Janet Hiebert joined the Department of Political Studies in 1991 and retired in 2022. Her recent research project examined how devolution agreements for Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland influence legislative decision-making; more specifically,  how the processes and institutional dynamics for evaluating whether legislation complies with these devolution agreements constrain and influence government bills and parliamentary review.

Her most recent book, with Anna Drake and Emmett Macfarlane, is (카지노게임사이트 of Toronto Press, 2023). She is the author of several books about the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, along with numerous papers and chapters on the politics of rights and on campaign finance laws in Canada.
