Why did canadians push for the charter to be entrenched into the constition?

Good question! Former Canadian Prime Minister, John Diefenbaker, oversaw the
draughting of the Canadian Bill of Rights in the early 1960's. It was a document
that gave clarity to the fundamental rights to be enjoyed by all Canadian citizens.
Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, desiring to leave his own legacy on rights, replaced the Bill of Rights with the Canadian
Charter of Rights in 1982. This new bill has proved to be a thorn in the side of Parliament -- for it grants previously unknown power to the courts because some sections are vague and subject to interpretation that only the courts can settle.
The Bill of Rights functioned better than the Charter of Rights does today because it was less vague and less detailed. Canada would probably be better off today by reverting to the Bill of Rights.

Do you think that Canadians today are as racist as they were in the past?
Answer: Like every other country on this earth, canadians have a certain percent of people who are racist, it is unfortunate that these racists are so ignorant of other cultures that they have absolutely no concept of how other peoples live, thank goodness this is only a very small percentage. Most Canadians are the most tolerant people onearth.Answer: If those racists from the past are still alive then yes, I believe those Canadians are still just as racist as they were in the past. If any of the younger generation took cues from them then they are probably just as racist if not more racist because of how it is looked down upon nowadays, so in defiance, they push their racism.
