In Canada, although many new immigrants have considerable quality, they still violate the law because they are not familiar with Canadian laws, which leads to tragedy. In the face of the police, judges, and lawyers, they often have to suffer. On the one hand, they were punished, and on the other hand, the lawyers they hired did not plead their innocence. Let’s take a look at the following three examples of legal common sense that you must know in Canada!
First, the Canadian international students encountered disputes on the road, made a gesture and scolded a few words, which led to the warning of the police.
Second, the new immigrant gently touched the driver's arm after the Canadian bus driver suspected that his monthly pass had been confiscated, and wanted to return the monthly pass. This small act not only attracted the police to search the body, but also shackled the upper body, and finally was brought to court.
Third, when the new immigrant took a step forward while being inspected by the police, the police beat him.
These three vivid facts happened among our compatriots. Because the parties concerned did not understand Canadian law, they mostly dealt with the incident by instinct and the customary method in China, but unexpectedly caused a lot of trouble. In the first case, people in China have long been accustomed to cursing a few words and arguing. But in Canada, the police have to take care of it to the end.There was no trauma in the second incident. In China,it is not even a civil case, but a public security case at best. It can be a criminal case in Canada because there is physical contact between the two. Since it's a criminal case, of course you'll be searched and handcuffed to court. New immigrants should hire a lawyer to handle related matters. Even if he is found not guilty, his fingerprints and other criminal records cannot be cleaned at that time, and it will take a year. In the third case, when the police stop by, you'd better not do any tendentious actions, because it is easy to be suspected of assaulting the police. If there are enough witnesses, it is also possible to file a high claim against the other party and succeed.
The breadth and detail of Canadian law is astounding. Taking away a few thumbtacks will lead to notoriety and even affect business; if you have a spat with a store clerk, you will not only be punished with money, but you will also be warned; if a bicycle does not have a brake on the road, you will have to accept a fine of 100;
It was found that these incidents of breaking the law out of thin air happened to new immigrants. With the reports of the news media, we should also do a good job in legal education for new immigrants. Hope that new immigrants can learn from mistakes, and hope that such incidents will not happen to new immigrants.
There are many differences between China and Canada. Faced with this situation, although the Immigration Service Center has opened a variety of lectures, the content involves legal knowledge. However, there is still too little legal knowledge explained at present. It is hoped that the compatriots will master legal common sense as soon as possible, and also ask the immigration department to increase corresponding services.
