Respect for others forms the foundation of Canadian law.

Rules of morality and custom tell us what we should and should not do, but rules made by government are called "laws."

These laws are meant to control or change behaviour and, unlike rules of morality, they
are enforced by the courts. If by way of admissible evidence you are found to have broke a law - whether you like that law or not - you will pay a fine or you will pay for the damage done.

If two people claim the same piece of property, rather than fight, they turn to the law and the courts, to decide who is the real owner and how the real owner's rights are to be protected.

Laws are also aimed at ensuring fairness. By recognizing and protecting basic individual rights and freedoms, such as liberty and equality, our laws ensure that stronger groups and individuals do not use their powerful positions to take unfair
advantage of weaker groups or people.

Our legal system, based on a tradition of law and justice, gives Canadian society a valuable framework. The rule of law, freedom under the law, democratic principles, and respect for others form the foundation of this important heritage.
