What does section 10 of the charter apply to?

  1. Freedom of religion

  2. The right to vote

  3. Security Guard’s authority to search a person

  4. A person’s rights on arrest or detention

The correct answer is: A person’s rights on arrest or detention

Section 10 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms specifically applies to a person’s rights on arrest or detention. It provides three main protections: the right to be informed promptly of the reasons for the arrest or detention, the right to retain and instruct counsel without delay and to be informed of that right, and the right to the habeas corpus, which enables an individual to challenge the lawfulness of their detention before a court. These specific protections are in place to ensure due process and fair treatment for individuals who are under arrest or detained by the authorities in Canada, including Ontario.
