Description:
<p><em>The Charter of Rights and Freedoms</em>, 7e, provides an accessible yet thorough account of the?constitutional protection and practical application of rights under the Canadian<em> Charter</em>. This seventh edition includes, for the first time, an analysis of the protection of Aboriginal and Treaty rights. </p>
<p>Among the important recent cases discussed and comprehensively explored are <em>Conseil scolaire francophone de la Colombie-Britannique</em> (refusing to accept that controlling the cost of the right to minority-language education would justify limiting right under section 1); the <em>Frank</em> decision (striking down the disenfranchisement of Canadian citizens living abroad); and an important new remedies case, <em>Ontario (Attorney General) v G</em> (affecting suspended declarations of invalidity and applicable exemptions). </p>
<p>Recent developments in the section 2(b) right to freedom of religion include the <em>Ktunaxa Nation </em>decision rejecting an Indigenous group’s claim that a development project would infringe their right to freedom of religion, and the <em>Trinity Western</em> decisions dealing with a religiously motivated covenant that discriminated against prospective LGBTQ2S+ law students. Also discussed are the developments in freedom of expression, including election spending and journalists being required to reveal their sources; the important role played by the <em>Charter</em> in the criminal process, including the <em>Boudreault </em>decision, extending the protection against cruel and unusual punishment; and equality rights, including decisions on pay equity and the <em>Fraser </em>case, dealing with pension benefits for women. <br>
