Question
please let me know (or provide me with a site) that lets me know the similarities and differences between the English Bill Of Rights (1689) and the Canadian Bill Of rights (1960)  

Answer
Hello Jono,

This is the type of question that Wikipedia (a site you should be careful of) does best.  Therefore, for the Canadian BofR's:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_bill_of_rights

For the English:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_bill_of_rights

It will take some reading and maybe even visiting referred-to sites, but I think you'll find your answer fairly quickly.  Good luck, and thanks for visiting AllExperts.

Sincerely,

Joseph Logue

Expertise

I am knowledgeable about English history from about 1400 to 1688, and then from the reign of Victoria (after 1837). I have a particular interest in the monarchy and dynastic relations of Europe from 1800 onwards. I cannot answer questions regarding the latter Stuarts, the early Hanovers, and the politics of the 18th century.
