The Role of Government

The Role of Government

Hi Carmen, I see you have already covered a broad range of ideas in your wiki but I thought I would give you one more. Have you considered adding additional information on the role the government and particularly the judiciary plays in this debate in Canada. The Constitution Act, 1982, brought with it The Charter of Rights and Freedoms which changed the game for personal rights in Canada.

Additionally, there is a very famous series of Canadian cases you might wish to draw on. These are the cases of R. v. Morgentaler. In these cases, the Supreme Court found that the abortion provision was unconstitutional as it violated women's rights (the rights in the charter).
