Display-worthy prints of the full official text of the Canadian Bill of Rights (1960) and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (1982), available in both English and French and in multiple sizes, on sturdy, high-quality paper in archival ink

———

Throughout the 20th century, Canada evolved into a world leader in the protection of human rights and civil liberties. Two documents are landmarks in this evolution:

1. The Canadian Bill of Rights (1960)
2. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (1982)

Now these two foundational rights documents are available as a set — for 15% less than buying the prints separately. The prints, like the laws they contain, complement each other. Both prints preserve the laws’ headings and major subheadings, with the text of the 1982 Charter presented in paragraphs. Anchoring the print of the Bill of Rights is the Canadian Red Ensign, Canada’s de facto national flag at the time of the Bill’s passage in 1960. In the ensign’s place on the print of the 1982 Charter is the maple leaf flag, adopted in 1965 as the National Flag of Canada. Both documents are set in readable, modern type. These and other details make these prints perfect for display in a classroom, office, or other public space or even at home.

Of the importance of civil liberties, Prime Minister John Diefenbaker stated at the passage of the Canadian Bill of Rights in 1960: “I am a Canadian, a free Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship God in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.”

In 2002, in connection with the 20th anniversary of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, Beverley McLachlin, former chief justice of the Supreme Court of Canada, remarked: “There is no doubt that the adoption of the Charter in 1982 was the landmark event for Canadian law, at least in our lifetimes. … Every nation needs a basic statement of what it stands for. For Canada, the Charter was that statement.”

The set is available in English or French and in multiple sizes. The documents are printed on sturdy, high-quality paper with archival inks.

PLEASE NOTE: Prints are delivered unframed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Custom and personalized orders

I love to receive custom orders! Additionally, each item can typically be printed at a custom size. Please contact me via the custom orders link in my shop for pricing and additional information and to get your custom order started today.

Wholesale availability

Bulk and wholesale pricing is available. Please contact me for additional information.

Terms for digital orders

For digital orders, the following terms apply. Electronic files are provided for your personal, noncommercial use only. You may print copies solely for your use in a home, classroom, or office setting. You may make and keep only the electronic copies of these files that you may need for future use or reference, and you may store them only on your own computers or in your own accounts on servers or the cloud. These files should not be modified in any way, compiled with other electronic files, or transmitted to others by any electronic or internet means.

Prints are not framed

Please note that, to keep my costs low and to pass those savings on to you, prints are not framed. All prints are shipped rolled in sturdy shipping tubes.

Please note

I strive to fulfill all orders, including custom orders, as quickly as possible—typically within one day for items I have in stock. However, please note that I am a stay-at-home dad to three small children and they come first (if they don’t, they are quick to let me know that my priorities are out of order). So if I am delayed in delivering your order, particularly a custom order, please be patient and understanding. Thank you!

Packing slip

To save weight on shipments, which saves shipping costs, as well as to reduce paper waste, I do not include a packing slip with my shipments. If you would like a packing slip included in your shipment, please message me at the time you place your order. If you need a packing slip for a past order, please message me and I will be happy to provide one for download in PDF.

Free shipping

When free shipping is offered on an item, note that it will be shipped via the lowest-cost service, even if you select a higher-cost service (such as USPS Priority Mail) at checkout.

Not all the items I ordered arrived in the package I received. Where is the rest of my order?

Please note that, because of the various production techniques I use, some orders may arrive in two or more separate packages. You will receive tracking information for each package when it ships.

I purchased the digital version of one of your prints by accident. Can I get a refund?

Yes — as long as you haven’t downloaded it yet (and yes, I can see on my end whether you’ve downloaded it or not). If you’ve purchased the digital version by accident, DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT and let me know of the error. We’ll make it right through a refund or exchange, or by figuring out another solution. But once you download the PDF, your purchase can’t be refunded, because there’s no reliable way for me to verify that you’ve deleted the downloaded file from your computer or other storage devices.
