What is the official name by which this Part may be cited, as stated in the material?

• A. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms
• B. The Constitution Act
• C. The Bill of Rights
• D. The Charter

Answer: (A)

The official name used for this Part is The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. This formal title appears in the Constitution Act, 1982 to designate the rights protections it contains. While many people call it “the Charter” in everyday discussion, the precise legal citation is the full long form. The Constitution Act refers to the broader statute, and the Bill of Rights is a different, earlier instrument, so they aren’t the official name for this Part.
