Your charter of rights MAY have been violated…

They cannot search you… UNLESS it is due process AFTER an arrest. (without your consent)

They can pull the plain view doctrine on you if they see something illegal (drug relate items, weapon related items etc.)/REPORTED stolen property in plain view in your back seat. They can use this doctrine to further search your vehicle and seize items.

Plain view doctrine - Wikipedia

SO depending on the situation, IF they had “probable cause” which stems from an actual theft in relation to a vehicle matching the description of yours, then unfortunately they had the right to search your vehicle and have you sitting in their backseat (for their safety)

HOWEVER if they made up a bullshit story to search your vehicle and seize items and they did not have any probable cause what so ever then your Canadian Charter of Rights have been violated and thats pretty serious (murder cases have been thrown you due to right violations) so definately look into wether or not the cop had the right to do what he did, and if not he can be in trouble.

I guess then my charter of rights has been violated.

I was not arrested … but they still searched my car and seized my property.

Im going to be hitting the librarys to do some research… This is total bs and i feel violated.

if u know of any good Canadian civil law books dealing with this, plz post it up.
