NotParticipating Law Society of Upper Canada v. Skapinker , 1984 1 S.C.R. 357 is a leading Supreme Court of Canada decision on mobility rights protected under Section Six of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms section 6 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms . It is also the first Charter decision to reach the Supreme Court since its enactment in 1982. Background Joel Skapinker was a citizen of South Africa residing in Canada who applied to the Ontario bar to practice law. The bar refused his application as the Law Society Act required that he be a Canadian citizen. Skapinker brought an application to have the provision of the Act requiring Canadian citizenship be held inoperative on the basis that it violated section 6 2 b of the Charter. At trial, the application was denied. However, on appeal the Court held that his mobility rights were in fact violated. Opinion of the Court The unanimous Court held that Skapinker s rights were not violated by the Law Society Act. Estey J., writing for the Court, acknowledged the difficulty in interpreting the Charter as it was not to be treated like a statute. He examined the headings of each section and tried to reconcile them with the wording of the sections. He noted several factors that must be considered the degree of difficulty because of ambiguity or obscurity in construing the section the length and complexity ....
