Excerpt from Report of an Argument Before the Supreme Court Submitted by the Railway Committee of the Privy Council: Arising on an Application of the Hon. Joseph Martin, Railway Commissioner of Manitoba Mr. Blake - I appear, with my learned friends, Mr. Robin son and Mr. Clark, for the Canadian Pacific Railway Company in this case. As I understand the position of affairs, the Railway Commissioner Of Manitoba applied to the Railway Committee Of the Privy Council to authorize a crossing on the Canadian Pacific Railway. On that the Canadian Pacific Railway Com pany intervened and raised a preliminary legal objection that the Railway Commissioner had no authority to construct a line cross ing the Canadian Pacific Railway, in consequence of the illegality of the statute. That question is now submitted to you. Ritchie, C. J. - Would not that question come more logically from the party who claims the right to cross? Mr. Blake - J am quite willing that my learned friends should allege that there is no presumption in favor of the validity of the statute, if they choose. The whole question depends, as I under stand it, upon the validity of the local statute. That is the ques tion - is the local legislation valid or void? I understand the legal presumption to be prima fade in favor of the local statute. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
