Title

Noble v. Alley Court Documents

Description

This 1951 Supreme Court case struck down a racist real estate covenant that banned the sale of land to anyone who was "Jewish", "Semitic", "Negro", or "coloured." This ruling was important because it effectively ended the use of racist housing covenants in Canada and furthered the human rights movement in Canada.
