Things aren’t going well for 15-year-old Dylan Maples. He’s sick of his own reflection, his parental units are driving him nuts and he’s trying to come to terms with the unexpected death of one of his best friends. Now, he’s been roped into a family trip to New Brunswick. After just a few hours in Bathurst, Dylan worries this will turn out to be the most boring vacation ever, but when he meets a local girl, Antonine, and the two of them witness what looks like a burning ship way out on the water, he begins to think that New Brunswick might be more interesting than he thought.

This book shows how human rights became the primary language for social change in Canada and how a single decade became the locus for that emergence. The author argues that the 1970s was a critical moment in human rights history—one that transformed political culture, social movements, law, and foreign policy. Human Rights in Canada is one of the first sociological studies of human rights in Canada. It explains that human rights are a distinct social practice, and it documents those social conditions that made human rights significant at a particular historical moment.
