Professor Wernick's expertise includes:
- Governance and political decision making in Canada
- Canadian politics
- Federalism
"It will be interesting to see whether the premiers rise above the usual reflexive asking the federal government for things and take some collective actions on their own. There is ample scope for them to do so. And the tension of Ontario Premier Doug Ford against his Alberta counterpart Danielle Smith should be interesting."

Professor Mendes’ research includes constitutional and human rights law, global governance, public international law. He can discuss how what looks like a likely substantial imposition of tariffs by Donald Trump by August 1 would impact on different provinces, with Ontario and Quebec potentially facing the biggest impact from the likely refusal to lower the sector tariffs on autos and steel. Bad times are ahead, especially for Central Canada.
