Document Summary
Throughout canada we can see as the decades go by we are constantly growing and prospering as a nation, but that does not mean we are persistently in accordance with one another. Conflicting opinions are found within canada regarding the canadian. Charter of rights and freedoms, predominantly regarding if it is truly democratic in nature. Within this paper i will argue that the charter is fundamentally democratic. This will be demonstrated by showing how the charter provides canadians with equality as citizens, while also providing them with power to promote their opinions. I will also acknowledge the relationship and ways liberty and democracies reinforce each other within the charter, but sometimes also create conflict. To allow for a greater understanding of the canadian charter of rights and. Freedoms an understanding of democracy and the origins of the document must be explained.
