Everyone here taking the rage-bait is clearly ignorant of the actual Canadian laws surrounding this.
Canadians have a legal right to defend themselves. Something not every country grants their citizens.
Several provincial trespass acts permit physical removal of trespassers.
So Canadians are well protected in confronting trespassers, so long as their actions are reasonable, IE conducive to removing the trespasser -or defending yourself.
Our laws work well. A fact that’s evidenced by our relatively peaceful society and the fact that stories like this (double charges) are a rarity.
