  1. Chapter Two Part Two

    What are our democractic rights? In Canada we choose people who form the government and they make decisions for us. This is called represented democracy.
  2. Magna Carta This means that everyone, no matter how important she or he is has to obey the law. The Magna Carta was really the first charter of rights
