Description

This text is written for University and College students who wish to study critical aspects of Criminal Law in depth but who do not intend to pursue a career in the Law. How legislators and judges respond to the threats posed by constantly evolving and adaptive forms of criminal behaviour, aided and abetted by increasingly sophisticated digital technology, is a topic that is of great interest to students in many disciplines. The text covers the legal definition of obscenity, criminal harassment, hate speech, limitations on freedom of speech, defamatory libel, harmful statements directed against identifiable groups, robbery, breaking and entering, child pornography, identity theft, definitions of extortion and fraud, sexual assaults against adults, young persons and children, conspiracy, advertising sexual services, digital theft, and many other examples of digitally-assisted crimes that may cause great harm and have generated widespread public concern throughout Canada.
