By Deidre Olsen

Since 1982, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms has served as a beacon for other nations to emulate, with some drawing on it to create or revise their own constitutions. At present, however, there are widespread misunderstandings of how the Charter works.

In this article, we’ll take a look at the rights and freedoms of people involved in the protest; why certain groups felt their rights were being infringed upon, why others believed they had absolute freedom, and what the Charter actually guarantees.
