re: #591 Sharmuta

The right to peaceable assembly is not a group right. Group rights refer to rights which are conferred upon a person by virtue of him or her being a member of a particular group. In the example of Canada, the Meech Lake Accord sought to introduce special rights for Quebec on the basis that the French constituted a “unique society”. That was the considered the price for getting Quebec to agree to the Constitution. The Accord died and was never adopted. All Canadian individuals have the same rights.
