What does not affect the rights of aboriginal peoples according to the Charter?

  1. National holidays

  2. Economic policies

  3. Treaty or other rights

  4. Parliamentary acts

The correct answer is: Treaty or other rights

The Charter of Rights and Freedoms in Canada recognizes and protects the rights of Indigenous peoples, including treaties and other rights. National holidays, economic policies, and parliamentary acts may all have an impact on these rights, either positively or negatively. However, they are not the primary factor that determines the rights of Indigenous peoples. These rights are based on historical treaties and agreements, and cannot be influenced or changed by other external factors. Therefore, the correct answer is C Treaty or other rights.
