Hello

here are the info :

What are provincial offences?

Provincial offences are non-criminal charges, primarily laid by the police, including those committed under the following:

* Highway Traffic Act - such as speeding, careless driving, or not wearing your seat belt
* Compulsory Automobile Insurance Act - such as failing to surrender your insurance card, or possessing a fake or invalid insurance card
* Liquor Licence Act - such as being intoxicated in a public place or selling alcohol to a minor
* Trespass to Property Act - such as entering premises when entry is prohibited or failing to leave premises after being directed to do so
* City by-laws - such as infractions under Ottawa's noise, taxi and animal care by-laws

Most provincial offence charges result in out-of-court fine payments. Citizens issued with provincial offence tickets should read them carefully for a complete list of their payment and trial options.
and an example of the ticket that I paid :



tell me if it shows in my record , like security clearance and any background check in canada. the reason of the ticket was shoplifting

thanks

Hello again nat:

In my opinion, nobody wants to respond to you, because you were told, in minute detail, exactly what to do. You didn't do it.

I don't think it was malicious, on your behalf. I just don't think you understood what you were being told. I still don't think you understand your situation. Further advice would be pointless.

I can not tell you on Canada, I know in the US, that traffic offenses show up only on a traffic check ( which is also done to get a national security clearnance)

In the US, auto insurnace shows up on the traffic report, which is also ran for a national security report

In the US tresspassing falls under criminal code and is included

In the US, city laws are divided under code offeness ( tall grass, trash on property) which are not part of the criminal record, and criminal charges, from possession of drugs, to littering.

Even amoung the states in the US, some charges vary, but on the NCIC, national records, all criminal charges are shown, including tresspassing.

But for a national security background check, they also run a traffic report which includes any and all traffic offenses.

Thanks so much. Anyone knows about rules in Canada regarding the above matters that Chuck mentioned and my case.

I appreciate your help

According to " http://www.winnipeg.ca/finance/findata/matmgt/documents/2002/160-2002/160-2002_Bid_Opportunity.pdf"

"To obtain the security clearance, the person must be free of any convictions or pending charges related to property offences or crimes against another person


Since my English is not good enough I appreciate if anyone tell me what does it mean "pending charges related to property offences" so my case is including to the three above condition? Again what I got at the same day is "Provincial offence notice ticket" exactly something like traffic ticket, and had to pay fine to the treasure of the city.

Thanks a lot, and sorry to keep asking.

what does "non-moving violations" mean? is shoplifting included?


"THE OFFENCE NOTICE

The Offence Notice is issued for parking or non-moving violations. The Offence Notice is given by the Municipality where the offence occurs.

Penalty: A fine, which increases as time passes to encourage early payment. If the fine is not paid it is possible that a summons will be issued and you will be required to attend court. The amount of the fine and when it is due is stated on the ticket.

To Dispute:
Go to City Hall and follow the procedure described by the clerk. "

here says "Can employers, community agencies and educational institutions find out if I have criminal record?

Only if you give them your consent in writing. In Canada, no one can find out if someone else has a criminal record unless the person gives their consent. If you sign a consent form, then employers and others can get a criminal record check done. A criminal record check will only tell if you have a criminal record or not. Any crimes you were convicted of will not be listed. If you have a criminal record, the only way someone can see it is if you get a copy for them. You can get a copy of your criminal record by mailing your fingerprints to the RCMP (see Step 1). "

so , do I have a criminal record ? I know I am not convicted but I am not sure if i have criminal record or not?

thanks, and sorry to post lots of questions

natalija

this is canadian law" If you have been convicted of a federal offence, you will have a criminal record. A criminal record can hurt your career, job opportunities and ability to work in certain professions and ability to travel. A pardon removes some of the limitations of having a criminal record."

so it means I do not have a criminal record, because I did not get any federal offence. But i HAVE TO CLAIM THAT i WAS ARRESTED and I have a police record .

am i right?
