History of Criminal Law
According to the BNA, both the Federal
and Provincial governments are
responsible for enacting criminal laws
SHARED Jurisdiction
Our Criminal Code enacted in 1892 is
derived from the British Criminal Laws

Criminal Law Jurisdiction
Both the Federal and Provincial
governments are responsible for enacting
criminal laws
Provincial governments provide power to
municipalities to enact their own laws
called bylaws
This is why criminal courts are at the
federal and provincial level.

Provincial Courts
The lowest level of Canadian Courts
Consists of Provincial Courts & Superior
Courts
- Regular Provincial Court consists of trial
divisions
- Superior Courts consist of trial and appeal
divisions
![Page 6: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Federal Court System
Consists of a Trial Division, an Appeal Division,
and the Supreme Court of Canada
The trial division can hear civil issues that
involve the federal government
The Federal Courts also have jurisdiction to
hear appeal cases from federally appointed
boards and commissions like the Human Rights
Commission.

Omission of an Act
some crimes are not the acts that you
commit but rather the failure to act in
certain situations
Example: next slide
![Page 10: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Omission of an Act - Example
If a father watches his child drown in
a shallow pool and does nothing,
he may be guilty of homicide on
account of the responsibility he
holds for his child's life.
![Page 11: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Other Omissions of an Act
Failing to:
pay taxes
child support,
and alimony
are a few recognizable examples of
omission
![Page 12: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
4 Conditions of a CRIME
The act is considered wrong by society
The act causes ‘harm’ to society in
general or to those who need protection
The ‘HARM’ must be serious
The ‘REMEDY’ must be handled by the
criminal justice system
![Page 13: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Criminal Law
What do these laws do?
Protect people and property
Maintain order
Preserve standards of public decency
![Page 14: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Criminal Code of Canada
Canada’s Federal Statute that identifies the
majority of criminal laws
Includes crimes and punishments
Can be changed or amended based on
changes in public sentiment or technological
advances
![Page 15: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Elements of a Crime
To convict someone of a crime, the Crown
usually has to prove two things existed at
the time the offence was committed:
1.the act itself
2. the intention to commit the act
These elements are referred to as actus reus
and mens rea
![Page 16: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Actus Reus Final Words
Actus reus has to be voluntary, not forced
by someone else
I threaten you to commit a robbery is not
a voluntary act
You are sleepwalking and commit an
offence = no actus reus
Reflex reactions = no actus reus
Case page 148 – Perjury
![Page 17: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Actus Reus & Omission
Failing to do something can be considered
a wrongful act
Example
New (and by definition inexperienced)
parents do not give their baby enough to
eat
Baby dies of malnutrition
S. 215(1) says those parents can be
charged with failure to provide their
baby with the necessities of life
![Page 18: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Actus Reus & State of Being
Your friend says that he / she has a MacBook
in his / her car that he / she no longer
needs. He / she says you can have it
You later find out the MacBook was stolen
during a home invasion
Being in possession of stolen goods is an
offence where the wrongful act is a state of
being
What’s another example of state of being?
![Page 19: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Mens Rea & Intent
Intent = meant to do something wrong,
recklessly disregarding the consequences,
and knew or should have foreseen the
results
wilfully or intentionally are words that show
intent
assault was defined as “applies force
intentionally”
intentionally shows the mens rea of assault
![Page 20: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Cannot find glasses and
decide to drive without
them.
Consciously taking an unjustified risk that a
reasonable person would not take
Recklessness (Mens Rea)
![Page 21: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Wilful Blindness(Mens Rea)
A deliberate closing of one’s mind to the
possible consequences of one’s actions.
Buying Stolen property
![Page 22: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Explain Motive vs Intent
Motive is a person's reason for committing a
crime, whereas intention relates to a person's
state of mind and willingness to break the law.
![Page 23: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Specific and General Intent
What are the two types of
Intent?
![Page 24: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Specific and General Intent
General means that the person had intent to
commit the act without any other motive
Specific Intent = the commission of one
wrongful act in order to accomplish another
Specific is harder to prove than general
Perjury is an example of specific intent
![Page 25: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
What are the two types of Offences?
Summary
Indictable
![Page 26: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Summary vs Indictable Offences
Not so serious vs serious offence
![Page 27: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Summary Conviction &
Indictable Offence
A Summary Conviction is a minor offence
that carries a relatively light penalty.
Generally the maximum penalty is up to
$2000 or 6 months in jail.
An Indictable Offence is a serious crime
and carries a heavy penalty. The Criminal
Code can have penalties for indictable
offences ranging from 2 years to life in
prison.

What is Due Diligence?
Due diligence can be used as a defense.
Due Diligence states that the offender did
everything they could to avoid breaking the law
(ie when you have a car accident that prevents
you from getting an MVI) – this is actually absolute
liability
![Page 30: Criminal Law Review - Wikispacesmrdaviswiki.wikispaces.com/file/view/Crime & Criminal Law Review... · Criminal Law Jurisdiction Both the Federal and Provincial governments are responsible](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022006/5acaed337f8b9a40728e9536/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Strict Liability Offences
Strict liability offences often involve environmental
pollution laws that companies may infringe.
Due diligence can be used as a defense.
