Between the Canadian Bill of Rights (1960) and the Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms, which is better able to protect the rights and freedoms of Canadian citizens and why?

The answer is the Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms but I`m not sure why.

This is what I`ve thought of so far:

- the Charter is more open ended so it's made to fit any case

Could you tell me if my reason is correct and tell me a few more reasons why? Thanks :)
