A comparison of US Bill of Rights and The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms

Former United States Attorney General Ramsey Clark wrote in the New York Times, "A right is not what someone gives you; but what no one can take away." It is in this vein that a country drafts legislation to protect the rights of their inhabitants. In the United States there is the Bill of Rights, which consists of a preamble and the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution, 1787 . The Charter of Rights and Freedoms is the first part of the Canadian Constitution Act, 1982 . Both of these documents provide for the rights and freedoms that both countries see as inalienable to their respective populations.

Ontario planning to lift more COVID-19 restrictions next week: reports

The Ford government is reportedly planning to loosen more COVID-19 restrictions as COVID-19 cases continue to trend down, according to multiple reports.

It comes nearly a week after Ontario lifted capacity limits in sports venues, concerts halls and movie theatres.

The province had planned to eventually exit the Step 3 phase of their reopening plan, but increasing case numbers and the delta variant forced them to pause.

Reports say the announcement is expected to come next week and will end the capacity limits in most public places including restaurants, bars and gyms.

Masking indoors and other public health restrictions are expected to remain in effect.
