New CanLII features: copy-paste citations, sharing, snippets and spell checker

Document headers contain a full citation with a short URL and retrieval date, allowing you to conveniently copy-and-paste this citation into another document.

Sharing is made easier with Twitter and LinkedIn buttons at the top of all documents posted on CanLII.

Snippets in Search Results
Search results contain snippets of texts from the corresponding document, with searched terms highlighted.

Spell Checker (“Did you mean…?”)
When your query contains a term which seems to have been mistyped, CanLII provides an alternative query containing a similar term, which might improve your results. When available, this suggested query is located underneath the search template. To launch a corrected query, simply click on it.
