Since Yaniv got this wonderful subforum, the conversations have been classic. But one thing I've noticed is a lot of five second browsing for Canadian laws, misinterpretations, and then Canadians having to come in and set the record straight. I for one actually would like to see where English Common Law has diverged between the US and our neighbors to the north. I don't think we have the equivalent of a Canadian Nick Rekieta, but having citizens come in and clear up misconceptions would be quite nice.

Sorry to cite you @ComeGetSome , but you helping to correct the aforementioned misconceptions has been enlightening. Best example:

Which is kinda the point I was trying to make. Don't quote US laws when talking about Canadian crimes. Laws have boundaries. Also, potentially PIPEDA but that's already been called out.

(Edit: I'll start linking to @branwen and @ComeGetSome 's responses in this thread as they are Canadians and are very informed of Canadian laws.)

Here are topics I think we need to clear up:

• Strata property law
• Firearms/weapons regulations
• Health records/subpoenas
• Human Rights Tribunals
• Civil rights laws in Canada
• Castle Doctrine/Stand your ground
• Privacy laws (in:re recording in public, e.g. reporters, WGKitty, Yaniv's Ring, at the BCHRT, etc.)
• Welfare and disability
• Local RCMP vs. Federal RCMP
