§ 612Section 612Offence

Source excerpt

Section 612 sets fines for offences under specified sections of the Act, and adds an 18-month maximum imprisonment term for offences under the fourth paragraph.

612. Unless otherwise specially provided, every person found guilty of an offence under section 604 or who contravenes any other provision of this Act commits an offence and is liable to a fine of $2,000 to $150,000 in the case of a natural person and $3,000 to $200,000 in any other case. Every person who is found guilty of an offence under section 602, 606, 607, 610 or 611 or under a provision of a regulation the violation of which constitutes an offence under subparagraph 15 of the first paragraph of section 599 is liable to a fine of $2,500 to $150,000 in the case of a natural person and $3,500 to $200,000 in any other case. In the case of an offence under section 603, 605 or 608, the minimum fine is $5,000 to $150,000 in the case of a natural person and $15,000 to $200,000 in any other case. In the case of an offence under section 609 or 611.1, the minimum fine is $5,000 to $1,500,000 in the case of a natural person and $30,000 to $2,000,000 in any other case. Despite article 231 of the Code of Penal Procedure (chapter C-25.1), any person who has committed an offence under the fourth paragraph of this section is liable, regardless of the fine set out in the applicable penal provision, to a maximum term of imprisonment of 18 months. 2000, c. 29, s. 612; 2008, c. 7, s. 72; 2025, c. 16, s. 91.

§ 613Section 613Offence

Source excerpt

Fines and imprisonment terms increase for repeat offences under section 612 or the regulations.

613. The amounts of the fines prescribed by section 612 or by the regulations are doubled for a second offence and tripled for a third or subsequent offence. The maximum term of imprisonment is increased to five years less a day for a second or subsequent offence. In addition, if an offender commits an offence under a provision of this Act after having previously been found guilty of any such offence and if, without regard to the amounts prescribed for a second or subsequent offence, the minimum fine to which the offender was liable for the first offence was equal to or greater than the minimum fine prescribed for the second offence, the minimum and maximum fines and, if applicable, the term of imprisonment prescribed for the second offence become, if the prosecutor so requests, those prescribed in the case of a second offence or, if applicable, a third or subsequent offence. This section applies to prior findings of guilty pronounced in the two-year period preceding the second offence or, if the minimum fine to which the offender was liable for the prior offence was that prescribed in the fourth paragraph of section 612, pronounced in the five-year period preceding the second offence. The fines for a third or subsequent offence apply if the penalty imposed for the prior offence was the penalty for a second or subsequent offence. 2000, c. 29, s. 613; 2025, c. 16, s. 91.
