Making Equality Rights Real: Securing Substantive Equality Under the Charter

"Making Equality Rights Real" critically assesses the state of equality jurisprudence from many angles. Collectively, these 13 essays attempt to advance substantive equality as section 15 of the "Charter" moves into its second generation. Each of the papers in this collection aims to deepen our understandings of the dynamics of inequality and oppression and so produce a richer more nuanced legal framework for eradicating discrimination and promoting substantive equality. With only two decades' experience with "Charter" equality litigation, the project to secure substantive equality remains a work in progress.
