Police is our god?

I can monitor anything a scanner receives,what part of that dont you get?

Intercepting telecommunications, without the expressed permission of at least one party, is a criminal offence.

Interception of Communications

Interception

184. (1) Every one who, by means of any electro-magnetic, acoustic, mechanical or other device, wilfully intercepts a private communication is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years.


Enjoy.

[CDNBear]

That is to say, it's not illegal to "intercept" radio communications of any kind with receivers and such.

Wrong...

The key word there is willfully,you dont get it do you?
if the scanner receives it,i can listen to it,report me,see how much they laugh at you.

You already stated you willfully used a scanner to access private communications.

You bragged about it.

[Kakato]

report me then,and the thousands of others out there with a scanner like this available at any source.

 

[DurkaDurka]

radio waves are public property,if I can receive them then i can listen to them,you better check up a bit on stuff thats way over your head before commenting again.

As for the insults,fill your boots,shows how immature you are if thats all you got.

Report me to the RCMP,see how foolish you will look.

You were speaking of listening in on Cell Phone conversations, which is not legal in certain circumstances:

"Section 184(1) of the Criminal Code sets out the general rule that it is illegal to willfully intercept a private communication:

Every one who, by means of any electro-magnetic, acoustic, mechanical or other device, wilfully intercepts a private communication is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years."

Bear beat me to it.

 

[Kakato]

better charge every single person with a scanner then

If one of you could just provide a link to the law, that would save a whole lot of bickering! :smile:

[Kakato]

What was *wink*?

I had something in my eye.

 

[lone wolf]

Daddy tol' me not to step in that....

Sorry, Daddy.... I slipped

 

[Kakato]

Ah, I knew it would come back to stalking - after you pretty much (*wink*) alleged to snooping in on a private communication

Me and thousands of others who had the newer scanners.
It's not illegal to monitor anything it picks up.

It is to (*wink*) reveal contents.

 

[Kakato]

Nothing willfull about a scanner that picks up a cell phone right from the factory.

 

[Goober]

now who are the so called posse? Seems you ignore my questions.

Nothing willfull about a scanner that picks up a cell phone right from the factory.

Tons of things that are sold are legal for sale- Once you use then they are illegal- Think radar detectors.

Canada
According to the Radiocommunication Act,[11] it is completely legal to install, operate or possess a radio apparatus that is capable only of the reception of broadcasting (digital and analog, but not encrypted data) provided that private information is not passed on or disclosed to any other person(s) or party(s).

Really? You're going to rest on an un-cited wiki page...

How about we all just get back on topic and let the bad vibes rest- They do need a rest.

 

[Goober]

I dont see any cops outside yet,you will probably have to go to a JP and file charges there.

How about we go back to the case that started all of this - I believe it was an RCMP Officer.
