The basic role of Courts in Canada is to

  1. Help people resolve disputes unfairly and with justice, whether the matter is between the individuals or between individuals and the state

  2. Help people resolve their issues so they can continue to contribute taxes to Canada

  3. Help people resolve disputes fairly and with justice, whether the matter is between the individuals or between individuals and the state

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: Help people resolve disputes fairly and with justice, whether the matter is between the individuals or between individuals and the state

The basic role of Courts in Canada, as it is in any democratic, rule of law-based society, is indeed to assist individuals in the resolution of their disputes fairly and justly. In essence, the courts are expected to act as arbiters of justice, making decisions based on the law, evidence, and facts presented to them, rather than on individual biases or personal beliefs. Therefore, choice C rightly states that the role of the courts is to enable a fair and just resolution of disputes. This role applies regardless of whether the conflict is between private individuals or between individuals and the state, ensuring equity under the law for all parties involved.
