Police may take advantage of a person who has been drinking. Police cannot arrest a person who has been drinking and is in a public place.

s. 31(5) of the Liquor Licence Act states, "A police officer may arrest without warrant any person whom he or she finds contravening subsection (4) if, in the opinion of the police officer, to do so is necessary for the safety of any person."

Therefore, an arrest can be made only when it is "necessary" AND "for the safety of any person". A person who is drunk in public, but not a safety concern cannot be arrested.

  • The D.R.P........ they fucked my life, harass me in the street, lie and accuse you of the worst possible shit even if it was NOT true. I am a Canadian citizen and have been since i was born. Most of us are hard working but these PIGS just think they have a higher authority over all of us while there in uniform ask ANY Durham region citizen how they feel about the D.R.P i am sure over 70% will not be impressed.

  • Durham needs police who are out to make life safe for its residence, Not become power hungry pigs like communist fucking china.
