Under the legislation, police can also place a charge of a provincial offence and issue a fine upwards of $5000.

Any items such as machetes, bear spray, axes, hatchets, knifes or sledgehammers in areas like parks, public events, shopping malls or lobbies for apartment buildings can be deemed dangerous under this legislation.
