Unfortunately the UDHR is not enforceable...

It is by way of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, among others.

That's great and all, but what can be done with this? Of course we can't just go to our landlords and be like "uh...ma freedoms!".

What do you want to do with it?

[-] ChaosSpectator@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Well....not paying stupid amounts for a roof over my head, let's start there.

So you are looking for a way to infringe on the rights of others?

I wonder if this could be used to sue organizations that block housing construction?

"I want to build a 20-storey affordable housing project"

"The local councilman and neighborhood groups want it to be a 10-storey building"

"The Charter doesn't give a shit what they want"
