CITY OF TORONTO VS ATTORNEY GENERAL OF ONTARIO Negative and positive claim of right--- Distinction--- Many constitutional rights had both positive and negative dimensions---Distinction between those positive and negative dimensions remained important when considering the nature of the obligation that the claim sought to impose upon the state: a right's positive dimensions required government to act in certain ways, whereas its negative dimensions required government to refrain from acting in other ways.
