Canada Act

The Canada Act, also known as the Constitution Act of 1982, is a key piece of legislation that patriated Canada’s Constitution from the UK, meaning that Canada gained full control over its own laws. It includes important provisions, such as the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which guarantees fundamental rights and freedoms for Canadians. The Act also established procedures for constitutional amendments, making it easier for Canada to change its Constitution without needing approval from Britain. Overall, the Canada Act marked a significant step in Canada's evolution as an independent nation.
