The Advancement of Equal Rights in Canada in Relation to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms This is an 8 page paper discussing whether or not Section 15 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms has allowed for significant advancement of equality rights in Canada. In 1982, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms included within it Section 15 on "Equality Rights" which guaranteed all individuals equal protection before and under the law without any discrimination especially based on any of the nine factors of "race, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, sex, age, or mental or physical disability". The second part of the Section also guaranteed the right to affirmative action programs without discrimination. Since that time, the concepts of "equality" and human dignity have become a prominent aspect of the law and even within cases which are not based on Constitutional concerns, equality is very much a large part. Different elements of the legal system have undergone revisions in order to recognize the need for equality within all areas. Some areas such as age discrimination or interprovincial legal differences still need further development in regards to the inequality which still exists. Overall however, it has been felt that the Charter has brought about a noticeable improvement in regards to equality in the country especially concerning the rights of women and minorities and the increased awareness within the legal system that equality is considered an important element of every case.
