A Canadian Legal Style
Let's make a style for us all to use, based on the McGill Guide, 6th ed.
This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Instead of commenting here, you should start a new discussion. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
What I have posted in the CSL tracker (https://www.zotero.org/trac/browser/csl/) at
https://www.zotero.org/trac/browser/csl/mcgill-legal.csl
is very imperfect.
At the suggestion of Bruce D'Arcus, I have created a description of some of the details of the Canadian form, and provided comparisons with the Bluebook Law Review style Bruce created at
https://www.zotero.org/trac/browser/csl/bluebook-law_review.csl
Here is a link to the cheatsheet:

And does it include specific issues that lead you to conclude the current style is "very imperfect"?
Thank you
I never did look at this style, BTW. I would have if the document was more accessible (e.g. HTML).

Because of the age of the thread, I figured that active development here was stopped.
I've tried to restart the conversation in the Style Requests forum:
http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/9489/style-request-canadian-uniform-legal-citation-mcgill-guide/#Item_1
I tried to summarize the state of affairs for the style; if you have any expertise to add or can comment on any omissions I've made, please do so.
Thanks
