    Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol – DUI Canada Have you ever been hit by a drunk driver? In Canada 578 drunken collisions occur every day. Not all are serious but some are.

    If your kids do this it’s a crime, even if you think it looks good, which it doesn’t. Ok, for the record some graffiti style “art” I am able to appreciate but let’s just say that 99.9% of it is vandalism. The work in the image below is actually pretty cool but I still wouldn’t…

    The photo below was posted to Reddit under the title “Well, they Do Say Art is Anything You Can Get Away With” which is an interesting idea. Now let’s continue the analysis below. In addition to the artistic merit there are two crimes going on here: Mischief and Marijuana Possession. The Mischief has to do with…

    Below is a pleasant looking holiday destination. Unfortunately you are not allowed to travel to Hawaii with a criminal record. The law prevents you from crossing the border. If you are in this situation give us a call before trying to enter the United States. You will either need a Canadian pardon or a US…

    If you’ve flown from Toronto to Montreal you may have caught this site out the right side window as the plane made a loop towards its final approach to Trudeau International. The Bordeaux Prison houses inmates sentenced to anything under 2 years. We’ve seen many clients who spent time there and went on to get…

    I have decided to make an effort to lighten this blog up a bit. It’s pretty corporate and pretty focused on fighting bad legislation, corrupt competition and the like. Sometimes it’s nice to see the lighter side. So in the name of things less serious I would like to say that I like this hat and I…

    Express Pardons – Out of Business Considering Express Pardons is out of business I found the youtube ad below very misleading. Express Pardons should honour its money back guarantee and refund all of the money that was taken from people. Unfortunately the reality is that all those people are unlikely to ever see a dime.…

    God forbid that this guy arrests me wearing that turban. If so I might have my fingerprints taken by someone wearing a kirpan (never mind the gun on his hip). Then I might have to go to court and face a judge who believes something I don’t believe, which I suppose would be the case anyway. Then…

    Il faut croire qu’il y aura une nouvelle police de la mode au Québec avec la nouvelle charte des valeurs proposée par le gouvernement québécois. On se console en se disant que les gens trouvés coupables de ne pas avoir respecté le nouveau code vestimentaire ne recevront pas de casier judiciaire et n’auront pas à …

    I’ve seen enough tv to know that we are all presumed innocent until proven otherwise. I’ve also read the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and it’s pretty clear. Here is the exact text: 11. Any person charged with an offence has the right (d) to be presumed innocent until proven guilty according to law in…
