And above all, what new things will he learn about his mysterious in-laws and their friends? Publication date: September 1, 2021. Order now
In Canada, the Charter of Rights and Freedoms has just been amended to reverse the presumption of innocence in sexual assault cases, and women control the judicial system at all levels. It is in this context that a prominent businessman is accused, then fiercely defended by a lawyer perceived as a traitor by pressure groups associated with the MeToo movement. Eve Williams, a young and courageous freelance journalist, wants to get to the bottom of this. Her investigation will take her to Canada's Far North, to the Cree, the proud Indigenous people who have gained control of the James Bay territory and who stubbornly refuse to adhere to the Charter.
