Discrimination and Equality Law Disability Rights and Representation Legal Rights and Human Rights

Abstract

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms has been used to strike down fifty-eight statutes that permitted the exclusion of persons with disabilities, women, ethnic minorities, or gays and lesbians. While some conservatives see this trend as "rulings for the many by the few," those representing excluded groups view their successful court challenges against unjust laws as a long-awaited coming of age, allowing them to finally obtain a seat at the table.
