A police officer, or the occupier of a premises, or a person authorized by the occupier may arrest without warrant any person he or she believes on reasonable and probable grounds to be on the premises in contravention of section two of the Trespass To Property Act

  1. True

  2. False

The correct answer is: True

The correct response is indeed True. According to the Trespass to Property Act of Ontario, a police officer, the occupier of premises, or anyone authorized by the occupier has the right to arrest without a warrant any individual believed, with reasonable and probable cause, to be contravening Section 2 of the Act on the premises. Section 2 pertains to entering properties without explicit permission, engaging in prohibited activities on the premises, or not leaving the property after being requested to do so. Essentially, if a person is thought to be trespassing, they can be arrested by the aforementioned individuals without the need for a warrant.
