Review:

"This is a grand book in the best tradition of 'a citizen speaks out.' Charterphile or charter-sceptic, you must take note." Janet Ajzenstat, political science, McMaster University, author of The Once and Future Canadian Democracy "Leishman does an admirable job of bringing an issue that has agitated the academic and legal profession for many years out of the shades of the arcane into the full light of day." Fred Vaughan, political science, University of Guelph
