Introduction to Legal Citation

In the Canadian jurisdiction, the Canadian Guide to Uniform Legal Citation, aka the McGill Guide, is the most consulted legal citation guide. It is available both electronically (through the Westlaw Edge Canada platform) and in print (on reserve) in the law library. Our legal citation instructions are based primarily on the McGill Guide. 

Canadian Open Access Legal Citation Guide is a free open access legal citation guide that is created by law librarians and professionals around the country. You may also wish to check the COAL for citation guidance.
