ECOSOC Resolution 2007/25: Support to Non-Self-Governing Territories by the specialized agencies and international institutions associated with the United Nations (26 July 2007) The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) is a multilateral treaty adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 16 December 1966, and in force from 3 January 1976.
It commits its parties to work toward the granting of economic, social, and cultural rights (ESCR) to the Non-Self-Governing and Trust Territories and individuals, including labour rights and the right to health, the right to education, and the right to an adequate standard of living. As of 2014, the Covenant had 162 parties.[1] A further seven countries, including the United States of America, had signed but not yet ratified the Covenant.

At the conclusion of the book of Ecclesiastes, the reader, having been exposed to the vanity of men's philosophies of life, is given one simple message: "Fear God, and keep His commandments: For this is the whole duty of man.
"1 Beginning with the latter part of the nineteenth century and continuing at a faster pace in the 1980's, a steady parade of legal scholars, judges, lawyers, and an ever-increasing vanguard of their fellow citizens in the Christian West, have ignored this wise biblical counsel. "Professing themselves to be wise," they have "become fools" by exchanging a heritage of a revealed law-order created by God, and accepted by their Christian forefathers, for an imaginary political power game invented by man.
This deal - a trade of law for politics - has brought the once-Christian West to the brink of destruction. Instead of prosperity and freedom, security and liberty, nation after nation in Europe and in the Americas teeters between totalitarian rule and anarchical chaos. The Greatest Thomas Jefferson quotes. Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.
Was the government to prescribe to us our medicine and diet, our bodies would be in such keeping as our souls are now. I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it. “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” Canadian Bill of Rights. Background[edit] Saskatchewan's Bill of Rights[edit] In 1947, Saskatchewan passed into law a bill of rights which was (and remains) unique.
The Saskatchewan Bill of Rights covered both fundamental freedoms and equality rights. Saskatchewan's Bill of Rights is considered to have had formative influence on John Diefenbaker, who was from Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. Bill of rights. Bills of rights may be entrenched or unentrenched.
An entrenched bill of rights cannot be modified or repealed by a country's legislature through normal procedure, instead requiring a supermajority or referendum; often it is part of a country's constitution and therefore subject to special procedures applicable to constitutional amendments.
