Häufig gestellte Fragen

The Criminal Code lets the owner, or someone they authorize, arrest a person found committing a criminal offence on the property, and the person must be handed to police right away. Provincial trespass laws add their own rules, and many employers limit arrests by policy.

Stay safe and at a distance, call 911, and record descriptions and licence plates. Do not chase or block anyone.
