Reviews

David L. Weiden:
Governing With the Charter offers a number of challenging insights into the new era of Canadian politics. The theory of multiple rights activism, the historical analysis of framers’ intent, the reconceptualization of judicial activism, and the normative implications for the future make this a most satisfying volume for the scholar of Canadian law, as well as for the general comparative courts researcher.

Roy B. Flemming, Professor of Political Science, Texas A&M University, author of Tournament of Appeals: Granting Judicial Review in Canada:
Perhaps the best single attempt at explaining Charter litigation and politics. It puts the debate over the Charter, Supreme Court, and parliamentary supremacy in a refreshingly new light, using not only some clear thinking about the problem but also, new information.
