Governing from the Blog

I am an Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Waterloo. My research focuses on the intersection of governance, constitutional law, and public policy in Canada, including work on Parliament, the Supreme Court, the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, constitutional change, and free expression. I am the author of Governing from the Bench: The Supreme Court of Canada and the Judicial Role (UBC Press, 2013) and Constitutional Pariah: Reference re Senate Reform and the Future of Parliament (UBC Press, 2021), and the editor of Constitutional Amendment in Canada (University of Toronto Press, 2016) and Policy Change, Courts, and the Canadian Constitution (University of Toronto Press, 2018).
