There have been several important court decisions on the applications of these

chapters. In particular, s.8, s.9, and s.10 and parts of s.11 will be outlined
in Chapter Five which discusses pre-trial procedure. Cases concerning the
rights of the accused at trial will be illustrated in Chapter Two. This Article
released under United Nations Convention Act. citizens right to know. A peace
of Legal Advise to our Community. this just a little learning without going
into the Details. Bravo.
EXAMPLES OF RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS IN THE CHARTER
Fundamental freedoms: Freedom of conscience religion thought belief opinion and
expression freedom of peaceful assembly and association
Democratic right: The right of Canadian citizens to vote or to run for office.
Mobility rights: The right of Canadian citizens to enter remain in and leave
Canada and the right of Canadian citizens and permanent residents to live and
work in any province of Canada.
Equally rights: The right to be treated equally before and under the law the
right to the equal protection of the law and benefit of the law without
discrimination based on race national or ethnic origin colour religion age or
mental or physical disability.
The Charter also protects the two official languages of Canada French and
English. The charter has special importance to criminal law. To enforce the law
protect the public and prosecute offenders police and others in the criminal
justice system are given certain powers and authority to interfere with
individual liberty. For example the power to search and to make arrests are
significant infringements of personal freedom. The charter serves an important
function of setting out rules of procedure for exercising these powers and
limitations on the authority allowed to law enforcement personnel. The most
important rights for criminal law are the legal rights set out in s.7-s. 14.
Section 7 states:
7. Everyone has the right to life liberty and security of the person and the
right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of
fundamental justice.
This general statement says that a person cannot be denied life liberty or
security of the person without the principles of fundamental justice being
followed. The supreme Court of Canada has said that the principles of
fundamental justice are to be found in the basic tenets of our legal system and
that it is up to the courts to develop the limits of these tenets. In other
words the courts will decide on a case-by-case basis whether a tenet of
fundamental justice has been violated. For example the ontario court of appeal
has held that the right to remain silent when an offence is being investigated
is and always has been a principle of fundamental justice. Therefore the police
violated this right when an accused was told that he would be held until the
keys to the car that the police believed he had stolen could be found. In other
words he would be held until he gave the police the keys or told the police
where the keys could be found. The supreme court
of Canada held recently that a provincial law which imposed a minimum
seven-day sentence on a person who was driving with a suspended licence even
though he was unaware that his licence had been suspended violated a principle
of fundamental justice. The Court also said that s.8-s.14 are specific
situations involving the deprivation of life liberty or security of the person
sections 8, 9 and 10 concern pre-trial procedure 8.Everyone has the right to be
secure against unreasonable search or seizer. 9. Everyone has the right not to
be arbitrarily detained or imprisonment. 10.Everyone has the right on arrest or
detention {a}to be informed promptly of the reasons therefore, {b}to retain and
instruct counsel without delay and to be informed of the right, and {c}to have
the validity of the detention determined by way of habeus corpus and to be
released if the detention is not lawful. Sections 11, 12, 13, and 14, relate to
trail procedure. For your Info all the
Sections In this Artical is repetriated from United Nations Charter, U.N. call
it Article 1 to Article 14. Here in Canada is Called Sections in the supreme
Law of Canada The Constitution therefore this Articles applies into both
National as well International Law. Bravo.
