Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the controversy surrounding a provincial law concerning the Jesuit order in Quebec, passed in 1888. The author presents select debates from the Canadian House of Commons to provide a historical account of the discussion over whether or not the Canadian Governor General should disallow this law. In doing so, the author explores themes of religion, education, minority rights, and governance, all within a historical context. The author argues that the law was a violation of the Canadian constitution and that disallowance was warranted, shedding light on the complex relationship between church and state within the Canadian constitutional framework. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the delicate balance between religious freedom and the separation of church and state.
