What are the Charter values allegedly infringed by the Minister of Employment and Immigration?

The plaintiff argues that the Charter values allegedly infringed are equality rights under s. 15(1) (on the ground of disability) and “security of the person”, on the ground that state action with the likely effect of impairing the plaintiff’s health engages s. 7. On the s. 7 point, the plaintiff cites Singh v. Canada (Minister of Employment and Immigration), 1985 CanLII 65 (SCC), [1985] 1 S.C.R. 177, [1985] S.C.J. No. 11, where Wilson J. (speaking for half the panel) cited, with apparent approval, a passage from Collin v. Lussier, [1983] 1 F.C. 218, where the court said of an inmate challenging a transfer from a medium security to a maximum security prison, “such detention, by increasing applicant's anxiety as to his state of health, is likely to make his illness worse and, by depriving him of access to adequate medical care, it is in fact an impairment of the security of his person” (cited in Singh at para. 48).
