All laws which can be violated without doing anyone any injury are laughed at. Nay, so far are they from doing anything to control the desires and passion of man that, on the contrary, they direct and incite men's thoughts toward those very objects; for we always strive toward what is forbidden and desire the things we are not allowed to have.
If you are stopped by police or are invited or brought to a police station you should be aware that the police will probably want to ask you questions. You should be very careful about answering police questions orally or in writing or on video. It is true that whatever you say may be used against you.
If you are convicted of one of these offences in British Columbia, your driver's license will be suspended for at least one year and you will frequently be prohibited, by the judge, from driving for one year. That may have a significant impact on your livelihood. A second conviction means at least 14 days in jail.
Assault in Canada encompasses any intentional application of force to another person, including a gesture. If done in self-defense the act is not an offence (as long as the degree of force used is not unreasonable). Sometimes consent is also a defence. Assault causing bodily harm and assault with a weapon are much more serious.
Sometimes persons of otherwise impeccable character steal something once during their life, especially at a time of emotional or financial stress. If you are charged with shoplifting (theft under), possession of stolen property (goods from another store), or price tag switching (fraud under), you should feel no shame in retaining the services of a lawyer to defend you.
