study reveal that Instagram became instrumental in allowing museum educators to continue their mission of promoting meaningful engagement with collections for their visitors.

This paper examines the experience of the burden of representation as lived by spokespersons involved in the fight against racism in Quebec. Semi-directed interviews with fifteen of these activists revealed mixed feelings about their role, which are expressed through the lexicon of burden and heaviness. According to the critical literature on affect and representation, this sense of burden is not an isolated, individual feeling; it is, in part, a result of the economy of racialized and minoritized representation that “rations” access to spaces of visibility and power by limiting the resources available to racialized people, and restricting the ways in which they may appear in public spaces. Therefore, to better make sense of the spokespersons' affective experience of racialized representation, this article adopts a theoretical framework that understands racialization as an affective process produced by relationships and encounters and apprehends affects as situated social and cultural practices embedded in power relations. Affects are also apprehended through a decolonial approach that takes into account the asymmetry of affective norms and—by ricochet—the affective performances that can be expected or demanded of antiracism spokespersons. The analysis of the semi-structured interviews through the lens of affects made it possible to identify four affective practices implemented by the spokespersons: awareness-raising, adaptation, protection, and contestation. These different affective practices are both complementary and in tension. They are complementary because they are used by spokespeople at different times, depending on the situation and the demands of their representational work. They also are in tension, because they reveal spokespeople's ambivalence about their role: between what they see as their role as mediators and translators, on the one hand, and their desire to shake up the status quo and the dominant “rules of feeling,” on the other. By examining these affective practices of racialization, this article sheds light on the processes by which racialization and denial of racism (re)shape the affective demands of spokesperson work, and consequently prompts a rethinking of the affective practices of antiracist political representation.
