You must be dealing with SRD in Lethbridge.

Ask the case officer to tell you who the crown prosecutor assigned to the case is.

Contact the crown prosecutor and get every one of your questions answered before going to court. An assistant might be provided to help you.

Thank you very much Mr. Dago.

Best Wishes.

I found the facts in the court news in the Taber Times. Jacob Giesbrecht and Isaac Dick were convicted of fishing out of season and undersized fish. It happened At the forks May 3. Jacob had 7 fish and was fined $2000. Isaac had 13 fish and was fined $4000. Both forfeitedt there gear. Isaac is in Mexico right now. Bet he will not be back.

I wish they were forced to take a course letting them know why is wrong what they do. Plus some community work planting trees or a fish farm.

Isaac is a Mexican citizen now and Jacob is about to claim bankruptcy...Sweet justice! I think they should do away with the fines and throw there a**es in the local penn for a couple of months. 7 and 13 fish must have temporarily forgot how to count...oh wait fishing season was not even open!!!

Court imposed fines aren't included in or extinguished by a bankruptcy proceeding; he's still going to be on the hook that 'debt to society'. But as usual, recovering it may be another matter.

Mr. Dago.

There appears to be quite a poaching operation going on poor old Chin.

Please keep us posted on your case.

I wonder why some of these parasites are never deported.

Who ever gets deported for crimes in Canada.

They can't even find the ones who are under a deportation order

And if you're of native descent, you also get singled out for poaching by the immigrants.

People can be identified from being mennonite, ukrainian, european, asian, the list goes on.

The irony of this racism from the fishing community is amazing. The only label here should be "poacher", that we can likely all agree on (assuming they were poaching :-) ).
booooom! Preach brother!

It's not Racism. It's guys coming from Mexico carrying the same attitude towards the law as they had while in Mexico.

Not much different than trying to implement Sharia law here...respect what we have here otherwise head back.
