The Canadian Bill of Rights was proclaimed in 1960 and prohibited discrimination by the federal government on the basis of race, color, gender, or ethnic origin. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms was not enacted until 1982. Canada's Multicultural Policy and the Canadian Multiculturalism Act both promote and celebrate the diversity of Canada but do not specifically address discrimination.
