Power and Authority in Canada
This course introduces the political institutions underpinning Canadian politics and democracy. It examines political decision-making with an emphasis on the Constitution, the Charter, the Prime Minister and Cabinet, the Legislature and the courts. Throughout, it assesses the location and exercise of power in Canada's political process. An understanding of political institutions is required to evaluate the health of Canadian democracy, and is necessary for a career in, or interacting with, government. (Canadian)
