Ok im studying Canadas constitutional approach to protecting rights. What exactly do I need to know? There are a lot of express rights listed, am I supposed to know all of them?? And is the cjarter of rights and freedoms their bill of rights? In the justice and outcomes textbook theres so much detail on things like pre-legislative scrutiny, overriding provision, advisory opinions,etc. Do we need to know this all in detail??
Information overload.. I'm confused :/
I didn't do Canada but as a guide you need to know
- how rights are protected, do they have a bill of rights, is it in constitution or legislation
- what kind of rights are protected eg democratic, social rights
- how are te rights enforced, can judges declare legislation invalid if they contradict rights
- how can rights be changed eg referendum
Yeah need to know quite a bit of info on this because if a question is asked it is generally a comparison between your country and Australia
Hopefully someone can answer your questions specifically on Canada
