Annotated acts provide section by section commentary and are a great way to get a feel for the intent of a legislative provision, and to see how it has been considered by the courts.
Lexis Advance Quicklaw has launched a new annotated legislation feature. This is organized by jurisdiction and includes expert commentary, annotations, and explanatory notes for selected acts.
You may find other annotated acts in our collection through the library catalogue and our key legal treatises and textbooks guide. For legislation without an annotated act you may achieve similar results by noting up a section of legislation in Quicklaw, Westlaw, or CanLII.
