At all times say as little as possible to the police. Whenever you are stopped or questioned, you have a right to know the officer’s name and badge number. Ask whether you are under arrest. Unless you are arrested, driving a car, or being questioned for vagrancy, you do not have to say anything, even your name.

DWELLING HOUSE

If the police come to your house, demand to see the warrant or writ of assistance. If they don’t have one, don’t let them in. There are two exceptions to this: 1) if they are in hot pursuit of a criminal they have seen enter your house; or 2) if they have probable grounds to believe there is a crime being committed on the premises, probable grounds means, for example,'if they hear sounds of a fight.

Warranm must carry the correct date and must specify who or what is being searched for. If the warrant is for the arrest of a person and you produce that person, you don’t have to let them in. You never have to leta social worker into your home, ‘ unless he or she has a warrant. If the police or anyone enters illegally you must first demand that he leave your property - if he

doesn’t comply, you are legally justified in using only as much force as is necessary to remove him. (Sections 4041 of the Criminal Code of Canada). If your door has! a chain lock, use it. The police frequently push open an unlocked door when they have no warrant

(common in dope raids) they can and will break in, probably through several entrances simultaneously, without knocking.

ON TH E STREET You do not have to answer any questions, even your name, or show any I.D. unless the officer is questioning you under section 164 (for vagrancy). If

he is using this section, you.

must give him your name and one of: (a) your address, (b) your destination, or (c) source of income. After you have given this information, walk away. You don’t have to talk to him. He cannot require you to get into his car or move anywhere unless he

' clearly states that you are’

under arrest.

ASSAULTli If you are attacked without provocation by a police of- ficer you have the legal right to use as much force as is necessary to defend yourself

The Cadre , Oct. a page 8

Know your rights . . .

enforce your rights

(Section 34 of the Criminal Code). Don’t let the police provoke you by pushing or bad mouthing, etc. If an officer tries to force you to enter his car without first arresting you he is acting illegally; and, in theory, according to Section 29 of the Criminal Code, you can resist. In. practise, it is useless to fight unless there are witnesses around, and you think you can win. Together we will work for the time and we will always win.

ARREST

Section 29 of the Criminal Code states that a reason must be given for an arrest. This means that they must have a warrant in your name, or catch you in the act of committing a crime, or have reasonable grounds for believing that you have committed or are about to commit a crime. If the of- ficer does not have a warrant, he must tell you the true grounds for arrest. Resisting arrest is often the charge they get someone on, after a “bullshit” bust. You should be certain that the arrest is illegal (no warrant and no reasonable grounds) before you resist. You can be fairly certain that any doubt as to what is reasonable will be resolved against you.

IF YOU ARE ARRESTED

DON’T SAY ANYTHING! The police will usually try to engage you in “friendly” conversation in the car and/or on the way to the station. This is the oldest evidence-getting trick in the book. DON’T SIGN ANYTHING. Theywillaska lot of questions at the station. Give only your name and address and demand your right to a phone call. Unless you are charged with. an indictable offence, you can and should refuse to be photographed and finger- printed. (Vagrancy, theft under $50.00, creating a

disturbance, etc.) are not.

indictable. They have the right to seize weapons (in- cluding your belt and shoelaces) and evidence related to the charge. They

, do not have the right to take

merely for safekeeping, money, your wallet, or

papers, etc.

DRIVING A CAR

If you are pulled over while driving a car first, lock all the doors and roll up all the windows, except leave the driver’s window open just wide enough to give the officer your driver’s license, registration and insurance. He cannot require you to get out of the car unless you are under arrest. Nor can he require you to open the car to him unless he is conducting a

legal search as outlined below. No one else in the car

should do or say anything.

SEARCHES

The only time that you havetosubmittoasearchof your person before arrest is if: (a) the search is con- ducted under the Narcotics Control Act, (b) if the search is conducted under“ the Government Liquor Act, or (c) if you are in a house being searched under a Writ of Assistance. The Govern- ment Liquor Act and the Narcotics Control Act also give police the right to search your car. If you are - arrested, and only after you are arrested, you can be searched for weapons and evidence related to the charge.

MOVEABLE PROPERTY

Police may not seize kyour movable property unless it is specified in a writ or, warrant, com under the Government. Liquor Act or Narcotics Control Act, or is evidence related to a charge. Such evidence, and any legal weapon, may only be seized if you are arrested. You have the right to defend your property with as much force as is necessary providing you state your claim to be in legal possession of it. (Section 39 of the Crimiml Code).
