Romario Clarke, a 20 year-old from Oshawa, is facing charges of breaking and entering as well as unauthorized possession of a firearm.Similar incidents across the country have tested Canada’s self-defence laws and the limits of a homeowner’s right to defend their place of residence.say someone is not guilty of an offence if they respond to force or threat of force against them or a person they’re protecting, or repel someone entering without permission or threatening their property.
Self-defence is a “universal human right,” but how it’s interpreted and what it means for the defender is inconsistent, said Burlew. While some police and prosecutors are sympathetic when, for instance, a homeowner uses a gun to ward off attackers, others can take a harder line, he said.
