Three new things I learned:
- The clause was included at the last minute during constitutional negotiations. It was a result of what became known as the “Kitchen Accord.”
- Section 33 of the Charter allows a government to bypass a court’s ruling
- Several provincial leaders were concerned that the Charter would give courts and judges too much power to interpret its meaning. They feared this would restrict the right of provincial governments to make laws as they saw fit.
Two things I want to learn more about :
- Section 33 of the Charter allows a government to bypass a court’s ruling
- Kitchen Accord
One question I have is: How do people feel about its use?
