THE LIMITS AND APPLICATION OF THE CANADIAN CHARTER OF RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS “The potential for a collision of rights does not necessarily imply unconstitutionality. The collision between rights must be approached on the contextual facts of actual conflicts . The first question is whether the rights alleged to conflict can be reconciled… Where the rights cannot be reconciled, a true conflict of rights is made out . In such cases, the Court will find a limit on religious freedom and go on to balance the interests at stake under s. 1 of the Charter In both steps, the Court must proceed on the basis that the Charter does not create a hierarchy of rights and that the right to religious freedom enshrined in s. 2(a) of the Charter is expansive.” ( Reference Re: Same-Sex Marriage, para 50) “Conflicts of rights do not imply conflict with the Charter ; rather the resolution of such conflicts generally occurs within the ambit of the Charter itself by way of internal balancing and delineation.” ( Reference Re: Same-Sex Marriage, para 52)
THE LIMITS AND APPLICATION OF THE CANADIAN CHARTER OF RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS “The mere recognition of the equality rights of one group cannot, in itself, constitute a violation of the rights of another . The promotion of Charter rights and values enriches our society as a whole and the furtherance of those rights cannot undermine the very principles the Charter was meant to foster.” ( Reference Re: Same- Sex Marriage, para 46)
