This text comprises a collection of extensively-researched papers from leading authorities, and offers thought-provoking reflections about public decision-making, Charter rights and values, state neutrality and secularism, and the rule of law.
What is the role of the state in resolving social tensions rooted in competing morals and beliefs among citizens? And what is the role of the law in resolving such ‘values’ conflicts between the citizen and the state?
These questions are increasingly pertinent as Canada’s religious diversity expands, the administrative state extends into traditionally private sectors, and state actors seek to promote certain preferred values. These developments raise important questions about how, and why, differences ought to be accommodated in a free and democratic society.
The articles collected in this volume explore some of these themes and questions, and underscore the value of, and need for, continued dialogue and critical examination of these issues.
The volume is divided into four parts:
- Part I: Charter Values
- Part II: Rejuvenating Charter Protections
- Part III: State Neutrality, Secularism, and Religious Pluralism
- Part IV: Reconciling Competing Rights and Interests
