About Us

Seven/Fifty is managed by the Centre for Constitutional Studies, which is housed in the University of Alberta's Faculty of Law and funded by the Alberta Law Foundation.​

 

The Centre's main roles are to connect leading Canadian and international scholars, to contribute to constitutional debate, and to create resources that educate the public about the Constitution of Canada and constitutionalism generally. The Centre publishes a peer-reviewed journal, the Review of Constitutional Studies, and an online journal, Constitutional Forum, which promotes constitutional dialogue and debate. In addition to hosting national conferences and symposia to connect scholars and practicing lawyers, the Centre also reaches out to the public through public lectures, webinars, and podcasts. 

 

Seven/Fifty is intended to bridge the divide between our research and public education work by inviting and providing accessible, short-form scholarship and commentary on constitutional issues.
