Quebec's provincial government alarmed many when it enacted its odious sign law restricting the use of English. Although this blatant human rights violation was struck down by the Supreme courts of Quebec and Canada, the provincial government enacted its sign law anyway. How? Quebec invoked the infamous Notwithstanding Clause to over-rule the highest courts in the land! Join the author as he explores Quebecs controversial use of Section 33 -- and the danger the Notwithstanding clause poses to all Canadians.
