The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms became an entrenched part of the Canadian Constitution on April 17, 1982. The Charter represented a significant change in Canadian constitutional order and carried the courts, and the Supreme Court in particular, decisively into some of the biggest controversies in Canadian politics. Although the impact of the Charter on Canadian law and society was profound, a new status quo has been established. Even though there will be future Charter surprises and decisions that will claim news headlines, Peter J. McCormick argues that these cases will be occasional rather than frequent, and that the Charter "revolution" is over. Or, as he puts it in his introduction, "I will tell a story about the Charter, about the big ripples that have gradually but steadily died away such that the surface of the pond is now almost smooth." The End of the Charter Revolution explores the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, beginning with a general historical background, followed by a survey of the significant changes brought about as Charter decisions were made. The book addresses a series of specific cases made before the Dickson, Lamer, and McLachlin Courts, and then provides empirical data to support the argument that the Charter revolution has ended. The Supreme Court has without question become "a national institution of the first order," but even though the Charter is a large part of why this has happened, it is not Charter decisions that will showcase the exercise of this power in the future.

The Charter Revolution presents an updated synthesis of the argument that Ted Morton and Rainer Knopff advanced throughout the 1990s, namely that the rise of judicial power in public policymaking following the enactment of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms has put too much power in the hands of interest groups, especially those on the left, and thereby threatens the democratic fabric of Canada. These interest groups (gay and lesbian rights organizations, feminist groups, poverty activists and civil libertarians, among others) use Charter litigation to further their policy agendas, and because of this, are said to constitute the “Court Party.” This “Party,” according to Morton and Knopff, has succeeded in advancing its policy agenda, because several key actors in the judicial process sympathize with its goals and support its efforts. These actors include most notably, the law clerks of the Supreme Court of Canada, federal bureaucrats in charge of funding activist litigation, and law professors. Together, this alleged cabal has hijacked the Supreme Court and transformed it into a venue for advancing unpopular left causes to exclusion of public participation and public scrutiny. As this brief description suggests, The Charter Revolution is part partisan screed, part scholarly research and part meditation on the relationship between the political and judicial branches of government. However, the partisan screed surfaces time and time again to undermine the authors' timely and challenging account of judicial policy under the Charter. Following the organization of the book, I consider the main thrust of the authors' argument relating to the Court Party, the “jurocracy,” the state connection and the legal intelligentsia. I conclude by examining the position of this book in the literature on judicial power under the Charter in Canada.
