The [Canadian] Charter [of Rights and Freedoms] distinguishes between two separate issues: whether a right has been infringed, and whether the limitation is justified. The complainant bears the burden of showing the infringement of a right (the first step), at which point the burden shifts to the government to justify the limit as a reasonable limit under section 1 (the second step). 2, record 1, English, - infringement%20of%20a%20right

La Charte [canadienne des droits et libertés] établit une distinction entre deux questions distinctes : celle de savoir s'il y a eu atteinte à un droit et celle de savoir si la restriction est justifiée. Le plaignant a le fardeau de prouver qu'une atteinte a été portée à un droit (première étape), après quoi il incombe au gouvernement de prouver que la restriction constitue une limite raisonnable au sens de l'article [1] (deuxième étape). 3, record 1, French, - atteinte%20%C3%A0%20un%20droit
