title: [Legal protection of the mentally ill and the mentally retarded.].
abstract: In this article the author describes the current legal system as it applies to the legal protection of the mentally ill and retarded. He speaks mainly of the laws and regulations which apply to every Quebec citizen; of the civil procedure code ; of the law for protection of the mentally ill, of the law on Public Curatorship; of the law on the Social Affairs commission and the regulations which define the role of the various organisations. He concludes by suggesting two things : the distribution of the texts of the laws and regulations to those concerned and the giving of courses on them to future practitioners.
