Answer 1

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom applies only to acts of government, such as laws and regulations, while human rights law applies to acts of private or public officials in one of the areas protected by human rights law.

Provincial/territorial human rights legislation shall be enacted by the provincial/territorial legislature and shall apply only to that province or territory. The Charter of Canada and the Right to Freedom or the Charter of the Right to Canada are part of the Canadian Constitution and valid in Canada.

Human rights law only addresses the right to freedom from oppression, while apart from the right to fair justice, the charter includes several other civil rights. The right to vote, freedom of expression and religion and the right to be innocent and innocent when participating within the criminal justice system are examples of such charter freedoms.

Finally, in most situations, to uphold your charter rights, you should file a lawsuit before the Human Rights Commission and your department in your province or territory, or with the Federal Human Rights Commission of Canada to uphold the human rights law. There should be controversy.

The original text is the Canadian Bill of Rights and Freedom (Bill). It is known as a "supreme rule" in Canada because it can be used by courts to challenge or enforce unconstitutional laws or governmental practices. The Charter guarantees equal rights and treatment on various grounds, including ethnicity, national or ethnic origin, color, faith, sex, age, or mental or physical disability.

The Charter applies only to governmental functions and behavior and does not apply to individual actions and behavior. The Ontario Human Rights Code, by contrast, extends the functions of citizens in both the private and public sectors as well as social sectors. While some of the basic concepts used to explain the Charter can also be used in interpreting the Code, it is unclear whether the Code will follow the same legal standards used for the Charter.
