when you’ll have to deal with the police. As a Canadian, you are protected
against unlawful or unreasonable exercises of police , such as an <a href="https://expressdigest.com/when-can-the-police-search-you-in-canada/">unlawful search by police</a>. In case you are in a situation wherein you find yourself dealing with the

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%;">First of all, know that
you have a right to hire a lawyer or consult one before proceeding to answer
police questions. In fact, the police are legally bound to help you find a
lawyer or contact an existing one if you are detained or if you are in their
custody.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Once you determine your net worth, you can make the reimbursement of your loans and unpaid bills a priority, after which you can get started on the path to saving.</p><p>Three steps for measuring your net worth</p><p>First, calculate your total liabilities by adding up all your current debt amounts: outstanding credit card balances, mortgage loan, car loan, student loan, line of credit, personal loans, and so on.</p><p>Next, add up your assets: bank accounts, savings (RRSP, TFSA, RESP, stocks, bonds), potential pension funds, shares of a company, the value of a parcel of land, the cash surrender value of an insurance policy, etc.</p><p>Finally, subtract your total liabilities from your total assets. The result is your net worth.</p><p>For example, if you own a house with a market value of $200,000, a $20,000 vehicle, and $5,000 in bank savings, your total assets amount to $225,000. If you owe $215,000 on your mortgage, $15,000 on your car loan, and have unpaid student loans and credit card balances of $20,000, your liabilities add up to $250,000. Your net worth is therefore negative: -$25,000.</p><p>Since net worth is not a measure of what you possess, but of what you truly own, it is worth taking the time to reflect on another important factor: your lifestyle. Reviewing some of your living habits could be a very profitable thing to do, especially when your income is increasing. You could see the sums you set aside as savings grow more rapidly if you opt, for a while at least, to maintain your existing lifestyle rather than expanding it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Naturally, the choice is yours entirely: you can buy the car of your dreams for $100,000 and after a few years be the owner of a vehicle—the same one—worth $20,000. You will have an $80,000 write-off, or almost $160,000 in pre-tax terms. Or you could wisely invest the same $100,000 and, just 10 years later, find yourself with an extra $50,000 in funds.</p>Calvin Barryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12032482434260158246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2230555053724200916.post-4338760070210306522022-06-03T08:45:00.004-07:002022-08-29T07:11:38.104-07:00The Rights You Must Know if You Get Arrested in Canada<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZUhOR-dbpqvHy0ARG8X9HWvkGNBqaZgWdDbvEBmPmomusLcXm_UfF293k9GcAA9xtXX9f6WLddrx5V5YukdANaf7VzmyitJhY1BzU7gNh5InRETzJrojPaOcZXl0kD71ERJB4XMnfiTmXfgSclFRebdCMj5SqdAi-5UNpgUYIrObcSwWZEPJK75nwng/s730/When-Can-The-Police-Arrest-You-In-Canada.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="730" height="219" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZUhOR-dbpqvHy0ARG8X9HWvkGNBqaZgWdDbvEBmPmomusLcXm_UfF293k9GcAA9xtXX9f6WLddrx5V5YukdANaf7VzmyitJhY1BzU7gNh5InRETzJrojPaOcZXl0kD71ERJB4XMnfiTmXfgSclFRebdCMj5SqdAi-5UNpgUYIrObcSwWZEPJK75nwng/w400-h219/When-Can-The-Police-Arrest-You-In-Canada.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p><span style="font-size: 15pt; text-align: justify;">Getting arrested is far

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-size: 15pt; line-height: 115%;">The right to have an
attorney is a fundamental right and is protected under the Canadian Charter of
Rights and Freedoms. No matter what charge you’ve been arrested for (serious or
petty), the police are obligated to help you contact your lawyer and to not
force you to take a government lawyer if your chosen lawyer is not immediately
available. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-size: 15pt; line-height: 115%;">Note too that under this
right, you also have the right to talk to your lawyer even when you’re not
under arrest, such as in circumstances when the police request that you speak
to them or go to the station. This is because details you may share may be used
against you later. By having a </span><span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-size: 15pt; line-height: 115%;">criminal lawyer</span></span><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-size: 15pt; line-height: 115%;"> to consult with, you can better

Should the first court appearance is to be without a lawyer, the defendant can file a request for two to three weeks continuance to find and hire a DUI lawyer. In the event that the prosecutor provides a disclosure package containing witness statements and police notes, a charge screening form, and a synopsis of DUI charge, this should be safeguarded and shared with the selected lawyer.</p><h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; clear: both; color: #363772; font-family: "DM Serif Display", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">Going for A Guilty Plea</span></h3><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Hiring a DUI lawyer is a must even for those who plan to plead guilty. This is because even with a guilty plea, there are still negotiations to be done that can turn events to be more favourable for the defendant.</p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Note that pleading guilty will lead to a criminal conviction that will be tied to one’s name for life. It will be there no matter how much fine was paid and no matter how long a jail time was served. It is one thing to be accused and convicted and a totally different thing to convict one’s self. For one, holding a public office will be next to impossible as well as having a career as a medical professional, a legal professional, part of the law enforcement, and many more. You will have to be fully aware of the consequences of pleading guilty before doing so. Having a DUI lawyer can help you with this.</p><h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; clear: both; color: #363772; font-family: "DM Serif Display", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">Defend Against a DUI Charge</span></h3><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Choosing to fight a DUI Charge should begin with a good strategy formulated by a Criminal Lawyer. This requires a detailed initial consultation between the accused and the DUI lawyer to counter check all details which include but are not limited to:</p><ul style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: initial; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em 3em; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">What the accused drank or ingested</li><li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">What the police saw and said</li><li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">What the defendant saw and said</li><li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">How were the intoxication tests administered</li><li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Were there any witnesses</li><li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Was the protocol followed</li><li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">How the arrest was done</li></ul><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Part of the defense for a DUI charge is for the defendant to behave as a model citizen and not cause trouble during the case’s duration. This means dressing appropriately for court, showing up on time, responding respectfully when addressed, and generally showing a sense of social responsibility. Know that no matter how amazing a DUI lawyer is, things will not end well with a client that comes to court late and obviously intoxicated.</p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">A good DUI lawyer will prepare the client for cross examinations and giving testimonies, possibly going over questions the other party will ask to help the client be more confident and eloquent when speaking in court. All in all, a defendant that can show the court that he’s repentant and shows commitment to be a better person is a dream client to defend for DUI lawyers.</p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">A DUI conviction can mean a stain on your record that can affect what jobs you can take, where you can buy or rent a home, how much insurance you’ll have to pay, and more. You need to ensure that you don’t hurt your chances of getting a DUI pardon as soon as possible and that you have a DUI lawyer that can mitigate your charges. <a href="https://calvinbarry.ca/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit; color: #ba9a6c; text-decoration-line: none; transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;">Calvin Barry is a Criminal Defence Lawyer in Toronto</a> that can help with this. <a href="https://calvinbarry.ca/contact.html" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit; color: #ba9a6c; text-decoration-line: none; transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;">Contact us</a> today!</p>Calvin Barryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12032482434260158246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2230555053724200916.post-2114474172787720982021-10-26T09:04:00.002-07:002021-10-26T09:04:17.408-07:00Is It Possible To Get Fired For A DUI?<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlu4eMnWQgmx-ddyt_gNvyZrfNoNblDS1Rq-4dQD818g3Ny89aXCmUjfX5kdoLlHHbsrWakk3Fc9I-7p6zYth7ZNcLy0CcHhn1YVq6U83zh1XjBrwMWAi5MUsIRBB0XX09ab1KoiciYNO-/s830/DUI-lawyer.webp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="350" data-original-width="830" height="169" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlu4eMnWQgmx-ddyt_gNvyZrfNoNblDS1Rq-4dQD818g3Ny89aXCmUjfX5kdoLlHHbsrWakk3Fc9I-7p6zYth7ZNcLy0CcHhn1YVq6U83zh1XjBrwMWAi5MUsIRBB0XX09ab1KoiciYNO-/w400-h169/DUI-lawyer.webp" width="400" /></a></div><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">If you have been charged for impaired driving or over 80, you may be worrying whether this could get you fired from your job more so if your job requires that you have a license. You may be concerned that your employer will terminate your employment and want to know if they have a legal basis to do so. The best way to get the answers that you need is to get proper legal advice and take note of the facts below.</span></p><h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; clear: both; color: #363772; font-family: "DM Serif Display", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">Inform Your Employer About Your DUI</span></h3><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">If your job requires you to drive or have an active license, you must immediately let your employers know if you have a DUI Charge as well as any development that follows. You must not operate a vehicle with a suspended license and your employers should not force you either.</p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">If your license suspension is temporary, your employer can find you another task or role until you get your license back. If your loss of license is related to a disability or a disease (note that the Ontario Court of Appeal has declared that alcoholism is a disability) then your employer will be obliged to accommodate your loss of license as long as you are seeking proper treatment. This can mean being absorbed into another role in the company while your previous position remains open for you until you regain your ability to drive. If you will be fired for this, this might fall under disability-based discrimination in employment for which you could be entitled to general damages and wage losses compensation to be awarded by an Ontario Human Rights Tribunal.</p><h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; clear: both; color: #363772; font-family: "DM Serif Display", serif; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 400; line-height: 1.4; margin: 0px 0px 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">When Can Your Employer Fire You Over a DUI?</span></h3><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">An employer has no right to indefinitely suspend an employee following an impaired driving charge or an over 80 except in special circumstances. If the employer would do so, the employee will be deemed wrongfully terminated.</p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">An employee on a contractual job with stipulations for termination of the contract if an employee were to be charged with a DUI can be fired legally. Some jobs require you to drive like a <a href="https://haywoodhunt.ca/private-investigator-mississauga/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit; color: #ba9a6c; text-decoration-line: none; transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;">private investigator</a> or delivery service. Another situation wherein proper termination may be applicable is when the employee who has a DUI also happens to be involved in seriously negligent and dangerous behavior that could besmirch the employer’s reputation in the community. In some cases, the nature of the employer will be considered as well. For instance, if a person charged with a DUI is employed in an organization against drunk driving, then a misconduct related to drunk driving is a just reason for termination.</p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #61668f; font-family: Poppins, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Know that each employment situation is unique when it comes to having a DUI charge. The laws and protections that may apply to you may vary based on the specific circumstances surrounding your DUI charge. The best way to get clear answers is to consult with an <a href="https://calvinbarry.ca/lawyers/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit; color: #ba9a6c; text-decoration-line: none; transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;">experienced DUI lawyer</a> who is well versed with the defence of such cases.

<span class="placeline" face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">TORONTO - </span><span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">Punch drunk from revelation after revelation, there is one over arching question that seems to be ricocheting around the city.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">With all the damning information that has emerged, why have no charges been laid against Mayor Rob Ford?</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">In these last tumultuous days alone, the imploding mayor has made some startling confessions: he’s smoked crack cocaine, he’s purchased illegal drugs during the last two years and he has indeed driven under the influence of alcohol.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">And those are just his self-reported admissions of breaking the law. There are still the many other alleged episodes reported by Ford’s ex-staffers in explosive police interviews made public this week.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">In these recently uncensored pages, there are at least two disturbing witness accounts of former staffers being in Ford’s vehicle while he was allegedly driving after consuming alcohol.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">In the late spring of 2012, Jennifer Dwyer arrived at the mayor’s home to accompany him to an event. According to the court document, she texted another Ford employee to tell him the mayor was “impaired, driving very fast and that she did not know where she was going. Dwyer was scared in the vehicle.”</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">Former aide Chris Finkel told police he was a passenger in Ford’s Escalade on the way home from one of his high school football practices in the fall of 2012 when the mayor pulled over, grabbed a mickey of vodka out of an LCBO bag and in the space of two minutes, proceeded to chug it down between gulps of Gatorade. Ford then continued on his merry way.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">Fickel was alarmed enough to wisely get out of the car. He said he regrets not reporting the incident.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">Chief of Staff Earl Provost told investigators Ford was so intoxicated on the night of March 17, 2012 that he insisted on taking him home in a cab. But when the mayor got there, he got into his SUV and nearly struck the taxi as he speeded away.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">The police themselves had Ford under surveillance this summer during Project Brazen — which is an interesting moniker in retrospect — and watched him having a boozy lunch before getting back behind the wheel “under the influence of alcohol and or drug but not to the state of impairment.”</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">How could they know that if they didn’t bother to pull him over?</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">“If #RobFord won’t resign, how much evidence is needed to press charges given his drinking & driving, drug use & other criminal acts?” asks Robert Zaichowski on Twitter.</span><br />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">How much indeed?</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">The mayor has even dared them. “If I did something illegal then arrest me,” Ford said in speaking to a radio interviewer 10 days ago. “Obviously, I haven’t.”</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">Police Chief Bill Blair will only say that his officers conduct their investigations and then place the evidence they gather before the Crown attorney to decide if charges are laid — which seems rather disingenuous considering police arrest people all the time using their own discretion.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">But former Crown </span><span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #cc0000; font-size: 13.2px;">Calvin Barry</span><span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;"> explains that while “a lot of it is embarrassing and humiliating” there really isn’t enough here to make a charge stick against the mayor.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">The allegations of drunk driving are simply hearsay, accusations made to police long after the fact. There’s no officer who stopped him, smelled alcohol or asked for a breath test. “You need evidence of impairment,” said Barry, now a defence lawyer. “Within hours, all the evidence evaporates.”</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">What about the admission of buying illegal drugs? Barry says a vague confession isn’t enough: the person would have to be specific about what kind of drug, when and where it was purchased. Police would have to have it tested to prove that it was really a narcotic and not some other substance. “We don’t have any of that here,” he said.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">A current Crown attorney agreed, saying he also hasn’t seen enough to warrant a criminal charge. “There’s a very high threshold,” explained the prosecutor, who didn’t want his name used. “There’s no case here that you can prove beyond a reasonable doubt.”</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">But this Crown also predicts that may change in the near future.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<span face=""arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: 13.2px;">“There’s some kind of play going on,” he said. “There must be something in the works. I can’t imagine this is the end of the show here.”</span></div>

carry life-long consequences depending on the circumstances of the arrest. Not
only do these consequences affect the individuals involved by them serving jail
time, paying for fines, and losing one’s license, it can also lead to strains
in relationships and financial difficulties that can hurt entire families. If
you’re not sure how devastating drinking and driving can be, continue reading
below. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%;">What Defines Drunk
Driving?<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Drunk driving in Ontario
is defined as operating a vehicle with a blood alcohol level that is ‘above 80’
or having more than 80 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood. Note that this blood
alcohol level can vary between individuals who drank the same amount of alcohol
based on their gender, weight, height, metabolism, body types, and other
related factors. Some people may not seem impaired but have a high blood
alcohol level. As little as one to two drinks can make an individual impaired
if that individual has a slight frame and consumed the drinks within a short
span of time. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Why is Drunk Driving Taken

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-size: 15.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The consequences of
operating a vehicle when impaired can result in loss of life and permanent
physical damage if an accident occurs. This is why even first offences of drunk
driving can face relatively severe fines compared to other run-ins with the
law. Consequent charges of drunk driving are met with jail time, a criminal
record, and fines. This is not an over reaction by the law because drunk
driving remains as one of the top offences every year based on statistics.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

domestic violence is not explicitly written as an offence in the criminal code
of Canada? Yet, a charge of domestic violence is taken more seriously than
other forms of assault given the relationship between the victim who lives
together with the alleged abuser under the same roof. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The Nature of Domestic
Violence<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Most cases of domestic
violence occur between romantic partners and as a result, have a huge
psychological and emotional factor that needs to be considered as well. It is a
well-known fact that strong emotions can fuel people to act irrationally and do
things that they may regret later. It is important that the complainant should be
physically separated from the perpetrator to prevent escalation as well as
other complications. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Is Physical Violence A
Parameter for Determining Domestic Violence?<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">An alleged abuser does not
have to physically hurt the victim for a case to fall under a domestic violence
charge. Damaging property or preventing the use of someone’s belongings fall
under domestic violence. Even a small physical damage to things can mean a
charge of domestic abuse or violence. Verbal threats are likewise treated seriously
alongside harassment. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The police have a
zero-tolerance policy for possible cases of domestic violence. An alleged
victim’s words are enough for the police to get involved because the priority
is to keep the victim safe in this situation. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Sentence for Domestic

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;">Different offences carry
different punishments, with domestic offences often carrying heavier
punishments because they are considered more severe than other forms of
violence or assault. If you’ve been accused of domestic violence, it is
important to make sure that you aren’t charge for things that you did not

down businesses and entire cities, making people stay home in an effort to keep
safe and halt the spread of the virus. However, as millions of Canadians stay
home to help flatten the group, it is becoming more apparent that the home is
not a safe place for a vulnerable group of individuals. People who are in an
abusive home or abusive relationships have no choice but be confined at home
with their abusers. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

shared a story about a woman who told them that her home life has grown
increasingly violent since physical distancing and self-isolation began
becoming the norm. The woman’s husband is currently staying home from his job
and has been more violent, prompting the woman to escape to a shelter with her
two children in tow. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Not all victims of
domestic violence have access to shelters. With physical distancing protocols
in place, shelters are in full capacity and had to turn away some abuse
victims. Sakeenah Homes Shelter’s Zena Chaudry shared that they have been
getting more calls about emotional abuse, financial abuse, and physical abuse.
The same pattern is seen all over the world, with France reporting a 36%
increase in cases of domestic abuse. Meanwhile, China reported that calls to
their help lines increased three-fold and UK’s cases increased by 25%.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Google has been actively fighting off scam emails related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the latest report says the tech giant is blocking around 100 million <a href="https://www.haywoodhunt.ca/canadian-anti-fraud-centre-warns-of-the-following-covid-19-scams/" style="border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; color: #ee5921; font: inherit; margin: 0px; max-width: 100%; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">coronavirus scam emails</a> per day. The coronavirus emails are phishing attacks launched by scammers to collect data such as personal information from unsuspecting individuals. After collecting the information, the information will be used to hack accounts or to steal identities to commit more fraud.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.1em; margin: 1.5em 0px 8px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

Criminals are getting more creative and can even send emails that may seem like regular emails from banks, government offices, and billing companies. The latest scam email trend is to use the coronavirus pandemic as the email’s header to get people to click on an email and provide the information the scammers are looking for in order to commit fraud. It is estimated that there could be hundreds of millions of scam emails per day and Google is able to filter or block 100 million per day to protect the 1.5 billion people who are users of Gmail service.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.1em; margin: 1.5em 0px 8px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16.1px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.85em; margin-top: 0.85em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
What is particularly alarming is how the phishing emails would impersonate authorities and health agencies. A huge number of such emails are impersonating the World Health Organization to persuade people to donate to bogus causes or to download malware. Some emails sent by the cyber criminals imitate government institutions to capitalize on government support packages.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.1em; margin: 1.5em 0px 8px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16.1px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.85em; margin-top: 0.85em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Google is currently using their machine learning tools to block coronavirus phishing emails and they’ve been successful at blocking more than 99.9% of the emails from reaching their users. With this said, the emails are still around and increased significantly. In fact, several cyber security companies are currently looking into this and report that they’ve seen a 667% increase in phishing emails since the pandemic started.</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.1em; margin: 1.5em 0px 8px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16.1px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.85em; margin-top: 0.85em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Fraudulent emails could be from anywhere. There are some that are pretending to be from the UK government, some from those who are pretending to be from the CDC or Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, some that claim to be from specific politicians or world leaders, and some that claim to be from the World Health Organization. A rule of thumb for ignoring such emails is that if you are not signed up for an email service from a specific sender, then it is unlikely that they would have your contact details to send you emails.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16.1px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.85em; margin-top: 0.85em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
No matter how important an email sounds like, if it is asking you to provide personal information, to download something on your device, or to log-in at an app or a website that you haven’t heard of, simply report the email as fraud and do not open any links on it. Remember that cyber criminals are banking on confusion, fear, and other emotional responses to try to get people to do what they want when they are most vulnerable.</div>

Not even an economy-stopping pandemic will stop fraudsters. As more nations feel the grip of the increasing health crisis, <a href="https://www.haywoodhunt.ca/canadian-anti-fraud-centre-warns-of-the-following-covid-19-scams/" target="_blank">scammers are taking full advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic</a> to send fake emails to people tricking hapless victims into clicking on malicious links or attachments and revealing their personal information.</div>

A COVID-19 phishing email looks like a normal email complete with authentic-looking logos and branding. They often use the World Health Organization’s branding or logos or use the same from other public or government health agencies. Know that phishing is not limited to email, as some fraudsters resort to calling Canadian homes with offers of fake laboratory testing or fraudulent requests for donations.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16.1px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.85em; margin-top: 0.85em; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Scammers will send emails that will attempt to get your personal information or install malware into your mobile device or computer. Some will look like a donation link designed to capture your credit card information. Take the following steps to avoid becoming a victim.</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; color: #212121; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16.1px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: outside; margin: 0px 0px 20px 7px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<li style="border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0px 1em; padding: 3px 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Practice skepticism. No matter how authentic looking an email may be, try to be more skeptic and nitpick details in the email. If the email contains email addresses, toll-free numbers, or website links, you can double check by using a known email address, website, or email of the organization to avoid clicking on fake links and contacting the scammers directly. If you want to verify some information, know that the right information will be posted on your provincial health agency’s website or the Public Health Agency of Canada website.</li>
<li style="border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0px 1em; padding: 3px 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Always check the email address of the sender. Phishing emails use sender addresses or names that may look like the real thing, but if you hover on the sender’s name, the actual email doesn’t match the sender at all.</li>
<li style="border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0px 1em; padding: 3px 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Avoid clicking on attachments or links. Embedded links in phishing emails seem valid, but the address it links to is definitely not. If the link address seems suspicious or does not seem connected to the highlighted text, there is a big possibility that it is a phishing email. If there are any attachments that aren’t expected or seem out of place, it might be infected with malware.</li>
<li style="border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0px 1em; padding: 3px 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Be more vigilant. If an email is requesting for your financial information or personal data, that may be fake.</li>
<li style="border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0px 1em; padding: 3px 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Make sure that your devices are protected. Installing anti-spam, anti-malware, anti-virus, and anti-spyware software can seem like being too cautious but you’ll be happy that you have them for protection in case of a possible attack.</li>
</ul>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px rgb(225, 225, 225); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.1em; margin: 0px 0px 8px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

You can’t avoid receiving phishing emails because they are everywhere. What you can do is either report them or delete/block them. You can report the email to the organization being spoofed so that they can issue the necessary warnings for other people. By blocking or deleting the email, you can save yourself some wasted time and headache down the road.</div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Any crime accusation shouldn’t be
taken lightly. A wrongful accusation can destroy one’s life and cause a
whirlwind of effects that can hurt a lot of people. What can be a petty action
of someone who wants to cause harm to someone else can cause a series of events
that can’t be unturned. It is all too easy to fling accusations because of
emotions such as jealousy and vindictiveness but always remember that a crime
accusation will be processed like a serious criminal allegation.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 107%;">Most lawyers will say that it is best
to avoid situations wherein you can be wrongfully accused but when the
situation presents itself, advise to not take allegations lightly. Note that
any accusation will be taken seriously by the authorities more so if involving
a crime. It is best to </span><span lang="EN-PH"><a href="https://vimeo.com/calvinbarrylawyer"><span style="line-height: 107%;">consult a criminal lawyer</span></a></span><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 107%;"> as soon as possible to stop further

<span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">DUI is considered as a
criminal offence in Canada. Because of how serious a charge of driving under
the influence is, anyone who has been charged has the right to see any evidence
against himself. In the same vein, withholding evidence is equally as serious.
This is important to note because every little piece of evidence counts in
coming up with a conviction as well as forming a winning defense when it comes
to DUI charges. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;">If you’ve been arrested or
charged for a DUI, you must make sure that you are given the chance to see the
evidence against you before making a move that can lead to your conviction. Most
of the time, those who have been stopped for a possible DUI panic and immediately
admit to driving under the influence as soon as they get to the police station.
This is a huge mistake. Note that all and everything that you say can be used
against you; hence, it will help you more to try to avoid volunteering any information
without prior approval from your </span><span lang="EN-PH"><span style="line-height: 115%;">DUI lawyer</span></span><span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;">. A simple sentence uttered as a
mistake can lead to a conviction and make forming a DUI defence nearly

<span lang="EN-PH" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It is possible that not
all the evidence your lawyer may need to form a good DUI defence will be
included in the evidence showed to you. In this scenario, your lawyer can ask
for copies of footage, videos, and any other record that may exist related to
your DUI charge. Procuring all these data will take time and can be nerve-wracking,
especially when court dates get moved and you are left wondering what the outcome
will be. Your only real choice is to wait things out and go over each piece of
evidence with your lawyer even though doing so might make you worry more. This
part of the process isn’t about nursing your feelings but about making sure
that one alcohol-tinged incident does not end up defining the rest of your
life. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

This years fundraiser, which took place July 5th at the Courthouse Hotel raised a total of $8,035, which will go towards purchasing much needed specialized urology equipment needed in the operating room. Calvin and Sophie were generous enough to cover all the expenses for the event, so the full amount raised can go directly to purchasing the equipment. It was a night of fun, laughter, live music, food and drinks, with special guest Dr. Hazem Elmansy.</div>

Mortgage fraud and real estate fraud are on the rise; and the frauds associated with them may take many different forms. As unsavoury as it is to think that these types of fraud happen around us, it is really of little wonder because fraudsters are opportunists and as such, they go for the biggest cons they can accomplish. Examples of the biggest heists in fraud are real estate fraud and mortgage fraud.<br />
It is important to remember that the fraudsters behind mortgage fraud and real estate fraud are con artists who know how to use modern technology to their pull off their fraudulent schemes. They are able to do this because they know how the real estate process works and are able to spot loopholes that they can use against their victims.<br />
<h3>
<strong>Real Estate Title Fraud</strong></h3>
Real estate title fraud is often made to look like a legitimate real estate deal by the fraudsters claiming that they now own the target property because it was sold or gifted to them by the owner. The usual target here are seniors because it is more believable for a senior homeowner to sell or give their home away, aside from the fact that they usually have the largest assets which makes them attractive targets for fraudsters.<br />
The thief obtains the land title of the victim’s home using a fake transfer document. The details in the document are usually compiled from information that were carelessly shared online (like posting photos of official documents on social media) or from a compiled database full of identity-theft data from target victims.<br />
<h3>
<strong>Mortgage Fraud</strong></h3>
The title is then used to get a mortgage that the fraudster will never pay. The hapless homeowner is usually informed only when the home is near foreclosure. Imagine losing your home without knowing anything about an unpaid mortgage!<br />
The average real estate fraud costs around $300,000. Nearly none of the fraudsters involved in schemes like this are ever caught and the homeowners are the ones who are left to cope with the aftermath.<br />
<h3>
<strong>How to Prevent Mortgage Fraud and Real Estate Fraud</strong></h3>
People who have access to your personal information may use what they know about you to target you for fraud. The first step towards protecting yourself from being a target for fraud is to restrict what personal information you share publicly and limit who can access your information in the real world.<br />
The above means doing all that you can to prevent identity theft and not being too trusting of neighbours, friends, caretakers, or even distant relatives. Your mail, bank statements, deeds and titles, insurance information, and all financial details must be kept where only you or a person you trust can access. This also means not giving away sensitive information over the phone (some fraudsters will pretend to be from the bank), not writing down your credit card details where unauthorized people may see them, and destroying mail before throwing it in the trash; basically following all the sensible steps to avoid fraud.<br />
