Provincial Offences: Essential Tools for Law Enforcement, 6th Edition

Charles Lawrence
Available

Provincial Offences: Essential Tools for Law Enforcement, 6th Edition provides students with an understanding of their future responsibilities in law enforcement, at the level of provincial laws. Through a discussion of 18 provincial acts, along with engaging exercises and videos, students will learn to interpret and apply laws in common situations, including those involving community safety, mental illness, substance abuse, automobile collisions, and sudden deaths.

The sixth edition reflects all legislative amendments that have come into effect since the previous edition and introduces new It’s Your Move scenarios that immerse students in real-world situations they will encounter during their law enforcement careers. Each video challenges students to analyze how specific provincial regulations apply to the situation, reinforcing comprehension of acts such as the Safe Streets Act, Mental Health Act, Liquor Licence and Control Act, 2019, and Trespass to Property Act.
