Difficulties of divided jurisdiction : a study prepared for the Royal Commission on Dominion-Provincial Relations / by J.A. Corry. : Z1-1937/2-41-3E-PDF

"The most important fields of divided jurisdiction, based on interpretation of the British North America Act by courts, are marketing, regulation of insurance companies, fisheries, and the settlement of labour disputes. Professor Corry concludes that " when the Dominion and province share the administration of some single function of government, it ... leads, in most cases, to friction, waste and inefficiency." He adds, however, that Canadians may prefer, for the sake of local autonomy, to pay these costs rather than to set up unitary control where that is the only practicable alternative"--Editorial Foreword, page 5.
