Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
This paper argues that the complexities of the TWU law school case offer much to consider regarding the law of intervention in Charter litigation, including the issues of time and balance which preoccupied the Ontario courts, and the influence of public outcry on the Supreme Court. It concludes with a practical solution to the concerns raised by the Ontario courts: non-hearing motions; no arbitrary restrictions based on notions of "balance"; and the court would dictate the length of the factum and oral argument (if any) for each intervener. This would recognize the importance of allowing proposed interveners, who meet the test for intervention, to participate and allow the public to see that justice is done.
