An Inquiry Into the Norm of Non-discrimination in Canada

Résumé du livre

From the Foreword: The regulation of human rights is becoming an inceasingly important aspect of Canadian industrial relations. A recent expansion of human rights legislation has been given further impetus by the constitutional protection of fundamental rights now provided by Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms. A particularly important aspect of this expansion of human rights legislation is its impact on the workplace and the employment relationship. This study traces the evolution of human rights legislation in Canada from its early beginnings up to and including its constitutional entrenchment by the Charter.
