Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms"Within the contours of the three rights that it protects, Section 7 (of the
Charter of Rights and Freedoms) has potential for advancing social justice. By this I mean, s. 7 has potential for providing an appropriate amount of protection to individuals from injurious state action, corresponding to their reality within a state - controlled regime or system." ~
James HendrySection Seven of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is a constitutional provision that protects an individual's autonomy and personal legal rights from actions of the government in
Canada. There are three types of protection within the section, namely the
right to life,
liberty, and
security of the person.
Denials of these rights are constitutional only if the denials do not breach what is referred to as
fundamental justice.
