Call for Papers – Multidimensional Equality: The 40th Anniversary of the Coming into Force of Section 15

Published announcement: Call for Papers – Multidimensional Equality: The 40th Anniversary of the Coming into Force of Section 15

This announcement relates to the dates and conditions reproduced below. Check the organiser’s current notice before applying or planning travel.

Multidimensional Equality marked the fortieth anniversary of section 15 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms coming into force. The call connects intersecting grounds of equality to section 28 and section 35(4), while distinguishing judicial recognition from equality fully realised in practice. A research worksheet should identify the constitutional provision, the institution or decision, and the social outcome being examined. The source does not establish the outcome of proposed papers.
