Through a combination of public policy analysis, historical research, and legal analysis, R.Brian Howe and David Johnson trace the evolution of human rights policy within this country and explore the stresses placed on human rights commissions resulting from greater fiscal restraints and society's rising expectations for equality rights over the past two decades.The authors analyse sources of these tensions in relation to the delivery of equality rights in both federal and provincial jurisdictions since the Second World War. Through a series of interviews with human rights commission officials and a survey of advocacy groups, business organizations, and human rights staff the authors explore the performance and the internal workings of these. Howe and Johnson also analyse human rights commissions in light of the theoretical literature and empirical data, and discuss the political and legal contexts in which the commissions operate, and the reform measures that have been implemented. 606 $aCivil rights$zCanada 606 $aHuman rights$zCanada 606 $aAdministrative agencies$zCanada 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCivil rights 615 0$aHuman rights 615 0$aAdministrative agencies 676 $a323/.0971 700 $aHowe$b Robert Brian$0991552 702 $aJohnson$b David, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456148803321 996 $aRestraining equality$92457301 997 $aUNINA
