Pierre Trudeau is quoted saying "the state has no business in the bedrooms of the nation." How does this quote fit Canadian law as compared to American law around sexuality?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The quote by Pierre Trudeau about the state not interfering in the bedrooms of citizens reflects the Canadian legal approach which does not regulate private, adult, consensual sexual activities. However, American law does include legal regulation of some adult consensual activities, which suggests that option D is the best fit. While there are some laws in both countries around sexual behaviour performed in public, the quote specifically refers to private activities in the bedroom. Additionally, while homosexuality is legal in Canada, it is also legal in the United States, which rules out option B. Option A is also incorrect, as there are laws in Canada around sexual behaviour, but they do not extend to private, consensual activities.
