Abstract

This article discusses the different socio-economic legislation that the Canadian federal government introduced or passed during this inflation crisis. Its discourse is positioned in relation to existing and past social realities. Reflecting on the ontology of these laws, this article suggests that the federal government has displayed a sense of normative leadership toward citizens. Moreover, this institutional dynamic should not be perceived as a paradigm shift from its political economy of neoliberalism. That said, this study also offers few directions for future research on the significance of examining legal texts as artifacts of public governance and crisis management.
