This shaped Canada role in not only in the world but also in itself by protecting the citizens from hatred withing the country itself. With this charter protecting Canadians, things such as race, ethnicity, and sexuality can not be used against you and stops the injustice within the country by offering the people a guide for what rights they're entitled to as well as what can and can't be used against them. This also shaped the worlds view on Canada by showing the respects the people are entitled to and showing their acknowledgement to things people can't control (who they are), making the country respectable for their understanding for human rights.
The bill is meant to highlight the respects people of Canada have the rights to: liberty, life, personal security and enjoyment of property. It was meant to recognize the rights of Canadian citizens to ensure Canada can stay a peaceful and respectful nation.
This helped shape Canada's title to the world by ensuring peace in the country, a bill was passed to avoid injustice of the people and to keep the nation at peace. It shows the respect the country has to it's people and the responsibility it has to keep its people safe and happy. Today, the bill only applies to federal laws as ell as government actions, while being surpassed by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
With their communities being destroyed by residential schools and assimilation they had to face until the early 1990's, they were given very little back after the still very evident damage done to their community.
Reserves they have left (given in desperation to preserve what little land and culture they have left after being taken away by Canada) are in very bad condition, dirty water, bad housing and schooling, and many more problems are what they have to face on a daily basis. The terrible way of life cause depression and suicide rates among indigenous people are some of the highest in the world.
Mistreatment towards Indigenous people is something Canada is known for; the history of mistreatment is noted by many, but also forgotten by many. Canada's role of keeping peace and respect towards everyone regardless of who they are is tainted when looking at their treatment to the Indigenous people, and will take over a lifetime to fix all the issues between the country and the people. Respect towards Canada from the rest of the world is lessened when looking at the treatment they give their own people and Canada seems hypocritical when trying to make peace to other countries when their country is not at peace within itself.
Reserves are in terrible condition wit issues such as lack of unemployment, which leads to them depending on the government to assist them. But, the assistance from the government is very limited as well, housing is still in terrible shape as well as no clean water. Also, with suicide rates being at a alarmingly large rate, the government does little to help stop and solve these issues.
Canada not only participated with some of the most troops volunteered to help fight, but also stayed for peacekeeping after the combat was over and the armistice was signed.
Canada participated in heavy artillery combat in the battles of Kapyong, Hill 355 and Hill 187, with the entire Canadian Brigade arriving to fight in May 1951.
Post armistice, Canadian troops stayed to ensure security and peace in the Demilitarized Zone which separates both Korea's to this day, and left in 1997 as Korean War Veterans. Canada's big sacrifice as well as help to the UN helped shape their title of "Peacekeepers" with their efforts being greatly appreciated by South Korea as well as the rest of the world. Their sacrifices demonstrated the extent they would go to for ensured peace in the world and projected the as a country that is one for peace and safety within a country.
In April 1994, the UN had to try to face one of the most deadly mass killings in history. Anarchy spread through the country and the moderate Prime Minister being killed as well as the government ordering citizens to kill their neighbors from radios; killing was the end goal from the government.
Over 2 million people fled Rwanda to refugee camps in neighboring countries such as Zimbabwe and the killing became too much for the UN to handle with the forced they had during the mission. They could not stop the large amount of violence and stopped fighting to stop the already lost country; instead they began to help with humanitarian efforts but left the destroyed country in 1996 with almost nothing accomplished from them.
Canada gained remotely nothing from this peacekeeping effort in Rwanda, with many of their soldiers who went there getting PTSD from seeing all the violence up close as well as their “Peacekeeper” title being questioned after the horrible fate of the people they were supposed to protect and the country they could have stopped from getting out of hand when they had the chance.
Somalis began to feel threatened by Canadians after incident; very well known event in Somalia and controversial in both countries.
Changed Canada's "Peacekeeper" title; didn't keep peace but caused problems and more fighting instead.
