It is anti-democratic to give power to judges when they contradict the decisions made by the elected Canadian government officials (Cameron, 2009, p. 23). Judicial activism argues to protect individuals Charter rights, but the reading in of sexual orientation directly goes against the Charter (Cameron, 2009, p. 26). Judicial activism aims to protect individual Charter rights, but can instead end up going against the



 Not Criminally Responsible on account of Mental Disorder (NCRMD) is a legal defence by excuse mostly used in countries such as Australia and Canada. It is well stipulated in criminal laws of such countries where a defendant may argue that they should not be held criminally responsible for breaking the law on the grounds that they are were mentally ill at the time when they committed the criminal offence (Penney, 2013). The issue of NCRMD may only arise on the following occasions (1) the accused committed the act or omission that formed the basis of the offence without motivation or intent and (2) at the time of the act or omission, the accused suffered from a mental disorder which made him/her incapable of fully being aware of the the nature, character and consequences of the act.

singh 1 singh 4 Saurav Singh Sherry Sharifian GOVT 2305 11th November, 2017 Civil Rights and liberties "Civil rights" 1 and "civil liberties" are terms that are frequently used in the same way but the terms are actually very distinct. Rights are fundamental regulative rules that is primary things which should be provided to every citizen of the country. In 1776 Thomas Jefferson brought the Declaration of Independence which conveyed a message of all men are created equal and everybody should be treated equally. After the Declaration of Independence the black were still treated badly and made enslaved so, they started protesting and demanding for the equal right and protection under the law. So, finally in 1968 Civil Right Act was passed that restricted all types of banned which was prevailing due to color, sex, religion and national origin.

"Laws of Ohio," a publication of the Secretary of State's office issued at the end of each General Assembly, is the only official publication of the enactments of the General Assembly. (Enactments are the bills passed by the Senate and House and sent to the Governor for his signature or veto.) This publication contains all the laws passed by the General Assembly, including the ones vetoed by the Governor, as well as the uncodified laws (those laws which are not permanent in nature and not codified in the Revised Code.) The acts filed with the Secretary of State's office are the actual statutory law of Ohio. The "Ohio Revised Code (ORC),", whether in book or on-line is only a reference and not the official

During the course of almost everyone's life, the majority of us have been locked out of something, whether it was a vehicle, a telephone, or even your house. With these situations, there can be a couple solutions, for example, if you were locked out of your car you can call a locksmith or find a metal coat hanger and wiggle it down your window sill and hope you can unlock it. If you were locked out of your telephone you could wait a certain amount to be able to re-enter your password again. Or in some instances, you can plug your phone into your computer for a chance to gain extra tries at re-entering it or reset it completely. If you were locked out of your house you could call individual you know with a key, call a locksmith, or you can execute

According to section 15. (1) of the Charter “Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability.” Considering the harm inherently associated with polygamous marriages, the limitation imposed by the state to engage in systemically harmful behaviour does not limit the equality rights of those potentially involved in polygamous marriages.

However, Canada as a nation has long since understood to place limits on rights that she feels to be causing to society and to any vulnerable populations within her citizenry. Vulnerable populations such as women and children. Section 1 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is the grounds for the Oakes Test, a provision for these limits. The Oakes Test is to see whether or not a law which infringes upon any rights that appear thereafter in the Charter can be seen as necessary according to the values of the public. According to the Supreme Court of Canada in its upholding of the polygamy laws, they view this ban as constitutional despite alleged infringements on religious freedoms. Polygamy as an institution is harmful to women and to children that are coerced into this sort of lifestyle, and also it hurts the larger society whose values and beliefs it violates (Bala,

Sentencing provisions in Canadian law are found in s.718.1 and s.718.2 of the Criminal Code, which states that, “sentences must be proportionate to the nature of the offence, reduced or increased depending on the mitigating and aggravating factors, must be similar to sentences imposed on similar offenders for similar offences in similar circumstances, and if the sentence is consecutive, it must not be unduly long or harsh.” Therefore, an offender should not be deprived of their liberty if less restrictive sanctions are available and appropriate. Keeping this is mind, all available sanctions other than imprisonment that are reasonable in the circumstances should be considered with

Despite all these efforts made by the legislative power to make laws for establishing relationships of respect and integrity towards human beings regardless of their condition, and in those days and even these days do not respect fully the laws, and that even being created, people in this country have tried not going to respect them fools procedures, eg as allow voting who do not guess the kind of riddle, as to who is to rule in writing on the line without explain rigorously, being such an ambiguous statement that simply does rule out several potential voters thus avoiding fulfill their right as a citizen, and restricting the essential part of civil right "vote".

Sharia is a broad term which encompasses both personal moral codes as well as religious law. With the basis of the American legal system being both the United States Constitution as well as individual state constitutions derived from the US constitution, it is troubling to learn that according to the booklet, Shariah in American Courts: The Expanding Incursion of Islamic Law in the US Legal System, in 146 cases in thirty-two states Shariah law influenced the resolution of matters, instead of the statutes of the state in question (Center for Security Policy). While the ACLU argues that laws which single out Sharia law violate the First Amendment by treating one belief system as suspect, the same could be said for implementing one religious law over another (ACLU). Therefore, on the basis that Sharia law would violate one of the fundamental norms of the American legal system, the fact that Sharia law is undemocratic, the fact that it is undoubtedly unconstitutional, and that Sharia law is fundamentally religious and is inapplicable to US criminal and civil law, the United States should not implement Sharia law in any way, shape, or

Human rights should be respected and upheld to ensure that equality is applied in serving all people. Democracy should be applied at all times to ensure that all people are treated the same without discrimination. All factors or practices that violate people’s

India waited another twenty-seven years to enshrine secularism as one of the objectives of the nation. On 1 September 1976, through the 42nd Amendment Act, passed during an internal emergency, the words "secular" and "socialist were formally added to the preamble of the Constitution. Then proposed constitutional changes can be considered under the following heads: (i) Amendability of the Constitution; (ii) Fundamental Rights; (iii) Directive Principles
