The Canadian Charter Of Rights And Freedoms
This course examines the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms from an interdisciplinary perspective. The course begins by discussing various theories regarding the legitimacy of judicial review. This approach is carried forward in detailed analyses of sections 1, 2, 7, 15, 25, 33 and 35 of the Constitution Act. These analyses are done through studying decisions of the Supreme Court of Canada and examining them from sociological, political science and other social science perspectives.
