The Law Reform Commission of Canada released a study into federal expropriation law in Canada in 1976. Although a new federal expropriation statute had been enacted only six years earlier, this report contained numerous recommendations for additional law reform. Copies of the report, available in both English and French, are available by clicking on the links below.

The report is saved in "pdf" format which requires Adobe Acrobat Reader software to view. If you do not have this software installed you can download a free copy from the Adobe website.

The Law Reform Commission of Canada ceased operations in 1992. A new federal law reform agency known as the Law Commission of Canada was established by legislation in 1997. However, the new Commission does not appear to distribute any of the previous Commission's published works nor have they produced any further studies of expropriation law.
