Chruch and State in Canada

We've been looking and found a REALLY old book (1887) that was very difficult to understand. Anyone know how the seperation of church and state works here? We don't tend to have endorsements by anyone during campaigns so possibly it's more the tradition that any law. Any ideas?

Here's what www.religioustolerance.org says:

"Separation of church and state is mandated by the 1st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. A similar principle has evolved largely through popular custom in Canada."

Interesting. Perhaps we should be looking more at the seperation of church and state in England.
