This review of Peter Biro's The Notwithstanding Clause and the Canadian Charter: Rights, Reforms, and Controversies praises the book for bringing together an intellectually diverse group of scholars to discuss section 33 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, better known as the 'notwithstanding clause'. Despite heated disagreement, the diversity in methodologies and perspectives make this volume an ideal starting place to examine the normative considerations that are relevant to analyzing section 33.
