Which of the following is NOT a fundamental freedom as stated Under Section 2 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms?

  1. Freedom of conscience and religion

  2. Freedom of thought

  3. Freedom of association

  4. Freedom to travel

The correct answer is: Freedom to travel

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, under section 2, does not list "freedom to travel" as a fundamental freedom. The Charter recognizes the basic rights and freedoms to which all individuals are entitled in a democratic society. Specifically, section 2, which focuses on fundamental freedoms, includes freedom of conscience and religion, freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication, freedom of peaceful assembly, and freedom of association. Thus, it is important to note that "freedom to travel" is not recognized as a fundamental freedom under this section of the Charter. This doesn't mean that freedom to travel is not a right in Canada, but rather it falls under other sections such as mobility rights, outlined in Section 6 of the Charter rather than under fundamental freedoms.
