Canada criminal law questions? Ask a legal Expert without an appointment
In Canada, crime is defined at the federal level, and remains the same from province to province. Under Canada criminal code, criminal code offenses are divided into summary and non-summary offenses, with the latter resulting in indictment and higher penalties and fines. Ignorance isn’t considered a valid legal defense, so it’s important to have a working knowledge of Canada criminal law.
If you find yourself in a dispute involving Canada criminal law, you'll probably encounter some confusion. When you turn to the legal Experts on JustAnswer, though, they can help you figure out your legal standing and help you to figure out your best course of action. You’ll only approve payment once you’re fully satisfied.
