About this listen
In this first episode, we talk to Professor Eric Adams (University of Alberta) about the history of, thinking behind, and debates surrounding the notwithstanding clause. Professor Adams provides an overview of how the clause works, walks us through the various limits that are baked into it, and tells us why Western provincial premiers on different sides of the political aisle argued for its inclusion in the Charter. He also talks about why we're seeing an uptick in recourse to the clause, and whether this is connected to global political trends like the rise of populism.
