Individual privacy is safeguarded under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Charter states that everyone has the right to be protected from unreasonable search or seizure, as it would infringe on their expectation of privacy. This is especially relevant in cases involving surveillance or collection of personal information.
For instance, an individual’s privacy would typically be considered protected while they are inside their home, but not in a public place. Also, documents or materials placed out for disposal, such as garbage at the curb, are considered abandoned and not subject to privacy protection.
The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms protects people’s privacy. This means that no one can search or take someone’s things without a good reason. This is very important when collecting personal information or conducting surveillance on someone. People are usually safe from being spied on when they are in their homes, but not in public places. For example, if someone throws away their documents or materials to garbage, it’s not private anymore.
Should an investigation result in a court case, the investigator should be familiar with the Ontario Evidence Act and the federal Canada Evidence Act. These laws regulate the collection and use of evidence in a court of law.
