Every Canadian citizen as the right to vote for any party or member of parliament of their choosing. And no government office can stay in power for more than 5 years. We wouldn’t be able to vote for the government, therefore, the same government in power, or we wouldn’t have a government. We would have a government that only cares about themself.

Question 10

Mobility rights states

Answer 10

The mobility rights states that every Canadian citizen has the right to go and leave Canada. And all citizens can live, leave, work, or have a business anywhere in Canada. But people still need to reach provincial requirements for the job they’re working on/in. And some provinces require you to follow the residence rules. We would be trapped in our own province and people couldn’t leave Canada or enter.

Question 13

Language rights states

Answer 13

People have the right to speak french and English. Anyone in government would have to know both English and french. And people can choose what language they want to speak. Everyone would have to be forced to learn/speak either French or English.

Question 14

Minority language education rights states

Answer 14

Citizens can be educated in both French and English. In Quebec, there are more french speaking Canadians than English, but they can still be educated in English. In every other province or territory, a child can learn in french if their parent’s first language is french, the parents learned in french school, or if the parents already had a child that learned in french. Every child would have to learn in one language. It wouldn’t be fair.
