Annotation: From the Rowell-Sirois hearings of the Great Depression to the national unity wars of the late 1980s and early 1990s, James details how groups representing marginalized constituencies -- women, working-class people, and ethnocultural minorities -- were able to use the Canadian constitutional arena to pursue traditionally neglected aspirations and concerns.
