Charter of Rights and Freedoms????

So I just read a news story by Lorne Gunter in the National Post. Lorne, who is fast becoming my mostest favourite journalist because he pulls no punches and calls an idiot an idiot if required. He is also about the polar opposite to all the left wing, liberal hugging, CBC dripping socialist loving pieces of shit who call themselves journalists in this country. Especially those who work for the "national broadcaster", but I digress.
Lorne did a great articel on the loss of freedoms and rights in this country that the Charter is supposed to have embedded. Seems Trudeau had a plan. Take the RESPONSIBILITY for rights away from you and give it to the government who would look after things for you.
He gives the example of Marise Myrand. Ms Myrand is 400 lbs with a bad ticker and lungs and needs many meds and an electric wheelie thing to get around.
She asked her condo commission where she lives to get her a parking spot closer to the door so she could get herself in and out with less difficulty. The condo commission , rightly I think, said that wasnt their responsibility but she could ask the lady who owned the spot if she wished to change. The lady who owned the spot, Jocelyne Nolet is also infirm, said that she needed the spot as she couldnt carry things that are too heavy. You would think that would be the end of it, Right?
Wrong. Ms. Myrand, not being happy, took the condo commission to the Quebec human rights commission and, with government funded lawyer in tow, got a decision in her favour that forced the condo commission to give Ms. Nolets parking spot to Ms. Myrand.
On top of that the Quebec Human Rights Commission also decreed that the other 35 condo owners shall pay Ms. Myrand $10,000 for being "insufficiently sensitive to her disability". So this is part of Trudeaus legacy of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. He came up with human rights commissions who have made it a policy to screw some people in favour of others.
I just have two questions to ask:
1) What about Ms. Nolets Rights? Who's looking out for her........
2) When did Personal responsibility disappear?
