Since I have no more names on your side, I'll take the liberty of asking you a few questions.
I would like a clarification. The new subsection 445.1(1) stipulates the following:
Every one commits an offence who, wilfully and without lawful excuse, kills, maims, wounds, poisons or injures a law enforcement animal while it is aiding a law enforcement officer in carrying out that officer’s duties...
Does it have to be known that it's a law enforcement animal or a dog accompanying a police officer? For example, I am thinking of demonstrations where police officers are not necessarily uniformed. Is knowing that a person is accompanied by a law enforcement dog essential for an offence to be committed?
