On what presumption is Canada's judicial system founded?

Guilty until proven innocent
Innocence until proven guilty
Permanence of evidence
Right to a fair trial

The correct answer is: Innocence until proven guilty

Canada's judicial system is founded on the presumption of innocence until proven guilty, which means that individuals are considered innocent until evidence proves them guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Option A, guilty until proven innocent, is not correct as it goes against the fundamental principle of innocent until proven guilty. Option C, permanence of evidence, is not directly related to the foundation of Canada's judicial system. Option D, right to a fair trial, is an important aspect of Canada's judicial system, but it is not the fundamental presumption that the system is founded on.
