General Principles
Where persons other than the accused have their privacy invaded during the search will be a factor in considering the reasonableness of the search.[1]
The manner of search must be reasonable.[2] The "manner" of search refers to the "physical way in which [the search] is carried out."[3]
- Disruptive Searches
Once an item has been searched and determined not to be relevant, "it should be returned to where it was found.”[4]
The "deliberate and unnecessary damage to property" and "deliberate and unnecessary disorder and disarray" of property may produce a breach of s. 8 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag
Section 25 intends to constrain police conduct "by the principles of proportionality, necessity and reasonableness".[5]
Regarding the use of force with respect to sentencing see State and Police Misconduct.
