We're delighted to announce the publication of a new special issue of the Constitutional Forum. This special issue comprises a series of short commentaries on the Ontario Court of Appeal's recent judgment in Fair Voting BC v Canada (Attorney General), in which the Court rejected claims that Canada's "first-past-the-post" electoral system unjustifiably violates sections 3 and 15(1) of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms (the right to vote and the right to equality). You can access the full issue for free via the links below.
