Whether you are new to the Charter or even if you've been working with it for years, the federal government's 'Charterpedia' is - IMHO - the best summarizing resource available online. Readers involves in Charter law would do themselves a service by reviewing it all on a regular basis.
My legal career has roughly spanned the life of the Charter, and I have been involved with several Charter cases, two of them successful - one to the Supreme Court of Canada [Ramsden v. Peterborough (City) (SCC, 1993)]. Canada is blessed with an 'active' constitution, primarily in the form of the Charter but also in it's Constitution (non-Charter) form (typically in the 'division of powers' doctrine).
