The case of Canada v. Khadr illustrates the independence of the judiciary by demonstrating the court's commitment to uphold the rule of law and protect individual rights, even against government actions. The Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the Canadian government violated Omar Khadr's rights under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms by participating in his detention and interrogation at Guantanamo Bay. This decision underscored the judiciary's role as a check on executive power, reinforcing that legal principles must prevail over political considerations. Ultimately, it affirmed that the judiciary can challenge government actions when they infringe upon fundamental rights.
