Title

Civil Liberties Advocacy Organizations in Canada: A Survey and Critique

Abstract

Civil Liberties Advocacy Organizations in Canada: A Survey and Critique.” This article explores the structure and activities of modern civil liberties groups in Canada through a comparative look with the ACLU in the United States. The thesis of the article is that the Canadian model of having fragmented and isolated groups in some provinces is not as effective as the American model of having a single, national organization with affiliates in each state.
