shortlived Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) http://news.nationalpost.com/2013/03/12/lucky-moose-bill-loosens-self-defence-citizens-arrest-laws/ So the citizens arrest bill came into effect today. So now Canadians can arrest people they think are breaking the law, for example to defend their property. Even if they are not actively engaged in doing so when the arrest takes place. http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/lucky-moose-law-extending-powers-of-citizen-s-arrest-takes-effect-1.1190725 Edited March 12, 2013 by shortlived Quote My posts are sometimes edited to create spelling errors if you see one kindly notify me.

Boges Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 Who cares about the Lucky Moose law, where's the Moose Nuckle law? Quote
PIK Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 Good law. Makes the evil doers think twice about it knowing the citizen has the power. Quote Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.
cybercoma Posted March 16, 2013 Report Posted March 16, 2013 Just like they think twice knowing what they're doing is illegal or knowing that there are tough mandatory minimum sentences. Yup. Evil doers. Thinking twice. Quote

WWWTT Posted March 16, 2013 Report Posted March 16, 2013 Good law. Makes the evil doers think twice about it knowing the citizen has the power. LOL! Many people who commit these crimes are normal people who have no opportunity. WWWTT Quote Maple Leaf Web is now worth $720.00! Down over $1,500 in less than one year! Total fail of the moderation on this site! That reminds me, never ask Greg to be a business partner! NEVER!
