| Notes: | This article examines case law in Canada where 'cultural arguments' were raised in support of provocation defence cases where the provocative act was alleged to be a woman's infidelity or romantic rejection. In particular, the author considers the concerns raised by feminist and race scholars regarding the role of gender, race, patriarchy and colonialism in cases where men have killed their female partner. |
