Abstract Since the Charter of Rights was added to Canada's constitutional law in 1982, Canada's courts have gaineci influence as political institutions. Cartndian poIitical sàentists have started to study the courts wah the varbus tools of social science aiid while this first generation research bas noted that interest groups are paying new attention to the courts, most of it bas been sporadicYunsystdc and anecdotal. This dissertation investigates two principai research questions. First, to what extent have interest groups taken advantage ofthe shiA of politicai duence towards the judiciaqt? Secondly, to what extent am the groups that have taken advmtage of the judiciary's new influence be considered "poiiticaliy disadvantaged"? The first chapter reviews how the "political disadvantage theory" of interest group litigation emerged in the US aad Canada. Since 1980, American scholars have concluded the theory is too aaorow, and 1demonstrate that it never did descri'be the Canadian expenence. Interest groups litigate to take advantage of the institutioaal structure of the courts. The second chapter traces the history of interest group intervention in the Canadian Supreme Court. During the 1980s, interest groups and legal commentators urged the Court to hear from more interest group intemeners. The Court responded by openiag its door to an unprecedented nwber of groups. Chapter three shows how the federal goverament used the Court Challenges Program to encourage interest group litigation. The fourth chapter argues that interest group litigation under the Charter's equaiity rigbts section creates a politics of status-seeking, and elaborates a mode1 to explain equality rigbts litigatïon. Chapter five proposes a theory of the Charter's impact on the institutional hmework of poiicy-makmg in Canada. It suggests how judicial review altas the influence of interest groups in poiicy- making. Finallyychapter six considers the Supreme Court's justifications for hearhg iii interest groups in the light of modem coILStitllfionalismls conani for checks and balances. Although the politicai didvantage theory bas been used to legitimate the Court's actMsm under the Charter ofRights, the disertation concludes that it is a poor empirical explanation of the reality of hterest group Litigation. Aclmowledgements Fifst, 1thank the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Councii of Canada (Doctoral Feiiowship 752-94-1495), the Alberta Heritage Scholarshïp Fund, the Külam Trust and the Department of Politid Science for th& generous support ovathe past four years.

    Notes Chapter 1 1. There are, of course, many “Americas.” Here, I use the word “America” interchangeably with the “United States.” I also use the words “work” and “labor” interchangeably throughout this book. This is a self-conscious decision in spite of the distinction Hannah Arendt draws between work and labor. See Hannah Arendt, The Human Condition (Chicago: Univer- sity of Chicago Press, 1998). 2. To be sure, the occurrence of the word “dream” in these speeches may or may not refer to the American Dream as such. Yet, a close reading of the texts yields the conclusion that it most often does. These speeches are available at the University of California, Santa Barbara’s “American Presidency Project” website. Available at http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/; last accessed August 5, 2012. The numbers cited here reflect the follow- ing methodological considerations: (a) I have only taken into account the first of a series of six State of the Union addresses by Richard Nixon (1973); (b) I have excluded Reagan’s (1981), Bush’s (1989), Clinton’s (1993), Bush’s (2001), and Obama’s (2009) addresses before joint sessions of Congress because these were not technically State of the Union mes- sages; and (c) the word “undreamed” has been counted as an occurrence of the word “dream.” 3. See, especially, figure 2.1. More generally, see chapters 3 and 6. 4. Jennifer L. Hochschild, Facing Up to the American Dream: Race, Class, and the Soul of the Nation (Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1995), xvii. 5.
