      That's for sure. I've heard of "policing for profit" but this is ridiculous! Canada must be hard-up for cash or it's a really up-tight country. Silly! I'd definitely fight it and when he goes before tbe judge, sing him the song, I only hope he can sing well but it doesnt sound like he can. Maybe, just skip the singing and go straight to begging for mercy.

    My wife was also pulled over in Toronto and told the was going to be given a ticket for using the phone. That is till she said she was not using the phone (which wasn't even in the car). The cop said he saw her using her phone until she said she was singing to the music. He said she was talking on the phone for a while..." I was singing and knew the song" was her answer. He asked if he could search her purse and she said she could do better than that and emptied her purse on the seat and no phone was found.
    Just goes to prove that cops make guesses even when presented with hard evidence, she was not ticketed.

Exiting a small town I past a cop. Cop made a immediate U-turn and tailed me for about 2-3 km before finally turning around. No doubt it was the Ontario license plates.

    THESE EXAMPLES ARE NOT POLICING. These examples, are aligned with the kind of
    leadership there is in the PM's office, and will not be suffered much longer. IT'S ABUSE.

    i literally just passed a cop car about 25 minutes ago going the opposite direction and i had my subwoofers blasting lol, i usually turn it down if i see a cop but he was in a line of 4 other cars, i was waiting for him to turn around but he didn't bother.

    STUPID! I always sing songs while driving. I think the cop wasn't enjoying his life at all and he was like, well, since I'm not enjoying mine why would others enjoy theirs when I can simply ruin it.

    I've heard of "Outrageous" ticket's but this is obnoxious!! This is more like, "policing for profit, and I can't believe there's a law anywhere, even Canada, for screaming in public!? Does that mean if your child cries out or has a tantrum, that's a ticketed offence? Or how about a victim being mugged and "screams out", is that also a ticketed offence too? Ridiculous! I think those ofc were either having a bad day or they "Really Hate" that song!? I know i do. Canada must be hard-up, for cash!?
