The Police ARE NOT your friend. Those words are so true. Im glad videos like this are out there for people to see.

The first rule of talking to the police is don't talk to the police.

1:15 The police aren’t your friends and they are not there to help you. - no truer words have ever been said

More Canadians need to hear, learn and internalize this advice. It could make a world of difference in your life, and in the difficulty of the task set before your lawyer. The RCMP, the OPP, the VPD are not there to help you. They're there to get convictions as expediently as possible, no matter how innocent or guilty you are.

You might mention that 1. The police are legally allowed to lie to you and about you. 2. The police consider anything you say as evidence--by saying anything you're the source of evidence that may convict you. 3. The police do not care if you're innocent; they only care that they can make and close a case, even if that means you go to jail for something you did not do. 4. For the police Rule #1 is close the case whether the defendant is guilty or not. 5. For the police Rule #2 is see Rule #1.

Trust me folks, he's right! this is the best LIFE advice you'll ever get...remember it!

Only a drunk person or an idiot would talk to cops, in fact never approach police, it’s not that their bad people it’s just that they have a job to do which is to find anything incriminating against you

"50% of you will talk" ... actually it's been proven in the USA, when suspects are read their Miranda rights, 80% of suspects waive these rights, which is always a terrible decision for obvious reasons. And that's where the police MUST read you your rights; I don't believe the police in Canada have to read you your rights. So in Canada, I'm sure over 90% will talk, not just 50%.

Good to have this from a Canadian channel. I was just rewatching that old "Don't Talk to the Police" video, and it occurred to me that in most areas I know a lot more about American law than I do about Canadian law. I wasn't even sure if I had the same right to silence or right against self-incrimination. Seeing this video is a coincidence (I'd already found it before looking up Canadian law, not knowing it was made by a Canadian firm), but it's good to have it spelled out in plain English that the advice is substantially the same.

ABSOLUTELY Stay Silent!

I have lived in Canada for twenty years and my wife has lived here her whole life, we have three teenagers who drive the oldest for over three years. Never has any of us been pulled over. In fact we see few cops. Unlike when we cross the border where they are literally everywhere.

No - pigs are not your friends.

It's shocking that after seeing this 50% of people will still yap yap yap. Unbelievable.

Don't do the cops job for them.

Exercise your right for legal council. NO COMMENT with officers.

When I was in training as a social worker, we were told to NEVER SAY ANYTHING YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR REPEATED IN COURT. Damned good advice. But even that might be too much. "Authorities" and lawyers are trained in techniques which will twist your words and your intentions so wildly out of context you won't believe you're on the same planet.

Always Attorney up and remain Silent. Hire a Attorney. Thank you for this video

Never talk to the police even with your attorney present. Communicate through your attorney, never communicate directly. Remember the police can lie to you to get you to incriminate yourself and that will not be thrown out at a suppression hearing. if the individuals that I represent had just followed that simple procedure, my job of defending them would be so much easier.

Please go deeper into Canadian and province law about talking to the police. Thank you!

Yes, I can see why we would be prone to tell our truth, but as you say, they are building a case not being a mediator or counselor. Great advice, thanks

Thanks for educating us

Thank you for enlightening us Canadians on the law!

Thank you! 👍🏻

If your guilty you need a lawyer, if your innocent you definitely need a lawyer!

Nice to see a Windsor lawyer dispensing this invaluable advice.

The police are not your friend

If they believe they have enough grounds to arrest you, Let them use it in court. There is no need for you to talk and give them information they don't have. And then whatever information they need that they don't get out of you they get it out of your lawyer.

Thanks for uploading! I am now subscribed :)

Love it. Thank you for posting this. Such important information. We need more people like you in this world! Many Thanks!

Thank you very much for this video. i will watch all of your videos. i totally agree of what you said.

Here is what I have heard after telling the police “I want to talk to my lawyer”, they then come back and say “so you are guilty, otherwise you would not need a lawyer”.

Very well said

What if they come talk to me for my side and it isn’t a criminal violation? Just a ticket for a “pushing match”?

Always Attorney up and remain Silent. Miranda rights remain Silent. Always Attorney up and remain Silent.

Short answer: No Long answer: Nooooo

Attorney up always. Tell the police have a good day. Remain Silent

Attorney up always. Tell the police have a good day and remain Silent. Always Attorney up and remain Silent.

the “rolling ride check” is my favourite thing… this seams like a no reason excuse to pull me over, it happened to me after an afternoon shift on my way home from work

Always Attorney up and remain Silent. Miranda rights. Hire a good Attorney who will fight for you. Remain Silent Always

Thank You sir for your time and effort. People must learn to exercise their rights!

When I did that the lawyer that was assigned to me told me to just plead guilty, and that my night would be esier that way.

Thank you for sharing your expertise

Thanks for the advice now I know

Always Attorney up. Tell the police have a good day. Remain Silent.

Thank You. Anything promoting rights is good.

I believe you, thanks.

Exactly. Police in Canada are not your friends. Neither the lawyers. Man, I remember when I was charged how I wanted to tell my story at least to someone... Nobody cared. I never had a chance to tell, my story to anyone. Nobody ever was in a position to hear it... I represented me myself and won in two criminal and following civil courts. They dropped the charges before any hearing. So sad. I wanted everyone to hear my story. 😊

Always Attorney up. Tell the police have a good day. Remain Silent and always Attorney up

Always Attorney up and remain Silent. Hire a professional Attorney.

I read in the news about someone who was arrested for murder and confessed to the murder in a recorded interrogation with police. Court dismissed the murder charge because a lawyer was not present during the interrogation.

Thanks!

Great video thankyou

The problem in Canada is innocent people could get charged on the basis of preventive security. So they can be detained in spite of charter of rights . Then, they pay tons of money to a lawyer to get them bailed , then conditionally discharged. Guess what ? The Crown had the intention to do that from the beginning, and the lawyer helped the crown not the accused to achieve that goal. Under these circumstances if a police officer hates someone, it is enough to tell the crown that guy could represent risk potentially . The most weird thing in Canada police and minister of safety blame the judiciary for rampant crime , and interfere in the crown office affairs publicly. It should be mentioned that the legal process could destroy someone's life, even if he is discharged at the end

I believe you.

I just came across you videos n enjoying them, I respect good police and trust none. police are doing stupid things to lose the respect of the people.

Thanks for the information

if a cop were your friend, they wouldn't have pulled you over to begin with

Does anyone reading this have any advise on how to stay silent under pressure? How not to crack? I know here and now when I'm comfortable in my own home I'll stay silent, but trapped in a police station with officers who can keep me there for a long time badgering me, putting the pressure on me who knows?

Would you also follow this advice if you were a witness to a crime?

Saynothing police is ot your friends only your lawyer understood sir

BUT I did ask for a lawyer during questioning, and still asked questions, asked for a lawyer, still kept going, asked for a lawyer, kept asking me more questions for an hour. Not a charter violation?

Can you please do a video talking about any exceptions to the rule of not talking to the police?

Fact. You don't have to prove your innocence.

The police can do anything to you they want ,anytime they want . They have no legal obligation to respond to your 911 call. In the states they say now your rights ,here know you have non

Dont be afraid to just be honest with the police. Arresting officer or not.

Yep.

Can you remain silent even if you’re not in custody? Like if youre driving and you’re pulled over ?

If you do not talk with the police, then they will get their associates after you - Hamilton, Ontario, 🍁 - It can result in intimidation + violent assault and even worse 😢

When approached by the cops on the street, first thing you do is pull your phone camera and video them and ask for their name and badge number, because as public servants, they have to give that to you and if you have not committed any sort of infraction and they ask you for your I.D. do not give it to them, because in order for you to have to show I.D. they have to be able to articulate a crime you're about to commit, in the process of committing or you have committed, otherwise you're under absolutely no obligation to disclose your information. And don't give in to their intimidation tactics of say You're acting suspicious or you fit the description of someone we're looking for, because neither one of those can be used as a prerequisite in order for you to divulge your information. Because they'll use those on you whether it's true or not. However, these are the reason's I don't carry I.D. so that if they do arrest me, it's not there for them to take.

Could you do more videos like this?

I have a question. A couple of weeks ago I was parked in a parking lot, having a coffee, reading & waiting o pick up a family member from work to take them to an appointment. I didn't want to drive all the way home & come back out again later. So, I parked. Now, when the time came to leave an RCMP officer pulled into the parking lot turned around & pulled me over. It took about 2-3 minutes before he came to my window. I'm assuming he already checked my plates & would've seen that I have ZERO priors & no warrants against me. So, walks up & asked for everything. He said there was a call that came in from a guest at the hotel that her ex was following her & she was terrified. I'm sure she would've given her BF's identity to whomever she was talking to. I didn't record & I complied with everything he asked. Did I have to in this situation? I've always had the attitude of complying is easier to do when you know you've done nothing wrong. Cheers

If I have the right to remain silent and anything I say could be used against me, then why dont I have the right to speak and anything I say be used for me?

Like the video. Mentioning like the video helps

So ur say cops dont care if your inocent they just want a coviction

Yep pretend to be searant Sholtz ..... I say nothing, I see nothing, I know nothing !

At what point do the police have to inform you of this right? I do know they did not do this in Kawartha Lakes on a caution reading to an upset wife and also charged the husband and went through the picking up the items by the wife, the paperwork, and then did arrest after 1/2 hour of this when they finally informed of this right.

Kruse Law: Are you saying or advising not to even say the phrase "I didn't do it"? no matter how innocent you are?

Speaking to the police has never been a problem for me. But then again you look up the definition of innocent and you will see my picture. I'm not even guilty of other crimes! So you can imagine how much the truth and I have such a relationship that I can feel free to say the truth, and when cops search me the truth is self evident! The police pulled me over once and called a K-9 unit to search my car. The dog hit indicating it found something! I allowed them to look and couldn't find anything! No worries, I don't break laws! Then they questioned me and insisted their dog can't be wrong so the only thing I know is I bought the car from someone, and as to their practices? I'm not aware of. They insisted and I said "Well! Do you want to search the car again"? They couldn't get away fast enough! Try being honest

The sucky thing is when you get in the cell that phones recorded usually they don't give you a phone fast at the police station call my lawyer have them come down here I paid him $20,000 my lawyer The cop like nope

Thank you it kind of sucks when you keep saying I plead the fifth and then they bring it before judge and say look he keeps talking he's asking for water he's pleading the fifth he's asking for a lawyer he's asking for food ya been there 8 hours 2 in the morning they're asking for your cell to sleep

Look to dean clifford And never engage cops. If they ask questions, answer them with questions.

Is this tip holds true in the UK?

I hear "name, rank, serial number" - the rule soldiers go by when captured by the enemy. Same applies in Canada with citizens... if they're smart. Give police your name, address, birth date... and then SHUT UP. As was said, the police have "techniques"... such as LYING TO YOUR FACE. You cannot because if you do you'll be charged with Obstructing Police. So shut your trap... even to seemingly "friendly" conversation such as "How are you?" Say you answer "OK." Well, it could be highly likely in court a year later you'll hear that cop testify that you said you were "fine" when questioned, just as your defence attorney is trying to convince the court that you were out of your mind with fear. SHUT UP. SHUT UP. SHUT UP.

I just cheese it man when I see The Fuzz ! Oink Oink !

Try that in China

If I am an American pulled over in Canada, what rights do I have?

Is this for Canada 🤔 ty

Do you still have to give your name and address ? Or just remain silent ?

A.C.A.B

Are the police allowed to threaten you with a citation if you don't answer their questions?

If we have the right to remain silent them how come they can screw you if you refuse a breathalizer?. I request to remain silent and dont answer questions or open my mouth after that, why not??

What are you talking about. Law abiding Canadians don’t have any rights in Canada

👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Subscribe i hope I won't need lawyer and if I do I will for sure use ur expertise sir

But IF you're guilty, isn't it the right thing to do to admit it?

You don't talk and the police stop investigating..take others words as truth and then if you can't afford a lawyer you are f☆☆☆☆☆

Talk to them....preach the scripture. Nothing else. Scripture says "no flesh shall be justified by the deeds of the law" Bye bye copper, it means you are a sinner under judgment already damned to hell ... repent and believe the gospel.

You want to talk? Save it for the courtroom.

I always wondered if this were true in canada. thanks. good advice! i offered a neighbourhood kid a summer job on the condition his parents approved. 2 cops show up accusing me of pedophelia! nice neighbours, huh? nice cops. told them to fuck off. they did.
