Principes généraux

Voir également: Arrestations sans mandat, Arrestations avec mandat, Obligation de comparaître d'un accusé sans arrestation, et Détention initiale après l'inculpation

La mise en liberté d'un détenu est régie par la partie XVI du Code intitulée « Obligation de comparaître devant un juge et mise en liberté provisoire ». Cette partie vise notamment à réduire au minimum, « dans la mesure compatible avec l'intérêt public, l'incarcération avant le procès des personnes accusées d'infractions criminelles ».^[1]

L'agent de la paix qui arrête un accusé peut le libérer en vertu de l'art. 498 ou 499.

Dans certaines circonstances, un agent peut simplement délivrer une citation à comparaître en vertu de l'art. 497 ou renvoyer l'affaire à une audience de renvoi judiciaire en vertu de l'art. 496.

Principes de retenue

Principe de la retenue
493.1 Dans toute décision prise au titre de la présente partie, l’agent de la paix, le juge de paix ou le juge cherchent en premier lieu à mettre en liberté le prévenu à la première occasion raisonnable et aux conditions les moins sévères possible dans les circonstances, notamment celles qu’il peut raisonnablement respecter, tout en tenant compte des motifs visés aux paragraphes 498(1.1) ou 515(10), selon le cas.

a) des prévenus autochtones;
b) des prévenus appartenant à des populations vulnérables qui sont surreprésentées au sein du système de justice pénale et qui souffrent d’un désavantage lorsqu’il s’agit d’obtenir une mise en liberté au titre de la présente partie.

Pouvoirs d'un agent de la paix

Après avoir décidé d'exercer son pouvoir d'arrestation sans mandat, l'agent de la paix peut, selon les accusations, être en mesure de

les libérer avec l'intention de leur signifier une assignation à comparaître ultérieurement ;
émettre une citation à comparaître ;
les libérer sous promesse ou
les détenir et les amener devant un juge ou un juge de paix.

Pouvoirs en cas d'arrestation sans mandat

Mise en liberté — arrestation sans mandat
498 (1) Sous réserve du paragraphe (1.1), lorsqu’une personne a été arrêtée sans mandat pour une infraction autre qu’une infraction mentionnée à l’article 469 et n’a pas été conduite devant un juge de paix ni mise en liberté en vertu d’une autre disposition de la présente partie, un agent de la paix doit, dès que cela est matériellement possible, la mettre en liberté si, selon le cas :
a) il a l’intention d’obliger cette personne à comparaître par voie de sommation;
b) il a délivré à cette personne une citation à comparaître;
c) cette personne lui a remis une promesse.

Exception relative aux infractions commises hors du territoire

498
[omis (1) and (1.01)]

Exception

(1.1) The peace officer shall not release the person if the peace officer believes, on reasonable grounds,

(a) that it is necessary in the public interest that the person be detained in custody or that the matter of their release from custody be dealt with under another provision of this Part [Pt. XVI – Mesures concernant la comparution d’un prévenu devant un juge de paix et la mise en liberté provisoire (art. 493 à 529.5)], having regard to all the circumstances including the need to
(i) establish the identity of the person,

(ii) secure or preserve evidence of or relating to the offence,

(iii) prevent the continuation or repetition of the offence or the commission of another offence, or

(iv) ensure the safety and security of any victim of or witness to the offence; or

(b) that, if the person is released from custody, the person will fail to attend court in order to be dealt with according to law.

Termes définis: "person" (s. 2)

Section 498 directs an officer to release an accused as soon as practicable, unless one of the reasons listed in (1.1). One of the "reasonable public interest" grounds include the need to detain a person until they are sober and safe to be released.^[1]

The factors set out in 487(1.1) and 498(1.1) is not a closed list.^[2] Other circumstances include an offender charged for impaired driving who can be held "until that individual is sober or can be picked up by a sober person."^[3] There is no strict obligation to make an inquiry into whether a pick up is available but a failure to make any inquiry could affect the reasonableness of the decision to hold the accused. ^[4]

Impaired Driving Investigations

Factors that the police should consider when deciding whether to release a detainee in an impaired driving investigation include:^[1]

the accused's blood alcohol level,
whether the accused was charged with impaired operation,
his or her level of comprehension,
that the accused is prohibited by statute from driving a motor vehicle (the administrative license suspension),
that the accused's vehicle would have been impounded,
whether there was a responsible person available to pick up the accused although the officer-in-charge has no authority to bind the responsible person as a surety would be bound,
whether the accused had a criminal record and if so, its contents,
whether the accused had outstanding charges,
his or her attitude and that by drinking and driving the accused has recently exhibited poor judgment.

The analysis should not simply be limited to the BAC level results.^[2]

Timing of Release ("As soon as practicable")

See also Right Against Arbitrary Detention

Under both s. 497 and 498, a peace officer or officer in charge must release a suspect "as soon as practicable".

If the suspect is being held for court, s. 503 requires that police bring him to court "without unreasonable delay".

Post-arrest detention is permissible under the exceptions listed in s. 497(1.1)(a) and s. 498(1.1)(a). This includes detention for the purpose of "securing" evidence including obtaining a statement from the accused.^[1]

Fsilure to comply with the duty in s. 503 to bring the accused as soon as practicable to the justice can be factor in determining voluntariness of a statement.^[2]

Timing of Laying an Information ("As soon as practicable")

Once an accused is released, the officer is required under s. 505 to lay an information "as soon as practicable":

Time within which information to be laid in certain cases

505 If an appearance notice has been issued to an accused under section 497 [avis de comparution par un agent de la paix], or if an accused has been released from custody under section 498 [libération par un agent de la paix (arrestation sans mandat)] or 503 [taking person before justice after arrest], an information relating to the offence alleged to have been committed by the accused or relating to an included or other offence alleged to have been committed by them shall be laid before a justice as soon as practicable after the issuance or release, and in any event before the time stated in the appearance notice or undertaking for their attendance in court.

This provision came into force on 18 décembre 2019.

Attendance from Release

If an accused is released by summons, appearance notice, promise to appear, or undertaking, as discussed above, and the accused fails to attend on the date specified, the justice may issue a warrant under s. 502 for the arrest of the accused. The warrant may be "endorsed" pursuant to s. 507(6) otherwise the warrant will be considered "unendorsed".

If the accused attends before the justice, at which point the information will have been laid, the judge will either confirm the "process" (that is, the release mechanism used to compel attendance) or else will cancel it under s. 508.

Replacement by justice of undertaking with order

(2) The accused or the prosecutor may, in the absence of consent between them, apply to a justice for a release order under subsection 515(1) [ordonnance de mise en liberté sans conditions] or (2) [ordonnance de mise en liberté avec conditions] to replace an undertaking given by the accused under paragraph 498(1)(c) [mise en liberté de détention – arrestation sans mandat – promesse à un agent de la paix], 499(b) [mise en liberté par un agent de la paix (mandat d'arrêt) — engagement] or 503(1.1)(b) [réévaluation continue de la détention de 24 heures – libération sur promesse] with the order.
