The Miranda case held that you have to be read your rights when being arrested. "You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have a right to an attorney, if you cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed for you. Do you understand those rights as I have read them to you?" This is a reading of what is now referred to as your "Miranda Rights". The names comes from the Miranda case.
The Fourteenth Amendment Due Process Clause incorporates the Fifth Amendment to the states. Both Amendments mention Due Process, but the Fifth Amendment is the one referred to in criminal cases.

∙ 13y agoIn the case of Miranda v. Arizona, Ernesto Miranda was protesting the fact that he was not aware that he had rights when he was questioned in a state level criminal investigation. The supreme court ruled that suspects had to be informed that they have the right to remain silent, the right to an attorney, and the right to a court appointed attorney if they cannot afford one. These rights are now called the Miranda rights.

Miranda rights in Canada?
No there are no Miranda rights in Canada. There actually is no such thing as "Miranda Rights". Miranda Rights name comes from the court decision involving Miranda v. Arizona when a defendant didn't know his legal rights, most notably the 5th Amendment in the "Bill of Rights" in the US Constitution. Which is protection from self incrimination, hence, "You have the right to remain silent" and the 6th Amendment which guarantees legal consul, "You have the right to consult with a lawyer" All of these "rights" are guaranteed to Americans and their visitors to the US (both legal and illegal) by the US Constitution. Hence Canada is not a part of the United States and there for, Canadians do not have these exclusive rights as guaranteed by the Constitution and further established by the Miranda v. Arizona court case.Now the Canadian Citizens do have something similar to this however it is called "Charter of Rights and Freedoms". It is not the same as the Miranda Warning, Miranda Rights, or the Rights granted under the US Constitution.In three related decisions, a sharply divided (Supreme) court (of Canada) fine-tuned the rules on suspects' right to counsel.In the main case, the justices ruled 5-4 that the Charter of Rights does not confer a right to have a lawyer present during interrogation.

What is the Miranda rights?
The Miranda rights are guaranteed by the 5th and 6th amendments to protect people accused of crimes. They give anybody in police custody the right to remain silent, to an attorney, and to have a court appointed attorney if they don't have one. These rights must be made clear to people who are accused.The name comes from a particular court case involving a defendant whose last name was Miranda. The US Supreme Court found that he was not properly informed of the rights listed above prior to questioning (he had them, because they're guaranteed in the US Constitution, but he didn't know he had them). The Court found the police had, basically, tricked him into unknowingly giving up those rights.Police departments today read suspects a "Miranda warning" routinely just to be sure, even though it's common enough on TV and in movies that there's a reasonable expectation that most people already know them.
