Abstract |
The article analyses the status of
transparency of judicial power in Canada. The author reveals such
characteristics of transparency as the existence of
clear criteria of the selection of judges,
facts of ignoring transparency of consultative procedures in the process of the
selection of judges; statutory wage rate for judges; corporate regulation of
norms of behavior and assessment of judges’ activity; existence of facilitating
mechanisms of transparency of judicial procedure. The conclusion is made that
providing transparency of judicial power is the guarantee of public credit to courts
without which fair justice is impossible.
