This collection seeks to excavate and explain a variety of foundational elements of the Canadian Constitution. Some of these elements reside in the text, some beneath it, and some only come into focus when the written and unwritten portions of the Constitution speak to each other. The result is an enriching exploration of Canada’s constitutional architecture that will not only aid the work of judges, lawyers and scholars. It will benefit anyone who wishes to grow in knowledge of — and appreciation for — Canada’s supreme law.
