This book examines the founding non-sectarianapproach to Canadian statecraft that accommodated religious and culturaldiversity. The 1960s promise of political liberalism embraced in Canada was toprovide a philosophy of government that facilitates the individual's vision andpursuit of the good life. Decades later, the promotion of individual autonomyand fraternity by governments and the courts threatens to undermine the veryfreedom governments claim to promote and protect. Bruce J. Clemenger presents abiblically-based model of public and political engagement and a defense ofreligious freedom,especiallythe freedom to disagree, in an increasinglyseculariststate. A timely work.
