La liberté est un principe juridique qui protège l'autonomie sur différents plans : la liberté de refuser la contrainte physique ou l'ingérence, de préserver notre intégrité corporelle et mentale, de prendre des décisions libres et éclairées. Les tribunaux canadiens ont reconnu que le droit à «la liberté et à la sécurité de sa personne» qui est garanti explicitement par la Charte englobe généralement le droit de chaque personne d'accepter ou de refuser les interventions du gouvernement en matière médicale. Il correspond au droit général au consentement ou au refus éclairé existant en droit médical. 2, record 1, French, - refus%20%C3%A9clair%C3%A9
