Government says change will include repeat DUI offenders
The province is introducing changes to its civil forfeiture laws that will expand the number of crimes covered under the Seizure of Criminal Property Act.
“We are committed to ensuring property is taken out of the hands of criminals,” said Minister of Corrections and Policing Christine Tell in a statement.
The act allows the province to seize property it believes was part of an unlawful activity, such as a vehicle used to deal drugs or a property where a marijuana grow-operation was located.
