SENATE DEBATES — March 19, 1981

[Page 2110]

THE CONSTITUTION

EFFECT OF PROPOSED CANADIAN CHARTER OF RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS ON LAW ENFORCEMENT

Hon. Raymond J. Perrault (Leader of the Government): Honourable senators, I have a delayed answer to a question asked by Senator Bosa on March 12, concerning the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the article in the Globe and Mail on March 11 by one Roderick McLeod. Since this is a rather extensive reply and is of some importance, I would ask that it be incorporated in today’s record of proceedings.

The Hon. the Speaker: Is it agreed, honourable senators?

Hon. Senators: Agreed.
