1) Carter v. Canada (Attorney General)

2) Canada v. Bedford

1) Using one case example from above, explain how the Supreme Court uses the Charter to 'limit' the scope of legislation and/or administrative power in Canada. Do you think this is a legitimate role for the courts to play? If so, why? If not, why? In your own estimation, was the case 'rightly decided?'

2) In your own words explain whether or not an entrenched 'bill of rights' is desirable? Does an entrenched 'bill of rights' promote the central principles of both liberalism and democracy? If so, how does it accomplish that end? If not, explain how an entrenched "bill of rights" can threaten a liberal-democracy. (Provide at least one case example from above or our text to support your argument.)
