At first glance, one might think that in both countries, wills are simply applied to the letter and in all their provisions. However, certain nuances become apparent to an attentive observer like Mr. Renaud de Bottini, who clearly highlights them. But the rest of the study reveals a crucial difference: while in France a will must necessarily be applied exactly as it was made, in the province of Quebec its content can be modified. It is possible, in fact, to obtain intervention in this matter from the provincial parliament, in the form of a private law or bill. Legislative measures of this kind are characteristic of Canadian public law, which is Anglo-Saxon in inspiration. The legislature traditionally has the power to directly regulate specific situations at the request of interested parties; The kind of law that results from this activity therefore departs from the aspect of generality that is one of the characteristics of law. (…) Through reasoning of great philosophical scope, the author arrives at the following conclusion: initially of religious origin, the respect accorded to the will stems above all, nowadays, from the role attributed to human will, to the personality of the individual, a personality which thus survives itself beyond the grave.” (Pierre Azard, RIDC no. 1\/1961, p. 227).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mémoire du Droit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51963881390427,"sku":"51087","price":60.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/0163\/5419\/files\/51087-1.jpg?v=1766948841","url":"https:\/\/www.memoiredudroit.fr\/en\/products\/51087-de-etude-comparative-sur-l","provider":"La Mémoire du Droit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
