Who settles disputes in Canada?

  1. Politicians

  2. Courts

  3. Police

  4. Community leaders

The correct answer is: Courts

In Canada, the role of settling disputes falls under the jurisdiction of the courts. This is because the courts are responsible for interpreting and enforcing laws, and have the authority to make final decisions in legal matters. While politicians may play a role in creating laws, they are not responsible for settling disputes. Similarly, while police may be involved in some disputes, their primary responsibility is to enforce the law and maintain public safety. Community leaders do not have the legal authority to settle disputes; they may provide guidance and mediation, but ultimately it is up to the courts to make a decision. Therefore, the correct answer is B Courts.
