Description

Alberta’s environmental legislation sets out clear rules and obligations for the protection and wise use of the environment. If these rules are not followed, the government has a range of enforcement options, one of which is prosecution. If a prosecution ends in a guilty plea or a finding of guilt by a trial judge, the case ends in a sentencing. The court can decide to adopt a creative sentencing order as part of the sentence. In 2012, three new creative sentence orders were initiated by the court.Once the order has been adopted by the court, it is the responsibility of the environmental investigations liaison with Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development to follow up and ensure the order is carried through as laid out in the court document. An order can last up to three years or can even be extended with permission from the court. As of December 31, 2012, another 10 orders created in previous years are still being tracked.
