Instructions
The Charter of Rights and Freedoms is a fundamental part of the Canadian Constitution. There are many different views on the importance and effectiveness of the Charter. Some would argue that it is a weapon that allows criminals to shield themselves from consequence while others believe that the Charter is the most enviable part of Canadian law.
I would like to hear your comments on the issue. What strikes you most about the Charter? What sections do you find most interesting or most appalling? In particular, what do you think about the parts that give us rights before the courts, rights upon arrest and rights against search and seizure? What kind of effect to you think this has on prosecuting criminals (like fraudsters)?
