Quicklaw and Westlawecarswell
When I first put up this site, I described Quicklaw as "the one indispensable Canadian commercial site." Times change. I am now using Quicklaw and Westlawecarswell. Both are surprisingly easy to operate and very helpful in researching Canadian and other statute and case law. The downside is that both are expensive.
