I'm 25 and I'm being convicted for Theft Under, Possession of property by stealing a license plate. I wasn't caught driving the car, I was caught when towing my car. After that I gave a police statement saying what the story is hoping that I might receive Diversion since this is my first criminal offense. I don't have much money so paying for an expensive lawyer isn't much of an option, apparently I don't have much of a shot getting a legal aid because it's my first offense. What should I do? Is this going to be permanent? Will I ever get to travel again? Is their any places that will help for cheap? Thank you to all responses in advance

By the way I'm being convicted in york region and I live in Toronto, Ontario
