PETITION TO THE HOUSE OF COMMONS OF CANADA
IN PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLED

WE, THE UNDERSIGNED CITIZENS OF CANADA, draw the attention of the House
to the following:

THAT there is currently no provision in the Charter of Rights and
Freedoms that prevents the government from taking anything owned by any
person, or restricts the government in any way from passing laws which
prohibit the ownership, use and enjoyment of, or reduces the value of
anything owned by any person;

THAT there is currently no provision in the Charter of Rights and
Freedoms that requires the government to provide fair and timely
compensation for taking, restricting the use and enjoyment of, or
reducing the value of a person's property;

THAT there is currently no provision in the Charter of Rights and
Freedoms that gives anyone the right to appeal to the courts if the
government arbitrarily takes their property, or passes laws which
interfere with their ability to use, enjoy and sell their property, or
fails to compensate them in a fair and timely manner;

THAT every person's fundamental human right to own, use, and enjoy
property was intentionally left out of the Charter of Rights and
Freedoms by the federal and provincial governments;

THEREFORE, your petitioners request Parliament support Private Members
Bill (C-304) introduced by the Member of Parliament for
Yorkton-Melville which would strengthen the protection of property
rights in the Canadian Bill of Rights and specifically guarantee that
every person has (1) the right to enjoyment of their property, (2) the
right not to be deprived of their property unless they are given a fair
hearing, paid fair, timely and impartially-fixed compensation, and (3)
the right to appeal to the courts if their property rights have been
infringed upon.
