Canada House of Commons v. Vaid , 2005 1 S.C.R. 667, 2005 SCC 30 is the leading decision of the Supreme Court of Canada on parliamentary privilege . Satnam Vaid was a chauffeur employed by the Canadian House of Commons until he was dismissed. Vaid filed a complaint to the Canadian Human Rights Commission for his dismissal. The House of Commons argued that its reason for firing him was protected under parliamentary privilege and so it could not be reviewed by any tribunal or court. The Supreme Court held that parliamentary privilege was not so broad as to protect employment matters. Justice Binnie, writing for a unanimous Court held that I have no doubt that privilege attaches to the House s relations with some of its employees, but the appellants have insisted on the broadest possible coverage without leading any evidence to justify such a sweeping immunity, or a lesser immunity, or indeed any evidence of necessity at all. ... The appellants having failed to establish the privilege in the broad and all inclusive terms asserted, the respondents are entitled to have the appeal disposed of according to the ordinary employment and human rights law that Parliament has enacted with respect to employees within federal legislative jurisdiction.

Kali for Women was an important start up feminist publisher in India . Urvashi Butalia and Ritu Menon set up Kali for Women in 1984, arguably the first Indian publishing house dedicated to publishing on and for women. When they decided to take this step, Butalia had worked with Oxford University Press and Zed Books in Delhi, while Ritu Menon was a well known scholar. They started with very little capital but with an urgent sense that they had to make Indian women s voices heard, not just through academic publishing but also through activist works, translation and fiction. They were followed by other Indian presses concerned with gender and social issues such as Bhatkal and Sen who publish the imprints Stree and Samya and Tulika Books . Widely regarded as India s answer to Virago Press , Kali for Women published some pathbreaking books such as the Hindi reference book Shareer ki Jankari About the Body . Shareer ki Jankari was written by 75 village women and sold by the women themselves at a special price in the villages. Butalia and Menon were committed to social change through publishing and, almost as a byproduct, they also innovated in the ways they produced and sold their books. Shareer ki Jankari was also extremely frank about sex and women s bodies including issues such as menstrual taboo s, leading to some commentators being shocked. Till then academic presses had largely ignored the markets for cheap, mass literature. ref Jyoti Puri, Woman, Body, Desire in Postcolonial India Narratives of Gender and Sexuality London Routledge, 1999 ref Kali for Women also published The Other Side of Silence by Butalia an account of Partition through women s oral histories , Radha Kumar s The History of Doing , the ecofeminist Vandana Shiva s landmark work Staying Alive , and Kumkum Sangari and Sudesh Vaid s landmark work Recasting Women Essays in Colonial History . ref Paola Bacchetta, Reinterrogating Partition Violence Voices of Women Children Dalits in India s Partition , Feminist ... more details
