Laws of Canada as they Pertain to Computer CrimeAdded by Papergrl
Description:
This paper examines the existing laws in the Criminal Code of Canada as they pertain to computer crime. For the purpose of this paper, the definition of computer crime will be that of the Investigation Bureau of the Ontario Provincial Police: any criminal activity involving the copy of, use of, removal of, interference with, access to, manipulation of computer systems, and/or their related functions, data or programs (Stinnissen, p.3). The objective is to assess the laws as they stand and examine whether Canada is falling behind the times or a leader in the international fight against computer crime. The paper begins with an overview of the applicable sections of the Criminal Code of Canada, followed by cases of computer criminals that have been arrested in Canada. Opinions on both sides of the debate are presented. The paper concludes that there are other remedies that could be implemented that would help win the war on computer crime to a much greater degree.
