Wiring wall switches - Canada?

Question

Hi all.....this is a 2 - part question

1) I'm changing some recepticles, and have noticed there's a RED wire. I've seen some people mention bridging the hot terminals, how exactly is this done?

2) Is it possible to change a switched outlet to a non-switched outlet? If so, how?

Many thanks.

1)Never heard of bridging the hot terminals.2)turn off power to switch,remove wires from switch,twist bare  part of those 2 wires together & put on a wire connector[marrett],fold wires back into box,install a blank cover,re establish power
