Outrage: Canada's Justice System on Trial

Vancouver: Raincoast, 1999. 1st Edition. Hardcover. 8vo. Fine / Fine. Item #008379

Full black paper boards. x, 182 pp. Fine. This thought-provoking book by a former B.C. attorney general asks the contentious question, "is Justice being served by Canada's current criminal justice system?" For the most part, Macdonald's answer is "No!" In this hard-hitting, outspoken critique of Canada's foundering criminal justice system - a system which defense lawyers and even some of Canada's senior judges focus on legalistic nitpicking at the expense of natural justice and the common good - Macdonald makes a passionate plea that Canada's Charter be applied for the benefit of victims and of Canadian society, not just the benefit of the accused.
