Abstract
Canada's adoption of a constitutional Charter of Rights and Freedoms has led to a limited judicialization of politics which has been felt mostly in the field of criminal justice. But judicialization in major fields of social and economic policy has been limited by the Charter's terms and by judicial self-restraint. The Charter's principal impact on the country's political life is not a transfer of power to the judiciary but a juridicalization of political discourse. Divisive moral and constitutional issues have been permeated with "rights talk." This makes consensual resolution of these issues more difficult.
